Shaan and Kiran have been taking swim classes since July at the YMCA in Princeton.
Shaan was very afraid of the water at first but has progressed quite well

He now take jumps into the deep end of the pool and appears to be quite comfortable in the water. He just graduated from pike to pollywog.

Kiran had no problem going into the water at first but did NOT like to get her face wet.

The swim classes have been a confidence booster for both kids. Now Shaan wants to play soccer and is more willing to try new things. Kiran now puts her head under the water.
