My brother in law who's training to get on the fire department told me about this. I was skeptical until I watched the video. I'm going to try and get some more info on it and maybe find a class. If you're interested, let me know.

I watched on the Today Show, the people who teach this type of swimming lesson. It was very intersting to watch. Brings on lots of emotions.

Wow - scary and cool at the same time.

i've seen that before, but the first time i did i was in tears. it's so cool! part of me wants to jump in and save him and part of me says to myself, duh there's a person there with a camera... they're not going to let the kid drown. i've heard the lessons are really tough to go through. more so for the parents i guess.

That is amazing! I had mixed emotions but I knew it was safe! I think I am going to teach my kiddos to do that!

Thanks for sharing!

Very cool. I'm like the others here, it was hard to just sit and watch. I kept thinking, "somebody get that baby out of the pool!!"
so glad I don't have a pool. But, it would still be smart to get those lessons anyway.

Wow, that's pretty crazy but I think it's a good idea.
