How to dive

My sister and I went to the swimming pool today with my mom and my sisters friend.

My mom was teaching us how to dive. We tried a few different things to get it right.

  • When we came home we decided to look for some extra tips. I also asked the life guard for some tips but it did not help me much LOL. My feet kept going in first or else 'belly flop' OUCH.
  • I found this image on http://www.poolinspect.com/diving.html

It takes a bit of practice and a bit of confidence. I wonder how long it takes to get right?






After the diving practice we did some somersaults in the water and worked on getting htem right. That is fun. I also worked on my breathing 'to the side' for one of the swimming strokes (Crawl). I worked at the edge and also with a board.
