Anyone Wanna Learn to Swim?

We can hardly wait for summertime weather… well actually for swimming weather!  Every time this New Mexico sunshine has teased us since early April the three of us get in the kitchen, whip up some Peanut Butter- Jelly and Potato Chip Sandwiches and head out to our tiny deck and even tinier pool for the afternoon 🙂

Ava loves the ankle deep water but this summer it’s time to start learning HOW TO SWIM in the big pool!  Kurt and I both spent many summer months playing in the pool, swimming on swim team and even coaching swim team during college!  Learning to swim is not an option in this family and thankfully we have our very own swim instructor (who’s not a boring mom or dad) to teach our kiddo!

Meet Kevin Herig- Our wonderful and multi-talented brother.

He has been swimming since he was Ava’s age and teaching lessons for many summers now for various sports clubs, and private organizations.  This summer (for the second year) he is teaching group and private lessons on his own at a neighbor’s pool.  For those of you who haven’t met him, he is the ultimate “fun uncle”!  Kids of all ages just love him, he has a unique approach, fun-loving nature, and a great  technique for teaching your kids how to swim and ENJOY it!

Leave me a message or give him a call if you are interested in Swim Lessons!  He will be giving lessons in the far Northeast Heights.

    Oh how perfect Dani, I was just going to sign us up for swim lessons this weekend but was really annoyed that they didn’t offer much for Xander this year at the City Pool. Just the same class we did last summer. Can you send me details? Price, days and age’s? Xander will be 22months this month. I’d really like to do a group class again, since he doesn’t go to daycare and doesn’t get to hang out with other little one’s much, would love to hear what he’s offering. Let me know, Thanks!

      Hey Crystal- glad to hear your interest! At this point he’s really flexible with the little ones- he’s been thinking of the best way to do the under 3 year olds—I told him maybe having a weekly or bi-weekly class all summer might be fun- or you could do the typical two week session… what do you think would work best for your schedule? We can wait and see if he gets some other 2 year olds interested in the same schedule as you or you can make your own group of up to 4 kids around the same age or skill level, he’s very open to doing whatever you’d like! Depending on what you decide maybe it would work out to have Ava be in a class with Xander. Feel free to email me sorenson.dani@gmail if you want to try to figure something out! Or I will keep you posted when his schedule of classes (and the ages of the kids) firms up 🙂

    Hi Dani! How are you? Your family is beautiful…Little girls are so much fun aren’t they? We love it!

    Anyhow, I am interested in the swim lessons and my girls have 3 other girls that they play with that might also be interested…I will let them know!

    So should I call him or could I get info from you?

      Hi Erica! We love our little gal… life just seems to be getting more and more fun (and challenging)!! Give Kevin a call for more info on pricing and scheduling! Hope some Swim Lessons work out for you 🙂
