https://swimswam.com/7-olympic-swimmers-who-use-visualization/

Visualization is a mental training skill that swimmers can use to boost confidence. Here's how some of the top swimmers on the planet use it.

Fearing for our children when it comes to water is perfectly natural. After birth defects, #drowning is the #1 cause of death for children ages 1 – 4, according to the American Academy of Pediatrics. Some #swim lessons programs make promises that they can make your child “drown-proof” or “pool-safe,” but the truth is that no child can ever truly be 100% safe around water. However, the “water-safe” myth is muddying the waters and is actually adding to the risk of child drownings.

While no one can make kids truly "water-safe" we can make kids "water-safer." Here are some smart measures that can make your child safer around water.

Take advantage of the path of maximum propulsion.

With all of the professional triathletes and elite swimmers we've worked with, we've found that 'rocking' side-to-side to 35-55 degrees to be best for most people. Not 'rolling' all the way onto your side to 90 degrees.
