5 Ways Swimming Lessons can Benefit Children With Special Needs
Did you know world famous Michael Phelps was diagnosed with ADHD? In fact, Micheal Phelps’ ADHD was actually the main reason why he became a well-known Olympic swimmer! He shared “I could go fast in the pool, it turned out, in part because being in the pool slowed down my mind. In the water, I felt, for the first time, in control.” Yay to a newfound coping mechanism- swimming! Regardless of the range of special needs, swimming can help! #swimming #childrenswimming #health
