Kayda's Time trials

Kayda has been working really hard to get her strokes down so she could join the swim team.  We did a couple sessions of swim lessons and then I worked with her whenever I could.  Auntie Kina even came down and helped one afternoon.  She's still working on figuring out breaststroke, she is having some trouble getting the kicking action to whip around the way it should.  She's well on her way with the other strokes. Her first practice was April 4th.

 Her first, and only dive "clinic" thus far was April 7th.


After just 5 practices it was time for their season beginning with time trials.  Kayda did great!  She was neck and neck with a girl from the higher level swim team.  Kayda still has to learn her flip turns, which the other girl already knows, but she was still able to beat her on the 50 fly.  She was only a second behind on the freestyle.
