Baby swimming is poetry, a continuation of life's beginning. An experience with all the essentials
for the baby to feel 'at home' again. Water is the origin of life. We are borne of water
and continue to develop in water. For nine months, the baby floats in its mother's womb, safely
surrounded by warm amniotic fluid. The pool allows the baby to once again float freely
in water. The warm water envelops the child, its movements calm and soft, and instead of
its mother's heartbeat, the baby perceives the loving words and frequent smiles of Mum and
Dad. This is how it should be.
With 24 years of experience as a baby swimming instructor, Terje Stakset has many things to
share: How to communicate with your child in the pool? What can children be taught at various
age-levels? What are the things you can do? What should you avoid? Additionally, Stakset
wishes to share his knowledge of all the various exercises and games involving water, developed
and integrated through many years of experience
