Lesson 1
How to Complete the Course Each lesson includes exercise descriptions and short instructional videos that we recommend watching before coming to the pool. You will also find a main video lesson that you can follow in the water together with your baby by placing your phone on the poolside and playing the video. Each final lesson video includes exercises from the previous lesson along with new exercises. By progressing through all lessons and stages of the course, both you and your baby will develop muscle memory while gradually increasing the amount of time spent in the water. This step-by-step approach helps build confidence, consistency, and comfort in the aquatic environment.

Lesson 2
This practical lesson includes a review section from Lesson 1, as well as the new exercises introduced in Lesson 2. All upcoming lessons will follow the same structure. This approach will help both you and your baby master the material, develop muscle memory, and gradually increase your time in the pool up to 40 minutes. By consistently reviewing previous exercises while introducing new ones, learning becomes more effective, comfortable, and enjoyable for both parent and child.

Aqua Massage

Reaching for a toy

In this exercise you hold the baby in support “parallel” Your bent knee creates extra support. You continue to hold the baby under the armpit, and with your free hand you throw the toy forward. After the throw of the toy, you change the support for “armpit” and move the baby to your right. Our task in this exercise is to catch the baby’s attention to the toy and to form the goal which the baby will try to reach and to activate the work of his arms and legs.

Tummy-backward

This exercise is done in a ” scoop” support. Here you roll your baby from your stomach into a tilted position onto his/her back. Your lower hand, which supports your baby by the thigh, creates an extra movement pushing your baby’s hips forward and backward. Your task is to make the movement as wide as possible, thereby creating an extra fluid massage for your baby.

Snake forward – straight return

With the “snake forward – straight return” support, you rock your baby forward slightly, while keeping him/her on his/her belly, then you go backward.
