My son is 12 as well, he will be 13 in April. We weren't sure how he would react to the sensation of breathing underwater. Although he isn't quite a "natural" and had a moment of controlled panic, to my surprise he did much better than me. While my husband and son were tooling around the bottom of the pool having a ball I was struggling to stay underwater. You know in class when the instructor says "a small number of people will find that small tinge of claustrophobia they didn't know they had"? Yep, that's me.another congrats. My son, 12 almost 13, is still not quite 'ready' for diving. Interested, yet still apprehensive. I can only wait for the day...
We are almost done with pool work and will try our skills in a bigger puddle next week.
