Swim Instructor Uses Mantra For His Frightened Little Mermaids

June 8, 2023

Swim lessons can indeed be scary for little kids. It's not uncommon for young children to feel fearful or anxious when they first start learning how to swim.

To help children overcome their fear of swimming, it's important to create a positive and supportive environment.

That's why swim instructor Tyler Reed at Triton Aquatic Training in Tampa uses a mantra: "I'm big. I'm brave. I'm beautiful."

Well, in this little mermaid's case it was "I'm big, I'm bae, I'm boobooball".

"Yes… swim lessons can sometimes be scary but when we say our motivational mermaid mantras out loud, we do anything!" Reed captioned the video.
