Swim lessons are back at FitPlan!
Whether you are learning to swim or looking to improve your technique our swim Coach Robin can help you! Lessons are available for those ages 5 and up!
Robin was ranked top eighth in Canada during her competitive years. She has a background as a private swim instructor on Martha’s Vineyard for over twenty years, helping adults and children of all levels and abilities learn to swim and to love water. She also coached the first ever Martha’s Vineyard high school swim team, and developed the first ever Special Needs swim team on the island, known as the Orcas. She is now in Hyannis with Cape Cod rehab offering swim lessons or stroke technique tips for those who want to improve their strokes.
Finally, summer season has arrived and some of our activities may be taking place outdoors. We mostly think of hydration as replenishing our water intake only, but often choose processed energy drinks over natural whole fruits. Fruits are not only packed with liquids but also antioxidants protecting our body’s cells from oxidative damage
