A ‘reflex’ is an involuntary action that your body carries out in response to an external event, without you even having to think about it. Your baby is born with a number of natural reflexes which we develop and reinforce during our swimming courses to help them learn to swim.

There are three significant reflexes:-
• Amphibian
• Laryngeal (Gag)
• Diving
