17th batch of trained Lifesavers

4th of June 2009.

The final 2 girls of the class graduated Lifesaving 123 to join the rest of the people who have completed theirs on 14th of May 2009. They will now embark on the journey to complete their next level with my 12th batch of BM & CPR.

Heartfelt congratulations to them on getting through their Lifesaving 123. My 17th batch of trained lifesavers.

7 girls and 4 boys. The first time I had a class in which the girls outnumbered the boys. I hope this will not be the last as I aim to introduce and train more girls in Lifesaving skills and knowledge.

Congratulations to:-
Vanessa Chung (Self-proclaimed Awesomest); Eng Hui Zhen; Eng Hui Juan; Chen Xuyan; Wong Xin Zhi; Samantha Lee; Joceyln Tan; Wee Hong Ri; Wee Hong Yu; Seah Xiang Yu; Shahron on getting past this 1st barrier of knowledge to progress onwards.

Understanding our body.

Ever wondered how come our body reacts in such a way? Intrigued by our body? I have found 2 links here. Part 1 and Part 2. They can shed some light to us on some of the way our body behaves.

And also in conjuncture with the aim to promote good hand washing, this post can also serve as a reminder on how to wash hands properly. Do you know how to wash your hands?

Egg-Beater Kick

In Lifesaving we have to use Egg-Beater Kick. I have found some sport science related to the kick. Click here to view. I have also found the video from youtube. Quite a nice kick which she performed...
