ACADEMY
In 2018 he launched his swimming academy 'Swim & Health Guilherme Guido' in Limeira, Brazil. "My goal is to have 500 swim schools and more than one million kids doing the programme. That's the goal. The programme has four concepts, which were derived from famous psychologists such as [Lev] Vygotsky and [Jean] Piaget. I have a psychologist and physical educators with me in the programme. The kids need to think positive, and to learn more about their bodies and to eat healthy. Also, the feelings of happiness and curiosity are key," (Instagram profile, 11 Sep 2018; swimehealth.com.br, 13 Sep 2018; digitaljournal.com, 06 Jan 2020)
