    Being a mermaid is about so much more than just swimming in a mermaid tail, it is a way of life. It is a journey of discovering who you are and who your are meant to be and of sharing a passion for the water with others and forging friendships that will last a life time. It is about believing in yourself through the thick and thin and encouraging others to do the same.
    Being a mermaid is about keeping that little spark alive, that little spark that reminds us that anything is possible with a monofin, some fabric and dream.
    Welcome to the Vancouver Mermaid Pod!

    My grandma told me a long while ago "You don't need to like everyone, but you need to get along with them". I try to live with this, finding ways to get along, even if it means agreeing that we cannot agree and find a midwaypoint for us both to deal with. On other notes, I got tired of swimming alone so now I'm hosting a mermeet. Hopefully I can do it again in the future and get more people in tails.

    I simply convinced two other girl teens like me to buy tails! We actually just went on our very first swim as a pod today. Previously we would go in twos but today it was all three of us! And now we're a pod and are having a mermaid sleepover tomorrow before school starts. :)

    This works if pools are mermaid friendly. Unfortunately in the U.S. not many pools are mermaid friendly. The Outer Banks in N.C. Is mermaid friendly but, the YMCA is not.

    Such great advice!! I’ve definitely started coming out of my seashell a lot more since moving out of state. I’ve joined a pod near me, but I’m still a little hesitant to go because I don’t have a tail to swim with. Other mers have offered theirs, but I have a hard time using other people’s things. I may go just to scout things out. Thank you for the advice, and I hope that you do start using MerMom in your brand!! Thank you for caring! 💜🧜🏼‍♀️

      Maggie Fluffy There was a hurricane hitting my state. Where I live hurricanes hit my state a lot. I love mermaids, maritime history, marine life, when I was a kid I had two strokes. I did aqua therapy at the pool. I think mermaiding can be great therapy for my leg, arm, balance, etc. so that’s why I want to be a merman. Plus I want to do cosplay too.

      Courtney Mermaid it’s reaaally strange. It says “Additional Required Information”. Then there’s three “Registration Questions” to fill out, but it doesn’t describe what that is or how to complete it. If you skip the questions and try to submit everything else it says you can’t move on without filling them
