Tyler Reed , owner of Triton Aquatic Training in Tampa , Florida , recently went viral after teaching the "mermaid mantra" to a young student who was clearly having a hard time learning to swim.

In a video, Reed encourages the little girl to repeat the mantra and, through sobs, we hear the most adorable little voice in the whole world repeat, “I'm beeg. I'm bave. I’m boobooball”.
