Swimmer 1/2 2025

These beginner swimmers develop foundational swimming skills and gain confidence in the water.  Skills include breath control, submersion, front and back floats, glides, and opening eyes underwater.  Treading water is learnt in a lifejacket to learn the basic movements first. They also will learn flutter kick with a kickboard and add that flutter kick to a basic front crawl while wearing a lifejacket.

Swimmers will gain comfort in deeper water (over swimmers head) and learn treading water without a lifejacket. Swimmers will be challenged by the introduction of various skills including, flutter kick on their front, back, and side, vertical whip kick with an aid, and swimming front crawl and back crawl for 10 m. Swimmers will get to work on their Swim to Survive skills and be introduced to interval training.

these lessons are twice a day for one week, for 30 minutes
