A typical curriculum of women's swimming lessons would include:
Water safety: We will teach adult students how to be safe in and around water, including pool rules and basic water survival skills.
Breathing techniques: Instructors will teach students how to coordinate their breathing with the swimming environment, which is crucial for swimming.
Basic floating: Students will learn how to float on their front (easier than laying back to float). Floating with the face in the water is the foundation for swimming.
Arm and leg movements: Students will learn how to use their arms and legs to propel themselves through the water.
Strokes: Instructors will teach basic freestyle and breaststroke, and how to swim them correctly and efficiently.
Endurance building: Breathing with the strokes are the key for swimming longer distances. In the process endurance was built and overall fitness level improved.
Advanced techniques: Instructors may teach other strokes such as backstroke and butterfly, and also treading water where applicable.
Actual lesson progress and skills taught would depend on the skill level and overall progress of the students. We tend to offer a flexible programme to cater best for our students.
