Improving Techniques Swim Lessons | Refresher
Course
Day 1
We introduce ourselves to your child and we read
them my new book Learn to Swim with Mr. Blue. Then
we take them in the water and we have them show
us how they swim to the other side of the pool
first on their stomach and then on their back.
We do this so we can see the areas that we need
to work with them. We first help them to work on
their arm stroke and straight leg kick by having
them use a kick stick to reach and pull and to
kick.
Day 2
We review the skills from day 1 and then we work
on building some distance with the arms and the
kicking using the kick stick. We start to introduce
rhythmic breathing and have your child start to
swim from one side of the pool to the other side
using this technique. Then we start to work on the
arms of the back stroke showing proper technique
with proper arm placement.
Day 3
We review the skills from Day 1 and 2 and then
we work on having your child learn the kicks for
the breast stroke and butterfly using the kick
stick and an underwater dolphin kick. Your child
will start to swim distance with their freestyle
stroke breathing to the side and their backstroke
with a flutter kick slightly under the water.
Day 4
Depending on your child's age and skill level
we review all of the skills from Day 1-3 and now
your child will learn the arms for the breast stroke
(pull, breath, kick and glide) as well as the arms
for the butterfly. (hourglass shape) Your child
will also be introduced to diving in the deep end
and will also learn to dive out into the water for
a start to a race, not straight down as this could
be dangerous if the water is too swallow. We will
also submerge from inside the pool to the bottom
to retrieve objects off the bottom of the pool.
Day 5
Your child will have their swim test in which
they will have to jump in the water with their
shirt, shorts and shoes over their bathing suit
and swim from one side of the pool to the other
long ways using a combination of all four strokes.
Then before they get out of the pool they need
to tread water for 10 seconds in the deep end.
The last day you as the parent can get in the pool
with us and learn all the techniques to practice
with your child to help them continue to progress
in their new skills they learned.
All of Swim with Mr. Blue's lessons are private
one-on-one instruction and include five 30-minute-consecutive-day-sessions.
