This course is for anyone who wants to learn front crawl (freestyle)!
The aim of these lessons is get participants swimming front crawl. We start with small, simple exercises to build confidence and control which are important when you learn to swim front crawl. We then move on to building up your front crawl technique as the lessons progress.
Shape, stability and breathing are all important techniques we will work on. We have two instructors pool side to give you regular feedback, comments and demonstrations.
The course takes place in the main pool where we cannot stand at the bottom - so participants must be confident in the water and be able to do some breaststroke swimming before signing up for this course. It is recommended that you are able to swim 200 meters continuously without stopping before signing up for this course.
