... Regaining the standing positionIt is essential that non-swimmers being introduced to the water, are taught how to regain the standing position very early in their swimming development. This will help to develop confidence and is also an important safety skill. Initially this should be introduced using buoyancy aids or floats. From the prone position Practice • push and glide to the wall (with float) Teaching Points • lift head • tuck up knees • allow the feet to go to the bottom • stand up Practice • push and glide to the wall (without a float) Teaching Points • pull downwards and backwards with both arms • both feet down together Practice • push and glide away from the wall (without float) Teaching Points • relax - do not hurry • allow the legs to move towards the bottom of the pool Swimming Lessons GlamorganButterflyButterfly is the most recent of the strokes and is second in relation to speed, to Front Crawl Although the competitive Butterfly stroke is physically demanding, variations on the theme of Butterfly can be enjoyable activities that need not be too difficult. The potential to compete is developed gradually and learning the stroke should be fun. Babies often produce a dolphin type leg action without prompting. Body Position Key Points • prone, face down with the crown of the head leading • horizontal with an undulating, wave-like movement from head to toe • shoulders are kept level Swimming Lessons GlamorganFloatingProne Float
This horizontal float can be a continuation of a prone push and glide. It can also be achieved from standing by lowering the shoulders and gently leaning forwards to lie face down in the water. A star float or X position is an easy variation. A count of ten is enough time to sustain the face down position. Key Points • take a breath • lean forward to face down position • lift the legs • make a star shape • relax • keep the head down Swimming Lessons GlamorganBarry Island-Vale of Glamorgan (near Barry) Capel Llanilltern-Vale of Glamorgan (near Caerphilly) Cardiff-Cardiff City (near Penarth) Clawddcoch-Vale of Glamorgan (near Pencoed) Craig Penllyn-Vale of Glamorgan (near Pencoed) Dinas Powys-Vale of Glamorgan (near Penarth) East Aberthaw-Vale of Glamorgan (near Barry) East Brook-Vale of Glamorgan (near Penarth) Eglwys Brewis-Vale of Glamorgan (near Barry) Fonmon-Vale of Glamorgan (near Barry) Font y gary-Vale of Glamorgan (near Barry) Llantwit Major-Vale of Glamorgan (near Bridgend) Llysworney-Vale of Glamorgan (near Pencoed) Lower Penarth-Vale of Glamorgan (near Penarth) Merthyr Dyfan-Vale of Glamorgan (near Barry) Michaelston le Pit-Vale of Glamorgan (near Penarth) Ogmore by Sea-Vale of Glamorgan (near Porthcawl) Pentre Meyrick-Vale of Glamorgan (near Pencoed) Penylan-Vale of Glamorgan (near Pencoed) Peterston Super Ely-Vale of Glamorgan (near Barry) St Andrew's Major-Vale of Glamorgan (near Barry) St Athan-Vale of Glamorgan (near Barry) St Bride's Major-Vale of Glamorgan (near Bridgend) St Brides Super Ely-Vale of Glamorgan (near Barry) St Donats-Vale of Glamorgan (near Bridgend) St George's Super Ely-Vale of Glamorgan (near Barry) St Hilary-Vale of Glamorgan (near Pencoed) St Lythans-Vale of Glamorgan (near Barry) St Mary Church-Vale of Glamorgan (near Pencoed) St Mary Hill-Vale of Glamorgan (near Pencoed) St Mellons-Vale of Glamorgan (near Caerphilly) St Nicholas-Vale of Glamorgan (near Barry) Tre Aubrey-Vale of Glamorgan (near Barry) Twyn Yr Odyn-Vale of Glamorgan (near Barry) Welsh St Donats-Vale of Glamorgan (near Pencoed) West Aberthaw-Vale of Glamorgan (near Barry)
