We know that making the decision to book swimming lessons is very difficult for some. For that reason we always make sure you have ample opportunity to talk with us first. We are so confident that even the most fearful will enjoy Learning to Swim With Us with us that we promise that if you find you don't want to continue after your first private swimming lesson, then all it will cost you is your time and travelling. We know that first step towards booking swimming lessons is all important. For that reason we always make sure you have ample opportunity to talk with us first. Please note that this website is Gay's at Swim With Us. Irene and Steve each have their own websites and we work as individuals. I will be quite happy to help you find the right place for your lessons. Irene has a lovely private pool for your individual use. Steve teaches in public pools and can also offer private swimming lessons. He was also trained as a Total Immersion Coach. Whoever you choose for your residential swimming lessons, you can be assured of a first class service for your one-to-one lessons, with your instructor in the water with you.
... Movement in the WaterChildren should be encouraged to move freely at the earliest opportunity. Some may require the support of artificial aids or the assistance of a helper in the water. The availability of this type of support should be removed as soon as safety and confidence permit. Practices • walk holding the rail/side • walk alongside the rail/side without touching Teaching Points • slide feet along the bottom • move slowly • aim for shoulders below the surface Developments • walk anywhere around the pool • walk changing speed • walk changing direction including sideways and backwards • walk in geometrical shapes/patterns • jumping, hopping, skipping As the pupils gain in confidence they should be allowed to experiment with a variety of movement patterns and games. Swimming Lessons PowysTeaching Treading WaterPractice • in shoulder depth water, a float under each arm, try out different leg actions. Teaching Point • put as little pressure as possible on the floats. Practice • with one float held with both hands, practise chosen leg actions Teaching Points • continuous movement of the legs • tip head slightly back if needed Practice • in water where the swimmers are out of their depth, hold the rail (side) at arms length, hold a float in the other hand, and practise chosen leg actions Teaching Point • gentle, unhurried leg action Practice • at the side, hold the rail as before but scull with the other arm. Practise chosen leg action Teaching Point • scull well below the surface Before going on to treading water entirely independently, it is useful to practise floating skills. This underlines the fact that little effort and energy need be used in order to stay afloat when treading water. Swimming Lessons PowysFloatingProne 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 PowysAber Clydach-Powys (near Brynmawr) Abercraf-Powys
