Tweens
Does your tween already know how to swim?
Are they thinking about joining a swim team?
Do you just want them to be stronger in water?
If so, we will work on freestyle swimming (more than just "big arms") and side breathing. It's an easy process if done correctly. They will learn backstroke. I will introduce them to breaststroke kicking. Some kids get this very quickly - some it takes just a little bit longer.
If swim team is your goal, all the strokes will be taught. The turns for each stroke will be taught. The competition dive will be taught. Correct push off's from the wall will also be taught for the four strokes (freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke, butterfly).
Swim team competition can be in two forms. There are summer recreational teams and year-round USA swim teams available in the Placerville, Shingle Springs, El Dorado Hills, Folsom and surrounding El Dorado county areas.
No matter what your swim team goal is, the technique is all the same. The more effiicient you are in the water, the faster you'll swim....and the easier it will be.
