Service Description

At this level, your child will be building the Breast Stroke as well as the Elementary Backstroke. The Breast Stroke will require a little more coordination. For this reason, we will start with the Frog leg kicks and breathing technique with the kickboard, which differs from the tilt-head breathing we accomplished in the Goldfish level. Once we have the frog legs coordinated, we will add the arms to it, before bringing the practiced breathing technique into play for the completion of the stroke. With the Elementary Backstroke, our legs and arms are making the same motion as one another simultaneously, and due to being on our back, there is no breathing technique to contend with, making this stroke an easier one to accomplish. Don’t underestimate this stroke however, as it will aid your child when stressed in the water.
