Lounge To Laps - Swimming - Healthy Darwin Healthy Lifestyles Short Course

This 4-week freestyle stroke correction program aims to help you become a more confident swimmer, and improve your technique and endurance.
Each session will start with a gentle warm-up, then a build-up of skills and drills to efficiently and comfortably swim a lap or more of the pool in freestyle, focussing on:
• Head and body positioning
• Feeling the water to propel you forward efficiently
• Correct kick mechanics
• Breathing techniques
• Drills to improve stroke efficiency
Sessions are adjusted to cater for swimmers who are just learning to swim their first laps up to more confident swimmers who want to challenge themselves towards a 2km session by the end of the 4 weeks.
Participants will need their own goggles, a kickboard and fins, and must be able to swim at least 25m of freestyle with breathing, unassisted.
All participants must be 18 years or older and must be able to attend all four sessions.
Numbers are limited, to ensure each participant gets the instruction and feedback needed for improvement.
Cost: $40 - to be paid in advance
Bookings essential!
