This course is for those who can swim a bit of front crawl, but who would like to improve their technique. There will be 5 practical pool sessions and an online course with video demonstrations and things to practise in between.
We will fully break down the elements of the front crawl stroke and use drills to help you to refine your technique. We will work with the way YOU move, rather than teaching everyone a one size fits all stroke, and give everyone individual feedback on which aspect(s) of their stroke to focus their efforts on.
Aimed at those that can comfortably swim at least two lengths of front crawl continuously.
Please note the first session starts 15 minutes earlier, meeting in the reception area of the leisure centre. Subsequent sessions start on poolside.
