What are the Basic Skills of Swimming?
As a beginner, it is important to learn a few basic swimming techniques.
Learning these basic techniques will allow you to feel confident and comfortable in the water.
If you then tackle learning the common swimming strokes, you will be more relaxed in the process and the task will seem easier.
Then we use practical exercises such as blowing bubbles, bobbing up and down, mushroom float, and many more, to reduce your anxiety and make you more comfortable around large bodies of water.
As a beginner you should learn to do this technique in a prone and in a supine position. You’ll be then able to use the flutter kick to tread water and to swim dog paddle.
