Full Description
More
than half of adults either cannot swim or do not possess all the basic swimming
skills. Teaching Adults to Swim provides swiming instructors with lesson
plans, tips, and advice that will help their adult swimming students to overcome
their fear of the water and learn to swim.
Using
his Flash Aquatic Swim Technique, swimming coach Brian "Flash" Fagan provides
detailed instruction for the swimming instructor to use when teaching adults to
swim. With comprehensive lesson plans, instructors are guided on how to teach
the four main swimming strokes: freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke, and butterfly.
This book is the instructor's guide to troubleshooting fear of the water or
correcting poor swimming skills. There are even chapters on workouts to build
stamina and swimming equipment so that the student can easily transition from
beginner to intermediate swimmer.
By
using Brian's teaching method, instructors can quickly put their students at
ease in the water. Their students will be swimming the length of the pool,
treading water, and even jumping into the deep end with confidence.
