Sengkang Swimming Lessons & Instructor

Introduction

Swimming is an amazing activity that can keep you young for as long as you want. But it is important to note that if you are swimming wrong then you might not be able to reap the full benefits of swimming. Interestingly, a lot of people who have relatively better strokes consider themselves to be great swimmers. Whereas in reality learning how to swim properly is extremely important before you can claim that you have mastered the art of swimming. Here are a few of the most common mistakes that even a lot of experienced swimmers make and never find out about. But you shouldn’t worry at all as we are available at Sengkang Swimming Complex to take care of your swimming style.

Common Mistakes in Swimming that You Can Correct

1. Holding the head too high

One of the most common mistakes that a lot of swimmers make while doing the free-style, is holding their heads too high. This is one of the main reasons that beginners are unable to keep their form and swim for longer distances. Our dedicated instructors will guide you through each step of holding your formation while you swim. In fact, body control is the very first step that is taught to our learners.

2. Unable to stop knees from bending

Another major mistake that a lot of newbies make is bending of their knees while they paddle. As a result, one of the very first lessons that are arranged for beginners is to paddle correctly. In case, if you learn to swim wrong as a child, it will become very tough for you to correct your mistakes. This is because the muscles develop a muscle memory which is difficult to edit. But with our experienced and competent trainers, you will be able to correct these mistakes in no time at the Sengkang

3. Swimming flat

Also, a lot of swimmers who even have their strokes worked out tend to swim flat. This naturally impedes you from going the distance and exhausts you up too soon. As a result, we have made the correct swimming movements exercise a part of our initial lessons. Thus, if you are a kid or an adult, we will work you through moving your body in tandem with your strokes.

4. Improper breathing Pattern

Furthermore, syncing your breathing with your strokes and body movement is one of the most important aspects of swimming. But a lot of people are unable to align their breathing with their strokes and end up losing breath too soon. Hence, at Sengkang Swimming Complex, we have focused on these weak areas and designed our lessons to train you for total synchronization. Thus, you will learn to breathe properly while swimming and will go the distance that you could only dream of.

5. Unable to Control your stroke speed

Moreover, we have observed that a lot of swimmers are unable to control their stroke speed. As a result, they either run out of energy too soon or are unable to maintain their form while swimming. Hence, our professional instructors have designed special exercises to help you overcome your stroke speed.

Thus, after swimming lessons at Sengkang Swimming Complex, you will be able to overcome each and every mistake in your swimming. In addition, our instructors will work hard with you enabling you in overcoming any mistakes in your swimming style. Hence, you can see how the Sengkang Swimming Complex accommodates learners of all ages and backgrounds.

  • Beginners Level

At the beginners level, we place the newly inducted kids. During this level, the kids develop their confidence in the water. Since it is extremely important for kids to develop confidence in water at an early stage, we spend substantial time on this stage of learning. Once we feel that the child has developed a substantial amount of confidence move on to the next level of training.

  • Intermediate Level

During this level, the kids are taught about the synchronization of breathing, basics of strokes and the bodily movements involved in swimming. Thus, this is also a core part of the training that enables the children to become good swimmers later in life. Further, we keep a close eye on each individual’s progress and manage their levels accordingly. If we discover that a child is doing good, we move him/her up at the training level.

  • Advanced Level

This is the final level of training for kids. During this level, the trainees work to improve their stroke styles, speed and the ultimate synchronization between the different bodily movements. Once the child has completed the advanced level of training, we mark their training as complete.
