Class Ratio
8 Children per Instructor per lesson
Support
Children are taught in the deep area of the pool by an Instructor poolside
Prerequisite
Children should be able to swim 20m confidently in all three strokes using an overarm action on front crawl and back crawl.. This level is suitable for those swimmers working towards the STA Angelfish series and those ASA stage 4-5.
Objective
Focus on perfecting stroke technique on all 4 strokes over longer distances, introduction to surface dives and sitting dives, practising water survival skills and building stamina in preparation for promotion to Selkie Swim Squad.
Covid Secure Measures
We have reduced pool capacity to 8 swimmers. This will include 3/4 Improver 2 swimmers based in the deep end of the pool. Each swimmer will be allocated to a pool station with labelled equipment for their use only. Front crawl side breathing will be taught to one side only. To accommodate a mixed ability class – Improver 2 swimmers will be given longer distances and adapted drills to ensure they are challenged. We believe this set up allows us to use the pool safely and we can accomodate siblings who may be different levels.
