Swimming Teacher Coach

Swimming training are specific movements, done repetitively

, to get your technique "in the groove." They are generally included in all workouts. Most coaches feel that you can never do enough technique work. You should include some in your workouts, too.

Most swimmers have learned some form of freestyle. Not many can appear to move down the pool as effortlessly as a world record holder, but there are ways to move yourself closer to their form; refine your technique with drills.

This list of drills is far from complete. If you are an experienced swimmer, you may know these drills by different names, perform them somewhat differently, or know many more. Important key to freestyle: you spend most of your time on your edge or side, not on your stomach area. Imitate a sharp knife, on the edge of the blade, not a big soup spoon. Good freestyle, both swimming and drilling, requires you to rotate or roll your body along your "long-axis" or spine.

You should also try to take breaths on alternate sides to help promote this good body roll. In these descriptions, if an arm is called the "front arm" it refers to the arm pointing to where you are headed. That side or edge of your body (shoulder to hip) is generally oriented toward the bottom of the pool, like the keel of a boat. The opposite edge (shoulder to hip) is aimed more "up" toward the ceiling (or the sky if you are lucky enough to swim outdoors) like a shark fin.

Free style is probably the most common stroke swam. It's the basic stoke they taught us in swimming lessons when we were 5-years old. It's also known as the "crawl," "front crawl," etc. Assuming that most people already know how to swim the freestyle, it would be a waste for me to just sit here blabbering on about how you swim it. So I thought I would just give you tips, drills and technique information so you'll be able to swim it better.

Before you can fully work alone without the need of any supervision, you will have to complete at least one of the following: ASA Certificate for Teaching (Aqua fit) at Level 2, ASA/UKCC Certificate for Teaching Aquatics at Level 2, and ASA/UKCC Certificate for Coaching Swimming at Level 2. As an alternative, you can enter this job through STA teaching qualifications. As there are several swimming coaching course available in the UK, asa swimming teacher courses have been very reliable over the past few years.
