🐒 Turtle Level – Technique Development

Age: Up to 8 years | Prerequisite: Swim 10 metres unaided

Children in the Turtle class are confident in the water and no longer require support. This level introduces proper stroke technique and develops strength, control, and breathing for more efficient swimming.

πŸŠβ€β™€οΈ Skills Covered:

  • Use of a kickboard to improve leg movement and propulsion
  • Introduction to freestyle, backstroke, and breaststroke techniques
  • Body control for movement in all directions
  • Calm and controlled breathing techniques
  • Safe entry, different jumps, and basic dives

The main goal is to establish a foundational technique across three strokes, preparing children for more advanced swimming. They will also learn how their body moves and responds in water across different positions and movements.

➑️ Upon mastering these skills, swimmers are ready to move on to the Octopus Level.

⚠️ Not suitable for children over 8 years old.
