DESCRIPTION:
It breaks down the basic skills of swimming, common mistakes & fixes, and outlines each day of lessons. This is an excellent book to teach swimming lessons or for coaches. All four strokes are included and advanced skills and drills are also broken down.
"Nice short guide to freestyle teaching instructions" according to DuWayne Campbell. Interesting and to the point. This book is more of an introduction to freestyle swimming. After reading it I feel more confident in instructing my track and field athletes who use swimming as criss training during the summer. I would have given higher ratings of instructions for teaching the breast stroke (a very important safety stroke for non-competitive swimmers) was included. Overall a good book.
