Can You Demonstrate the 5 Basic Swimming Skills?
Did you know that according to a survey done by Red Cross, they found that “…more than half of all Americans (54 percent) either can’t swim or don’t have all of the basic swimming skills.”? We are here to change that and to help everyone, regardless of age or ability, become a safe and happy swimmer! So you may be asking yourself, “What are these 5 skills?”. I am glad you asked! Listed below are the 5 skills that are important for every swimmer to be able to do:
- Floating or Treading Water for One minute without a Floatation Device
- Jumping into deep water and coming up for air.
- Spinning around in the water and then finding a way out of the pool
- Getting out of a pool without a ladder
- Swimming one pool length without stopping
Knowing how to do these five skills will not make you “drown-proof”, but they will ensure that you will be safer in any body of water.
Swimming is a Wonderful Low Impact Exercise!
Another great benefit of learning to swim is that it is one of the greatest ways to get a full body workout without putting any stress on your joints! As we age, a lot of the things we used to love to do, are not as fun because of joint pain. When you swim, there is no impact on your joints, and yet your muscles and lungs get a great workout. It does not matter how old you are, it is never too late to learn such a vital life-skill that can also keep you in great shape!
