Shark:
Once the children reach Shark level, our focus is on helping them to achieve a 5, swim independently either on their fronts or backs. We are also making sure following on from the Seal level that their entries and exits have been mastered. Floatation and rotation in various forms are introduced. The focus on being able to ‘push’ from the side is re-enforced and the ‘push and glide’ exercise is mastered. The added difficulty of not of not using the legs when doing this is an extra challenge. Breaststroke arm features more prominently at this level and should be mastered before moving onto Swim School.
