Swimming is one of the most important things for anyone to learn because no one will ever know when he will have to survive in water. Basically, west chester swimming lessons are broken into three levels namely in the beginner level, the advanced level, and the competitive level. Just to know what they are all about, here are some bits of information.

When one starts out in the first level, the first thing that he would learn is floating. In order to float, he will have to learn the fundamentals of breathing so that he can fill his lungs up with air. By knowing the proper way of breathing on water, he will definitely be able to float.

Upon learning how to float, one will now have to learn certain movements so that he will be able to move when in the pool. The most basic move that he would learn is the kick wherein he will kick the water starting with his right foot then his left and just continue. After perfecting this kick, he would add some arm movements as well to create the freestyle stroke.

Once he has already mastered the basics, then he can learn some other new moves like the dog crawl and the frog kick. Now while doing these moves, one must put his head above the water. This will allow him to continue breathing even though he is moving his body.

Upon finishing the beginner level, one can now move on to the second level which is the advanced level. Now the very first lesson that one will be learning in this level would of course be the backstroke because it is actually the easiest. In order to do this, one will just be doing a freestyle stroke while lying on his back. This move is actually very relaxing and will actually help one relax if he is tired.

Of course after he has already learned that, then he would then be learning the breast stroke. Now this breast stroke is rather an easy stroke wherein he would be using some hand movements while a little bit of upper body movements that will allow him to bring his head up. While he does this, he should be doing frog kicks.

The last move that he would be learning is the butterfly stroke. This is arguably the hardest move to do because it requires strong upper body movement as he will be pushing his body up and spreading his arms. At the same time, he will be doing a dolphin kick which is a kick where both his feet will hit the pool at the same time.

Once he has learned all of those moves, he is now ready to go to the competitive level. Now he will not be learning any new moves while in this level but he will be refining what he already knows and he would also be improving his stamina by swimming laps back and forth in the pool. When he has finished this level, then he would definitely not need to be afraid of trying to survive in the water anymore.
