We are providing a strong development program:
- Participants of the swimming program are grouped into different levels depending on their age, swimming skills, body build, and athletic fitness. According to pedagogical and age psychology studies, there are three age groups in childhood: 5 to 7 years of age, 7 to 10, and 11 to 14. Age group is one of the major determinant factors in the development of a child, which is characterized by the physical individuality, athletic fitness, motor skills, psychological peculiarities and individuality.
- Learning of the swimming techniques and practice are the two integral parts of the swimming practice. The both, learning and practice, are aimed at teaching the participants to different swimming techniques, bringing these techniques to professional levels, increasing physical capabilities of the swimmers. Introductory swimming practice is the first stage of the process of training and upbringing of the athletes. At this stage, learning to swim and introduction to the swimming styles along with the development of physical endurance, body coordination, flexibility, and speed are the main goal of swimming practice. Our swimming practice is based on the main principles of the physical education process: teaching, comprehensive development, recreational focus, systematic principle.
