Apprenez à Nager
We assume children already have basic water experience and familiarity.
Quel style de nage est appris en premier ?
Swimming on the back is the first style taught in virtually all swimming programs. Backstroke is more intuitive for many children, and it allows them to breathe freely, eliminating one of the most challenging aspects of the breaststroke and freestyle techniques.
Mon enfant a toujours froid – que puis-je faire ?
Most indoor pools are between 26 and 28 degrees Celsius, while water in outdoor pools, lakes, or the sea can be significantly colder. This can be challenging for many children, especially when it's windy. A simple solution is to use special wetsuits for children. You can find some examples in our article.
Mon enfant n’a aucune expérience préalable avec l’eau.
In most countries, swimming lessons typically begin at age 4. If your child is 5, 6, or 7 and is only now starting swimming lessons, that's no problem. In fact, it's often beneficial to start a bit later. However, before attempting exercises for 5- to 7-year-olds, your child should first master the exercises designed for 4-year-olds.
