Breathing during swimming is one of the most important skills that provides a solid foundation to a swimmer. Breathing is an inhaling and exhaling process, or an exchange of air in the lungs. Beginners are taught inhaling from the mouth and exhaling from the mouth. This is easy to impart to kids who are young or adults who are new to swimming. Ideally, breathing during swimming is to inhale from the mouth and exhale from the nose or both nose and mouth. The exhalation from the nose prevents water from flowing into the nasal cavity, which may cause discomfort in […]

When can your child be in water? Your child can be in the water as soon as he or she is born, as they would have been “swimming” in their mothers’ wombs for the past 9 months! Why swim schools only allow infants to begin swimming lessons at 4 or 6 months? Firstly, businesses do not wish to take unnecessary risks. Infants may not exhibit any health issues outwardly initially. By 6 months, most children would have completed most of the required vaccinations. Infants are also more developed by this point in time, being able to sit up and even […]

Swimming starts as early as 6 months! Sunday afternoons are a good time to have a dip in the water! We had our baby swimming lesson with K and L, and the babies had lots of fun splashing around. For each baby swim class, activities are planned on three main focal points –  learning safe water entry and exit, having water familiarisation and building water confidence. Coach Yong incorporates songs alongside with certain motions so that the babies would associate the songs with each movement. Each skill is then practised over a few times throughout the lesson. Repetition of skills […]

Learning swimming together is a family affair! It’s been a while since we wrote a post on our swimming lessons! On Sunday morning, MoovSwim had a children swimming lesson with the R siblings. Brother R is 4 years old, while sister R is 3 this year. Both of them have been attending swim class with their parents since last year, and they have overcome their fear of putting their faces in the water. They enjoy kicking and practise their paddling with the help of dumbbells! During the lesson, they learn how to control their breath while practising their kicking and […]

A commitment to swimming is a commitment to safe water play! It has been about 6 months since K and E started their weekly children swimming lessons with MoovSwim. We previously wrote about them a few months back (and the first time here). Their progress have been tremendous; both children have grown from being apprehensive to more water confident! They are now able to swim independently for a short distance across the breadth of the pool. K has just turned 6 years old, while E has turned 5 years old recently. For beginner swimmers, they have certainly achieved much! The […]

Swimming is fun with constant practice! The school holidays are here! It is a great opportunity for children to go for more frequent swimming lessons to enjoy water fun in a safe manner! MoovSwim conducted a children swimming lesson on Friday morning for V and D. Since the last time we wrote about them, progress has been made! The children have been honing their freestyle and breaststroke. They are refining their coordination of breath control, as well as arm and leg movement. They are keen to learn and are willing to try, which allows progress to take place more readily! The […]

Progress happens with consistent swimming practice! MoovSwim had a children swimming lesson last Monday afternoon with sisters N and YH at Haig162. We last wrote about the sisters about 5 months ago, and there has been much progress! For almost a year, the sisters had progressed from not wanting to put their faces in the water to learning all four strokes! The sisters are now able to swim without any aid, which is a great improvement from where they had first started out back in January! They have learnt all four swimming strokes – the freestyle, breast stroke, butterfly and backstroke, and are […]

Attending swimming lessons consistently allows progress to take place! K and E have their weekly children swimming lesson with MoovSwim every Sunday afternoon, and it is wonderful to observe how much they have grown and improved over the past few months! The last time we wrote about them, they were still learning to gain more confidence and being more comfortable with placing their faces in the water. Now, the children have grown in both their water confidence and swimming ability, especially E who was initially resistant towards learning. The children have been working on their paddling and kicking, and they are able […]

Swimming is fun when brothers swim together! On Sunday afternoon, MoovSwim conducted a children swimming lesson for twin brothers A and D! These two four year olds are not afraid of the water and couldn’t wait for their lesson to begin! The boys have been with MoovSwim for over a month, and they have improved in their kicking and breath control. The twins have been learning to paddle with the help of dumbbells and noodles, and they are confident in doing torpedoes. Learning to do the torpedo is an important step to learning swim strokes, as children need to be […]
