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 […]

Why Children Need Consistent Swimming Practice Swimming lessons are usually conducted once a week. However, some children are not able to come for class due to other commitments. This results in limited progress in learning, and sometimes regression. Malcolm Gladwell, author of many best-sellers such as The Tipping Point: How Little Things Can Make A Big Difference, and Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking, mentioned that in order to become an expert in anything, one needs to put in an average of 10,000 hours of practice. That would mean attending weekly swimming lessons is just the bare minimum requirement! Many […]
