- **Event Description**: Adults Learn to Swim Front Crawl. A 13 session course taught in a small group with an experienced instructor.About this EventFront Crawl Beginners 13 Session CourseTuesdays 7:00pm to 8:00pm (21st April to 21st July)PLEASE NOTE THERE IS NO SESSION ON 26th MayPortishead Open Air PoolFor ADULT swimmers who wish to start learning front crawl.I s this the right course for you?You are generally HAPPY AND CONFIDENT IN THE WATER, even when out of your depth. You can breaststroke your way up and down a pool, but front crawl eludes you. Either you can’t do it at all, or you can do a few strokes, but don’t get far before you have to stop and are gasping for air.You would like to be able to swim a couple of lengths of front crawl with your face in the water and master breathing as part of the stroke, without panic setting in. Then be able to turn around and do it again after a short rest or get a few lengths in broken up with breaststroke and front crawl to increase your distance and fitness.(If you can already do a few lengths of front crawl reasonably comfortably, but need to rest regularly and would like to improve your efficiency and technique, then please check out the "Front Crawl Improvers Courses")What happens in the sessions?You will be in a lane with six other swimmers under the instruction of either Caroline Blunt or Charlie Stockford. You will work on the basic steps to achieve correct body position, breathing technique and sequence of movement needed to swim Front Crawl. Your instructor will guide you from where you are now, taking you through drills and exercises to practice (and hopefully work on in your own time too).Who are your Instructors?Caroline Blunt is the owner of Waves Swim School, and has been teaching swimmers of all ages, including adults, for many years. She is a regular herself at the Open Air Pool and enjoys the open water too. Her Beginner sessions are designed as part of the progression route towards the training sessions run by Alec Richardson on the same evenings. Caroline and Alec have previously run successful courses together which have taken beginner swimmers from learning Front Crawl in the pool to outdoor training sessions in Clevedon Marine Lake.Charlie Stockford is an experienced swim coach, specialising in working with adults to build their confidence in the water. She is a regular open water swimmer and has run sea swimming groups both locally and on the south coast, as well as working with the adult section of Keynsham swimming club. Her Beginner sessions are designed as part of the progression route towards the training sessions run by Alec Richardson on the same evenings. Charlie and Alec have previously run successful courses together which have taken beginner swimmers from learning Front Crawl in the pool to outdoor training sessions in Clevedon Marine Lake and adventure swims to spectacular locations such as Lulworth Cove and Old Harry Rocks in Studland Bay.By purchasing a ticket for these sessions, you agree to the following:HEALTH and SWIM-FITNESS DECLARATIONBy purchasing a ticket for this course you are confirming that you are physically fit and healthy enough to take part in the swimming sessions as described. In particular, respiratory, heart or circulatory conditions can be an issue. If you have any restrictions to your movement it is helpful for your coach to know this. If you have any concerns or underlying medical conditions then please contact the organiser to discuss them or speak to your coach BEFORE entering the water.• On entry to the pool please register with your coach• Correct swimming lane choice, and safe operation within the lane during the session will all be dealt with at the start of each session once you are in the water. You must follow the instructions of your coach with regard to direction of swim, stroke etc. to avoid potentially dangerous situations. Failure to do so will result in you being instructed to leave the pool.• The lifeguards and pool management have overall authority for the safe operation of the facility, so please abide by any instructions from them whilst at the pool.• Should a session need to be cancelled at short notice (e.g. the wind being too strong to safely remove the pool cover) you will be informed as soon as practically possible via email using Eventbrite’s email system.
