Swimming blog post

This week during Swimming lessons we having being practising a bit of skills that would help us with our Strokes. Every Thursdays we come down to the Panmure lagoon to get taught, some strokes that would help is when we are in trouble in water. Every class in Panmure Bridge School is doing swimming lessons. Our instructor is called James. He is going to be teaching my group for the next 7 or 8 sessions. The main things that we did this week was Breath stroke kick, streamline,  doing a bit of backstroke and we were also doing some other things that kind of helped us with our technique. Before we finshied our swimming lessons with James he has made a goal for us to do 1 x 100 which means 3 laps. Some of us can do 1 x 100 including myself. For a couple of lessons we are going through the basics and then we are going to start some laps.

Swimming blog post | Lesson 2




This week during swimming we have being learning breath stroke (kicks), dolphin kicks, butterfly, back stroke (a bit). We were in the same swimming group that we were put into last week but the people that weren't here were able to choose a group. What I found a bit challenging  today was breathing under water while doing the dolphin kick all the way till the end. What we did during this lesson was trying to float in the water looking down and looking out of the water while doing 6 kicks each.

Swimming blog post | Term 3 Week 1 | First session




This week on Thursday was the beginning of our first swimming session. We are going to be having 9 sessions of swimming on Thursday's every week. In the beginning of the lesson we were split into 2 groups. I was in the first group. My group was learning backstroke (a bit), streamline (kick) and practicing other strokes. My favorite stroke learning was Butterfly, I was the only one in my group that  knew how to do it. I found this swimming class a bit easy since I know how to do all 4 strokes.
