Livingston & District Dolphins

Beginners are not actually required to join as club members, but they have a strong link with the club. In beginners your child will cover the basics of learning to swim with the empahsis being on enjoyment. Sessions are in two half-hour blocks, both exactly at the same time. We operate with teachers in the water with the non-swimmers in small groups, and with more teachers on the poolside. We believe in keeping the teacher pupil ratio small as it creates a better learning environment. But please bear in mind that swimmers progress at different rates and at this early stage it is important not be compare your child with any other. Coaches are Jamie Hood & Andy Weir.

The aims of the beginners classes are:

To introduce the child to the pool and pool safety

To introduce basics of water confidence and build upon this

To teach the child the basics of submersion, floatation and propulsion

To introduce basics of 3 strokes as well as dolphin kick and build upon these

To progress child towards next level of swimming at child's own pace
