SIP 082: Teaching Private lessons during Covid-19

2020/06/29

How should you protect yourself and others when you're teaching swimming lessons to individuals or duos? Today we're listening to a user submitted question and answering it after a brief unrecorded phone call. Rowenna and I spoke on the phone and we reviewed much of the same things. Her favorite games are Treasure hunt and diving games with multicolored toys labeled with numbers. I'm a huge fan of Treasure hunt too, and you can see a list of relevant swim games and challenges

SIP 081: Sun Protection for Swim Instructors

2018/07/09

SUN SCREEN! SUN LOTION! SUN BLOCK! This is the most essential product you can buy. I'm talking about sun tan lotion. Sun block. We use this gallon jug. You can use this too. I suggest making it mandatory for all swim instructors to wear the lotion before they start their first lesson. When they're done teaching each class, they should get out of the pool, talk to parents, dry off, and lube up with sun tan lotion again. This is the number one best thing you can do (aside from not going outside) to

Swimming Ideas Podast ·

2018/06/11

No. Most parents don't care what your swim program system is. They care about three things: 1) Will their child learn how to swim? 2) Does it fit into their schedule? 3) Is it within their budget? They're more worried about making the most out of their time and effort to bring their kid to swim lessons. They want progress, they want success, but they don't really care how you order your level structure. It isn't important to them. That isn't to say you shouldn't have a structure or a plan, but

2018/04/23

Lots of talk about breath; on land, in the water, in small groups, and over short distances. Most effective initially with short distances, and constant discussion about it. Some level of attenuation. Lean what we do in dryland, and in our small groups to progressively move through breathing on land to maintaining the breath in the water. Struggle how to keep it relevant and enforce it: how to make it habit? How to tell if doing it? Enforcement. Variations on

He asked me very generally what he could do to get started. He had bought the swimming ideas lesson plans which you can get here: https://swimminglessonsideas.com/store/ But he was uncertain in how to start teaching swimming lessons. It made me think about what the key things someone would need to begin. Like what if you'd never

2018/03/23

Take a look with me at the 3 year old class I've been teaching for the last 6 weeks. Look at the games we play and how I've been successful getting them in the water when half the class was crying and terrified the first few lessons. Yes! It is okay to play games with 3 year olds, and I would even say that you should be playing mostly games and singing songs with your youngest participants. When they're comfortable enough to trust you with going underwater, smiling, and having more fun than the

And how it has been fun and full of healthy improvement. Preface: I run safe and encouraging practices. I get along well with my swimmers and their parents. I can't think of a time I was upset with a parent that knew me or has watched a practice. We fill our time building up our swimmers by giving them regular feedback. They experience more than 10 interactions per practice of one of the coaches saying something they did well, and something they need to improve upon. We take particular effort
