FACE-UP FIRST®
Method: Achieving aquatic balance is the key to
both safety and fast swimming. FACE-UP FIRST®
coaches focus on helping infants, toddlers, children, and
adults achieve relaxed, balanced, face-up comfort in the
water. Once this is achieved we move on to more
advanced competitive swimming stroke techniques. This is the easiest and
most efficient way to learn and way to swim. Swimmers
learn first to attain a relaxed, balanced floating position
and then add propulsive movement. We teach that arm,
hand, and leg movements are used to propel the body through
the water, not to keep the body at the surface.
"Be still and float first." Learn more
about the FUF Method & our S.W.I.M. Model.
Ideal Swimmer
to Coach Ratios:
-
1:1 for swimmers under three years of age
(Infant & Toddler Program)
-
3:1 for swimmers three and older
(Child & Adult Program)
-
6:1 for the Competitive Program
(Competitive Program)
Convenient
No-Level Scheduling: We have three programs:
Infants & Toddlers, Children & Adults, and the Competitive
Program.
Within those programs, there are no levels such as you might
find with other programs.
We’ve found that by maintaining the ideal coach to
swimmer ratios for each program we are able to offer
individualized instruction without grouping students by
ability level or age.
This is convenient and economical for both
the Swim School and for our patrons.
Patrons need only
choose a time slot.
They are free to register siblings,
carpool members, and friends together.
They are not required to adjust their
schedule to accommodate a “level class” that
is offered at certain times during the week. Time
slots are open to everyone allowing all the
classes to fill.
