    5 BASIC SWIMMING SKILLS
    1. Breathing
    2. Floating
    3. Body movement coordination
    4. Kicking
    5. Strokes
    5 BASIC SWIMMING SKILLS
    1. Breathing - This is a frequently overlooked basic skill, but it is
    an important one. If are not comfortable breathing while
    swimming, you won't be able to enjoy it completely and learn
    new things. The basic idea is that you need to breathe out with
    both your nose and mouth when your head is underwater. Then
    when you lift your head to the side take a full breath before
    putting your face back down.
    5 BASIC SWIMMING SKILLS
    2. Floating - Before you start kicking and stroking, first learn to
    float in the water. Floating helps you to get used to the habit of
    moving through water properly. Floating helps to keep your
    body on the surface of the water. Our body experiences a vertical
    buoyant force when immersed in water and floating helps to
    keep your body in a horizontal position. Floating is important
    because if you accidentally fall in the water you will be able to
    float on the surface till you are rescued.
    5 BASIC SWIMMING SKILLS
    3. Your body movement should be well coordinated
    In swimming - all your body parts should be well coordinated
    with each other. You must be able to move the muscles of your
    lower back, abdomen, and hips in a synchronized way to keep
    moving forward. Your hands should move and cut through the
    water first, followed by your elbow and then your body should
    make way through the water.
    5 BASIC SWIMMING SKILLS
    4. Kicking - Kicking is another important skill to learn if
    you want to master swimming. Kicking helps your body to
    move in the forward direction. Many swimming coaches
    use kickboards to support swimmer's body.
    5 BASIC SWIMMING SKILLS
    5. Strokes - Now that you know how to float and kick, it
    is time to learn some strokes. Strokes are the arm
    movements that help to pull the body through the water.
    The front crawl, sidestroke, backstroke, and butterfly are
    some of the common swimming strokes.
    8 DIFFERENT SWIMMING STYLES AND
    STROKES:
    1. Freestyle/Front Crawl
    2. Backstroke
    3. Breaststroke
    4. Butterfly
    5. Sidestroke
    6. Elementary Backstroke
    7. Combat Side Stroke
