Why do we teach ‘Short Distance Lessons’ in Nippa’s 1 and Nippa’s 2?
A. We believe in teaching the correct technique with swimming strokes, over a shorter distance, to perfect these techniques. We continue ‘Short Distance Lessons’ until a young swimmer can perform each drill, with efficient technique and a strong kicking action. Swimming longer distances prior to this only creates ‘sloppy’ swimming. ‘Short Distance Lessons’ are also more effective for our instructors to correct children’s technique.
