This charming, fun, learn to swim visual was created and produced by Arlene Williams for use by parents, teachers, therapists, young children, adolescents and adults.
The skills demonstrated for learning/teaching swimming may be used by all persons regardless of ability/inability/disability.
The purpose of this learn to swim visual is for use in the bath at home, a paddling/tidal or swimming pool, whatever water facility is available to you. Simple basic and progressive step-by-step instructions show surface and underwater visuals.
Adapt the skills to the age, ability, inability, disability of the learner and the water facility being used. Success comes with constant patience and consistent repetition.

Early learning to swim influences Water Safety Awareness, development and life skills.
