Progressing from Tang Fish to Angelfish 🐠

I am often asked when will a swimmer move up from Tang Fish to Angelfish and my response is always "when their kick is strong and consistent"

And I found the perfect explanation for this from "World Wide Swim School which is the leading online swimming training resource for teachers, coaches, swim schools and parents, developed by Olympic Gold Medal and World Champion Swim coach and former Australian Rugby Union Representative, Laurie Lawrence"

🤩 First and foremost, swimmers should only be introduced to side breathing when their kicks are strong enough to hold them in a good streamline body position. If kicks are weak in the early stages of breathing development, poor body position will create resistance and make it harder for swimmers to keep moving efficiently through the water as they turn to breathe 🤩

Have you ever thought about why I conduct certain lessons over a shorter distance?

I truly believe in teaching the most accurate technique for swimming strokes at a shorter distance to refine these skills. "Short distance" lessons are used until a young swimmer can execute each drill with efficient technique (and to the best of their ability) along with a powerful kicking action 🐳

Swimming longer distances before mastering this can lead to poor swimming habits, making the learning process less effective and safe 🐳

Additionally, "short distance" lessons allow instructors to better correct swimmers' techniques 🐳
