🌊 Body Position Basics – 3 Ways to Get Comfortable in the Water 🌊

Feeling awkward in the pool? You’re not alone. One of the biggest challenges for adults learning to swim is figuring out how to sit or lie in the water without panicking. Here are three simple ways to practise body position:

1️⃣ Starfish Float – Stretch arms and legs wide like a starfish and let the water hold you. It teaches you that the water wants to support you.

2️⃣ Superman Glide – Push gently from the wall, arms stretched out in front, face in the water. Think of flying through the pool slowly and calmly.

3️⃣ Log Roll – Float on your back, then gently roll to your front (and back again). This helps you feel how your body naturally shifts and balances in the water.

💡 These aren’t about swimming fast — they’re about learning to trust the water and feel in control of your body.

✨ At Rise & Co, we break swimming down into these simple steps, so adults can build confidence one movement at a time.
