Each person is able to swim - this ability is given us by nature. And that who thinks that he is not able to swim, just is afraid of water, at the conscious or subconscious level. And therefore for a start just it is worth overcoming the fear, having understood that our body by the nature is easier than water, and it will emerge anyway on a surface (if not to add to it additional weighting compounds).
How do learn to float beginners?
In pools where small children comprehend science how to learn to float well and correctly, them learn to float first of all. At first to drift on a surface in the provision asterisk, the person up (hands and legs are stretched, the trunk quietly lies on water). If, being in this situation, hands to raise and lower, without taking out them from water, then it is possible already and to float on a back and if to add also the movement by legs, then speed will be more.
One more exercise in which train the beginning swimmers — float. The person is grouped, attracting knees to a chin and clasping them with hands. At first in such situation you fall under water a little, and then you emerge — a back up. In this exercise the breath delay trains. Besides, carrying out float, the person realizes that water always pushes out it on a surface, so nothing threatens it.
Exercise float - a key to how it is possible quickly to learn to float. Having understood that the body by itself seeks to remain on a water surface, the beginning swimmers learn to be ungrouped in water and to carry out movements by themselves (as though draw a semicircle before themselves) and legs (to stir slightly in water as though in flippers or on - frog to push away from itself water). To lift a cloud of splashes at the same time it is considered a big mistake.
Whether the adult can learn to swim?
Certainly. It is enough only most to be trained in shallow water by the sea or the river or to resemble to the pool where children and adults learn to swim. Perhaps, in the pool it will be more convenient as there are sides from which it is possible to make a start legs.
The instruction how to learn to float the same: to overcome hydrophobia, lie down on water, feel that it holds you on a surface in any pose: asterisks and in the grouped situation. Having mastered a float and an asterisk, it is possible to pass the Log to exercise.
Get up exactly, gather in air lungs. One leg make a start from a side of the pool or from a bottom. At the same time the body has to be strained, and hands straightened forward over the head so that palms slightly touched each other. Legs are also direct. Having made a start, you will slide in water as a log. Try to do this exercise several times. It will begin to turn out, and you by inertia will sail on several meters from a side, it will be possible to begin to connect legs. That is, you made a start, became straight, proskolzit 2-3 meters and begin to do alternate movements by legs: at first the left leg up, slightly bending it in a knee, and right equal - down, then on the contrary. Initially in the pool it is possible to ask a swimming board.
Quite good option also to employ the personal instructor. The professional not only will teach to slide on water, but also will prompt how to learn to float any given style to the adult or the child.
On the question for what is the time it is possible to learn to float well? of the uniform answer does not exist. There were cases when the people getting into extreme situations on water having only reached the coast realized that they were not able to swim before. But in most cases it is enough to person to receive several lessons at the private instructor or most to be trained in shallow water a little to feel confident in own forces and to begin to do independent heats.
