This way we can guarantee our participants that they learn an efficient swimming technique in a short time. In the course, in addition to teaching the front crawl / freestyle swimming technique, the theory behind this swimming stroke also plays an important role. Thanks to the theoretical units, the learning process is supplemented and the broader knowledge of swimming is deepened. This method, which was developed over many years of experience, includes special exercises through which the elements of front crawl / freestyle swimming are identified and trained in isolation. The swimming course course ends with a video analysis of each individual swimmer and triathlete.
