I SWIM

Swimming is the motor activity that allows the buoyancy and movement of one's body in water. Swimming involves almost every muscle in the body. In addition to being an Olympic sport it is a recreational activity. The history of swimming has its origins since ancient times, over 7000 years ago, as evidenced by the discovery of rock paintings representing men in the act of swimming dating back to the Stone Age.] Water sport with a history spanning over a thousand years, is included in the Olympic program since the Games of the First Olympiad. Swimming can be practiced at a competitive level, involving many sacrifices for those who practice it at this level.

Considered a complete and healthy sport, which distributes movement evenly throughout the body, it promotes health, longevity and physical and psychological well-being. It often brings aesthetic and physical benefits: usually there is an increase in lean mass and a reduction in fat mass, the development of the bone structure and the expansion of the rib cage, the improvement of motor and respiratory coordination and the reduction of spasticity.




Course description

We organize a natural acclimatization and basic propulsion course for the student's autonomy in the water:

- acclimatization in water

- diving and breathing

- buoyancy


Scope
Swimming, and related water sports, are practiced for many purposes. Often these purposes overlap and an amateur swimmer, for example, may also swim for health and physical well-being reasons. Swimming was also indicated for scoliosis but recent studies deny this statement, in particular they advise against breaststroke and dolphin strokes (which induce the back to curve) at a competitive level
