Helping Young Swimmers Master Body Position Through Snorkel Use (Video)
Need to improve body position in your freestyle swimming? Snorkels are a perfect tool, and FINIS was the first manufacturer to develop those products as training tools. Now, FINIS has introduced the Stability Snorkel Junior, intended for swimmers ages 6-10. The goal of this device, according to FINIS, is to help young swimmers “learn techniques like older swimmers have been learning for years.”
Getting used to practicing in a snorkel can be challenging for young swimmers, so here are six steps FINIS recommends to get swimmers ready for the challenge:
- Get comfortable on pool deck, and adjust the head bracket.
- Practice breathing through the snorkel before entering the water.
- In the shallow end, practice submerging and breathing through the snorkel.
- Transition to a floating position, concentrating only on breathing.
- Flutter kick with the snorkel.
- Add the arms.
