Teaching Swimming 4th edition was published in April 2025 is LIVE! CHECK IT OUT NOW! This book is the 3rd edition and is OUT OF DATE. Updated October of 2019, this is Swimming Ideas' latest training workbook for new and veteran swimming instructors and coaches. In this edition, you'll see an all-new format focusing on pictures and key points. There are discussion items to talk about with peers in a group training session, or one-on-one if reviewing with a manager. We learn through visual references and this book is full of custom-drawn illustrations and pictures directly addressing the most important skills in swimming. Teaching swimming lessons and running a swim team can be difficult. There are so many variables and things to consider. Getting new staff and veteran instructors all on the same page can be a struggle. Run your swim program using this book for every member of your staff to teach a standard range of skills and speak the same words. You might have ten children in the water or five adults. Knowing how to communicate, which skills to work on, and how to follow an effective incremental progression is hard. Swimming Ideas is here to help. I've trained hundreds of new staff on how to teach swimming, and have compiled a long list of skills, terms, and techniques to make swimming instruction more effective in a new teacher's hands. Want to teach your 16-year-old novice how to teach a swim lesson so you aren't cringing and biting your nails as you watch? Give them this book to review the discussion items together, and evaluate their understanding with four included worksheets. Not sure how you describe the nuance and importance of using command language in your classes? Use this training workbook and discuss how to be a better communicator. Did you just hire a swim instructor that has never taught a lesson before and doesn't even know what a front glide is? Maybe they've never heard of streamline. Give them a copy of this training workbook and they'll learn the 15 essential swim skills and how to teach them. From language, scripts, pictures, and guides, this training guide has it all.
