Typical 30-Minute Lesson Breakdown  • Warm-up (3–5 minutes): Pool entry, shallow-water walking, shoulder submersion, and gentle movement to get comfortable and warm up the muscles. • Main Skill / Focus (15–20 minutes): Dedicated practice on the primary objective for the day (e.g., breath control, floating, or a specific stroke mechanic). • Contrasting or Drill Activity (5–7 minutes): A supportive drill, buoyancy aid (like a woggle/kickboard), or alternate movement to reinforce the main skill. • Review & Safe Exit (2–3 minutes): Practicing standing recoveries (how to stand up safely from the water) and a quick recap with the instructor.  What Content is Covered (Based on Skill Level)   For Absolute Beginners (Water Adaptation & Comfort)  • Water comfort: Standing in shallow water, submerging the face, and blowing bubbles to control exhalation. • Standing recovery: Learning how to pull your knees to your chest and plant your feet so you can stand up at any time (the #1 way to reduce fear). • Buoyancy & Floating: Front and back star floats, mushroom floats, and push-and-glides off the wall. • Basic kicking: Holding the wall or using a kickboard to practice a relaxed, surface-level kick.  For Intermediate / Stroke Refinement  • Freestyle (Crawl stroke): Body roll, head position, and rhythmic side breathing. • Backstroke: Maintaining a horizontal body position, arm recovery, and tracking a straight line on the ceiling. • Endurance & Pace: Putting lengths together with controlled rest intervals.
