Are you looking to try something new and meet other students? Grab your swimsuit, goggles, and swimming hat, and join us as we’re introducing artistic swimming to TCD!
This program is beginner friendly and will overview basic beginner figures, movements and terms. In artistic swimming, goggles are not allowed for competitions and presentations, but you can use them during training sessions. Every swimmer needs to use a nose clip to avoid getting water in their nose when doing figures. We will talk about propulsion techniques, pool patterns, and more.
Here are some of the things you will be able to learn:
- Eggbeater
- Boost
- Ballet leg
- Flamingo
- Sailboat
PS: Avoid leisure swimwear as it may be restricting your movements. Nose clips will be provided.
