This principle says most swim time should feel comfortable, with short bursts of speed work.

• The 80% portion focuses on rhythm, stroke refinement, and steady breathing.
• The 20% portion pushes your heart rate up, building speed and power.
• Too much hard work leads to fatigue; too little slows progress.

The key is tracking total time at each intensity level over weeks.

Remember: consistent low-intensity work builds the foundation; targeted intensity sharpens speed.

In Distington, expect to pay roughly £10/h for private swim tuition.

This price can vary depending on several factors:

• Your current ability: complete beginner, returning swimmer, or stroke refinement
• The tutor's background, ASA certification level, and years of coaching
• The format you choose: one-off sessions, monthly plans, or crash courses
• Where you swim: council pool, hotel pool, or specialist swim school

Packages of five or ten sessions often work out cheaper per lesson.

A first taster session is common, letting you assess the teaching style at no cost.

Between ages 3 and 5, kids gain the motor skills needed to follow instructions and learn strokes.

• These early classes are about splashing, floating, and building confidence.
• At this stage, children learn to kick, blow bubbles, and hold the pool edge.
• By age 5 or 6, many children swim a full width with a recognisable front crawl.

Some children thrive earlier; others need more time before structured lessons click.

The key message: early water exposure builds confidence, and formal instruction works best once coordination develops.
