Begynder is the second level in the Svømmeskolen (Swimming School) series, aimed at children aged 5 to 7. Over the course of the session, young swimmers build four core skills: changing position in the water, breathing, balance and movement.
By the end, children should be able to cover a short distance without equipment and with controlled breathing, balance without aids, and find their way in and under the water. They also practise a range of entries, exits and changes of element in the shallow pool section.
