Swim Lessons
for Breckenridge Residents!

Me, the Instructor!

Hi! My name is David Selva. Using my experience as a swim instructor, club and varsity swimmer, I can offer classes that thoroughly establish the fundamentals of swimming for residents aged 4 and up. Here is my resume.

The Lessons!

The classes can cover a range of swim skills, including:

• basic water safety and comfort
• learning to float on one’s front and back
• learning kicking for all 4 strokes (freestyle, backstroke, butterfly and breaststroke)
• learning arm strokes for all 4 strokes

Requests to cover a specific stroke or an aspect of a specific stroke (such as “focusing on kicking for freestyle”) for a session can be made. Efficient teaching by use of engaging cues, demonstration, and feedback during practice will help prevent the buildup of technique errors that can frequently occur in rushed curriculums that make learning new steps harder.

Conditions:

I have a no dunk policy, meaning that if a swimmer is unwilling to do a skill I cannot force them to perform it. Parental presence needed for the duration of the lesson.

As a non-resident of Breckenridge, I ask to be invited as a guest to the pool in order to provide swim instruction.

Costs (for a 30 minute session):

• $25 per swimmer for shared lessons (2 similar level swimmers in the same session)
• $35 for individual lessons

Scheduling:

I am available to provide lessons at the Breckenridge Community Pool every day for the summer from 8 am - 12 pm. My earliest session can be June 13th!
