• Front crawl means rotating your arms forward while kicking steadily and turning your head to breathe.
• The backstroke technique requires floating supine while alternating arm pulls and leg kicks.
• Breaststroke means pulling both arms together while executing frog kicks and breathing forward.
• Butterfly is the most challenging stroke, requiring simultaneous arm movements and dolphin kicks.

Freestyle is typically the first stroke taught since it develops essential breathing and coordination skills.

Each stroke teaches different coordination patterns and strengthens various muscle groups.
