Guignard, Brice; Button, Chris; Davids, Keith; Seifert, Ludovic – European Physical Education Review, 2020
To cope in various aquatic environments (i.e. swimming pools, lakes, rivers, oceans), learners require a wide repertoire of self-regulatory behaviours such as awareness of obstacles and water properties, floating and moving from point to point with different strokes, decision making, emotional control and breathing efficiently. By experiencing…
