Halliwick Concept®
Water Happiness
Halliwick Concept is an approach to teach all people to participate in water activities,in particular those with physical and/or learning difficulties, by learning water confidence and to move independently in water and to swim. Using games, songs, etc, and group activities.
It focuses on teaching a swimmer confidence in their own abilities and control of one’s body in water leading towards swimming strokes and movements.
Benefits include physical, personal, recreational, social and therapeutic aspects. The Concept has influenced hydrotherapy techniques and has been developed into specific therapeutic exercises.
