About FAS
If you believe in swimming harder for swimming better, we would say that you have come to the wrong place, for in Fishlike Aquatic School (FAS) we believe otherwise. Lead by Tang Siew Kwan, we believe in TI, Total Immersion Swimming. Since our beginning in 1998, and coming under Fishlike Sports Academy Pte Ltd. (FSA) in April 2006, FAS has been a strong advocate to TI swimming concepts and techniques.
In our school, the coaches and athletes are strong believers for swimming efficiently, smoothly, and gracefully; yet with speed and power. In FAS, athletes ranging from triathletes, as the majority, to competitive and even beginner swimmers have reaped the benefits of FAS TI Workshops. Firstly, we coach our athletes in the important foundational skills and techniques of balance and streamlining of the body. These skills are eventually engraved into the muscle memory and habits of our athletes before we begin coaching them in their aerobic fitness, distance endurance, and speed. The end result is a smooth and efficient swimmer, able to swim his record best never done before without TI coaching.
Although this may sound abstract or even absurd to most athletes now, try relating this concept to the age old techniques in Tai-Chi. Simply, TI is conceptually like the art of Tai-Chi that is more advance in the art of swimming. Through the self improved and unique training techniques from our qualified and experience coaches, FAS is able to touch and shape the hearts and swim strokes of multiple athletes. Moreover, we believe that it is not just about swimming right, but to also enjoy the sport in an interactive and enriching manner with a new group of like-minded friends.
