There are as many instructional methods of swimming in Japan as the number of people teaching the skill. Among them, Ministry of Education and Japanese Federation of Swimming each suggest own instructional sequential steps according to the developmental stages of the skill. Certain group of people disagree to such already established systems and insist Dol-hira system, or dolphin-breast combination stroke for acquisition of beginning swimming skills. On the other hand, private swimming clubs propose various systems of instructional methods. Indeed, every system seems to have some strong and weak points.

Upon reviewing various instructional methods that are existent, so-called HUFB system has been logically developed which is being introduced in this study. The system has been successfully applied to the Extension Swimming School at the Hiroshima University Fukuyama Branch for the past ten years. The fundamental contents of the said system, is constituted of getting acquinted to water, jump-butterfly, crawl stroke, back stroke, and breast stroke, in this order. The essential part of its philosophy is optimization of instruction to the given circumstances that varies immencely from time to time.
