The invention relates to a novel slipper system designed to provide a ground-contact sensation underwater by simulating different ground surfaces such as sand, stones, or gravel so as to facilitate swim training, wherein a haptic motor array together with depth- and motion-detecting sensors is integrated into the sole; wherein a microcontroller, a power unit, and interchangeable silicone texture modules are provided within a waterproof enclosure thereof; and wherein the slipper system is capable of detecting water depth through a pressure sensor and user movements through an IMU sensor, thereby delivering real-time haptic feedback based on processed data.

The training method is characterized by including the steps of: causing the lateral abdominal muscles, such as the transverse abdominal muscle, to contract by the trainer himself or herself to make the abdominal circumference concave; causing a long training tool (6) made of an elastic foam having buoyancy, stretchability, and softness to cover the upper pelvis to the lower side of the 10th rib from the abdominal circumference of the trainer himself or herself made concave while being stretched and tightened; and performing training while maintaining the concave state of the abdominal circumference using the contraction force of the training tool (6).
