Every body can float! 🛟 If your legs sink in your float, don’t panic, it’s completely normal. You don’t need a perfectly flat float to be successful.

Here is your quick Floating Checklist:

✅Face up?
✅Able to breathe?
✅Resting?

If you checked all three boxes, you are floating successfully! If your legs still need a little help, just add a gentle kick or light arm movements to keep yourself up.

✋I wish every adult beginner was taught how to string together these three things for deep end safety: back float —> treading —> front float.

🤔Knowing how to seamlessly connect all three of these skills is imperative for survival in deep water. Neither a back float nor treading alone can get you to the side of a pool or to shallow water.

✅We must either move to safety while in our back float (as shown in a past posted video) or following the steps in this video.

As always, be safe and happy practicing!💦

Have you ever tried vertical kicking? This is my favorite way to practice the full leg motion of the kick. You really get a sense of how the hips are supposed to move the whole leg. The kick starts at the hip, then the knee bends just enough so that the top of the foot can then kick the water. If you want a more in-depth tutorial on the flutter kick, please check out the first video I made on kicking on my page.

😰Do you know what steps to take if you fall into deep water? Can’t swim? You do not need to know how to swim formal strokes in order to be safe in this situation! 🛟 Treading and back floating, while extremely important skills and necessary for life-saving, cannot take you to the shallow end! ⛓️You need to have a routine of linked skills LIKE THESE in order to truly be safe in the water! In this video, I demonstrate each step I take on my journey towards getting to safety. Stay til the end for a slow motion demonstration of how my air brings me up! No effort required!

🎉 NEW HERE? 🎉Hi! I’m Kelly! All skills except formal swim strokes are needed for this video. I have tutorials for each part that you see in this video on my page. Check the highlight tabs for the specific video topic.

⚠️As always be safe, grab a swim buddy and try this gently in shallow water first!

🌊Wanna know why I never care how deep the water is? Because I’m not swimming on the bottom, I’m swimming on the top! Once you know how to stay at the top you never need to fear the depth again!

😮‍💨🫠Wanna see what happens when I lose most of my air? When I deflate my life jacket (lungs)? Learning to breathe properly gives you the best chance at staying on the surface safely! Always inhale through your mouth and exhale (hum) through your nose to keep your life jacket inflated.

🫡 Remember: never go vertical if you’re struggling in water-always go horizontal and face up in a back float and breathe.

🤔 Do you know how to go from face down in the water to face up? Follow along as I demonstrate this life saving skill!

⚠️As always be safe, grab a swim buddy and try this in shallow water first!

Focus points:
🔎 rotate your body as a single unit as if you’re a rotisserie chicken

🔎 keep the head close to the surface of the water—no lifting!

🔎 your nose goes from pointing👇🏼to the bottom to pointing up👆🏼to the sky

🔎 arms out on your back; arms stretched forward on your front

🔎 exhale through nose as you roll to keep water out

🔎 immediately inhale through your mouth once you get to your back float

Thanks for reading until the end!

Do you put a lot of effort into your flutter kick with little to no results? Typically this is due to poor leg positioning and hyper-flexed ankles. I’ve been using Zoomers fins for nearly 30 years to improve my own flutter kick and have been recommending them to my students for over 20 years. In this video, I demonstrate how to use them to get smaller, faster kicks and to increase ankle flexibility and thus kicking endurance. Over the years I’ve bought them at the following places tagged below. Use them for kicking face down, face up and vertically.
