I just finished up the Learn to Swim: Dolphin kick video. One of the things I love about this progression is that it is one single drill that uses progressive focus points to evolve the kick. Check it out! https://youtu.be/6FGjVIkvEEM

This is the last video I have planned at this point, but if you have any requests/suggestions let me know! Thanks and Happy New Years!

Teaching swimmers of all ages and abilities over the past 15 years has provided me endless learning opportunities in helping swimmers learn how to swim. While there is no replacement for in-person instruction it is my hope that this Adult Learn to Swim video helps people, no matter of past experience, start in on their swim journey. It is a step-by-step progression that helps adults stay relaxed in the water while getting comfortable with building the four aspects of their stroke: 1) breathing, 2) body position, 3) kick, and 4) arms. In my opinion, the progression itself and the swimmer shots are solid. But, this may very well be a draft as I would like to get the shots of my descriptions in more of a swim setting (instead of random rooms in the house) and any feedback you have on any of the video is greatly appreciated. Have a watch and let me know your thoughts. Thank you! https://youtu.be/So583f3iOC0
