Fact of the week: Pull, kick, glide. Sounds simple, and it is, at first. However, to swim efficient and FAST breaststroke takes patience, practice, and an out-of-ordinary focus on technique details. The breaststroke pull has 4 general parts (outsweep, catch, insweep, recovery). The breaststroke kick has 3 general parts (upkick, ankle/foot flex, back/downkick). And for a swimmer to maximize his/her glide, the TIMING of the pull and kick must be precise.
How does my swimmer move up? Our group promotion standards are your guide to growing and graduating! Promotion times can be achieved in practice or swim meets. We prefer to see them happen at a swim meet!
See you at the pool!
