CLINIC DESCRIPTION:
This clinic will transform your swimming by employing the Total Immersion skill sequence of Balance-Streamline-Propel to improve your swim thinking and movement efficiency. You will learn to integrate focal points from the skill sequence into whole stroke freestyle.
Areas to be addressed (time permitting) include:
- Video analysis of your stroke
- Balance-Streamline
Review balance and streamline focal points.
- Propel
Learn to propel forward via directing ‘available’ forces, rather than generating muscular forces. Learn to connect your body mass to the force of gravity in rhythmic weight shifts for ‘free’ power.
- Integrate 2bk and catch
Learn how to aid propulsion with least effort. Aim to streamline and calm legs, giving legs best chance to respond naturally to weight shifts and enhance hip nudge. Learn how, where and when to apply pressure to the water (catch) to aid propulsion.
- Breathing
Breathe easy by learning to integrate a seamless breath into your efficient freestyle.
PLEASE BRING:
Notepad and USB flash drive to take home your swim videos. Swim suit(s), goggles, cap and towel(s). We recommend male students wear Speedo-type briefs or triathlon shorts to reduce drag.
