Most important (as a beginner) is relaxing! Lol. I've taken 4 lessons so far. Thanks to your videos, my instructor always tells me my technique is REALLY good. However, my body still won't fully relax. So my arm strokes are good, my breathing and body position is good, and my kicking is good. I still run out of breath way too fast because I'm so tense. So I'm putting way too much energy into everything because I just can't fully relax for some reason. I have no problem going under water or doing anything, so I'm not sure what the problem is. She tells me all the time I need to get out of my head. Your videos helped me so much. I was able to progress a lot faster thanks to you!

Excellent video. Hardest thing for me (Im 73) is the timing of the breathing. Im finding it really difficult to break the habit of a lifetime breathing during the recovery stroke while pulling with the opposite arm. Somehow need to delay that stroke and swim a sort of catch-up. Ill try it in the pool next time and see how I get on. Thanks for the tips and drills

The best video without question! I felt like you were coaching me through the screen. There were the exact mistakes I made no matter how many videos I watched. I will now work on them. And these mistakes enervated me very very quickly, I was out of breath after just 1 lap.

I couldnt learn swimming as a child because the pool was too far and too crowded. But 30 years later, Im learning to swim now by watching your videos and practicing in my apartment pool everyday. Thank you for the detailed explanations!

I had a big breakthrough today, I think because I started my breath when my arm reaches my leg as you say at the beginning of this video. For the first time I completed 9 laps (1/4 mile) in a 30 minute session. Thank you!

I learned to swim 55 years ago. This is a different rhythm. Its hard to break old habits but doing the drills to separate the different components should help. Thank you for breaking it down in that manner.

Thank you for your great video! I learn a lot. Breathing timming and returning your head in neutral position before starting to push is the key to swim a good freestyle.

thanks for the great videos and app!
question: Can I exhale a bit of air left when turning my head for air, or only inhaling is allowed?
Thanks.

This is very correct. I sometimes lose balance when taking breath. I just found out that I should not pull my left arm before my head returns to water

Breathing and body position are the most important. I can right now perform arm strokes and kicks, but I still have the problem of breathing
