Drills – Butterfly – An Introduction

This great video clip is from Australian favourite Stephanie Rice.

In this clip Stephanie talks about maintaining a rhythm, keeping elbows high on the arm pull through, leg power and also includes a kick drill, a butterfly speed drill and the underwater dolphin kick.  You can practice the drills, excluding the speed drill, using fins.

Take particular notice of the pigeon toe kick in the video and, in the screen shot below, the high elbows.
