Coach Mandy is a national treasure.
Thanks coach Mandy, today I could do the dolphin kick as described by you. It took me few days but finally I could do it. Thanks a lot
Nice Work Sandeep! The more consistent you are with practicing this kick, the easier it will be. The more relaxed you are, the more fluid the movement becomes. Keep it up! 😀🏊 -Coach M
@@SWIMVICE does the dolphin kick comes from the hip as freestyle coach
?
N'shon hosten yes! 👍🏼🏊🏼♂️
Today 🏊♂️ session i feel great! I easily adapted the dolphin kick through with this videos ! So proud of myself! Thank you for this!🙏🏼💪🏼
Thank you❤❤❤
Thank you for always sharing a simpler and easy to follow technique. More power to you.
a wealth of information - no excuses for not learning - you give us the tools
thank you, love your simple demonstration!
Amazing it was difficult to do that .but seeing your video I felt I can do that .
Try these drills in a shallow pool. Stop and stand up when you need to breathe. :-) -Coach Mandy
Thank you so very much Coach Mandy, going to try it out tomorrow morning at the pool. 🙏
Good for you, how did it go?
That is a great dolphin kick lesson, it is perfect preforming a chest, hips, kick underwater, I'm going to try it on lap swim especially doing a flip turn, thanks.
412Flame excellent! Have fun and let me know how it goes! 🙌🏽😄🏊🏼♂️💪🏽 -Coach Mandy
@@SWIMVICE Just tried learning the dolphin kick the first time by pressing my chest, hips, and foot down on lap swim at Fitness & Aquatics Center and it was better, I'll keep practicing on my dolphin kick, how about a rotation of a dolphin kick after performing a flip turn, can you upload that please, thanks.
I have a terrible dolphin kick but can’t wait to try this breakdown. Terrific informative video.
Mark Stewart great! Definitely take your time with drill #1 this will help you start the movement properly. Always remember to relax your neck and shoulders and you’ll start the path correctly. 🙌🏽😎🏊🏼♂️ -Coach Mandy
I'm trying out for a swim team tonight. Butterfly is my weakness, so I'm using this to help. I'll keep you updated!
So how did it go
@@MRcz-xu9im Great! Thank you so much for asking!

Perfect description Coach
Wow👏👏..thank you..👍👍..its really work on me....yeah..God Bless You..🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thank you for watching! Enjoy your practice 🙌🙏
Thank you coach Mandy!❤
I'm trying to improve my transition from dolphin to free style and back stroke. I feel it's area i need to work on to make the next step. I can't wait to practice the tips. Bless you 🙏🏿 ♥️ 🙌
You're very welcome! 🏊♂️ I'm glad to hear that you're focusing on improving your transitions and working on taking those next steps in your swimming journey. Transitioning between dolphin, freestyle, and backstroke can be a challenge, but with practice and dedication, you'll see great progress.
Remember, every stroke you take is a step closer to your goals. Keep practicing those tips, stay patient with yourself, and you'll notice improvements over time. If you have any questions along the way or need further guidance, feel free to reach out. Blessings to you too, and happy swimming! 🙏🏼💙🙌🏼
Warm regards,
Coach Mandy
i've always had difficulty in teaching and explaining HOW to initiate pushing the chest down!! what muscles initiate that movement?? the head?? which is probably not a good idea since it would afffect the streamline position. how does one push the chest down when confronting water as your anchor?? out of the water you simply bend at the waist but in water it seems likea futile effort. or is there a bend at the waist??
very helpful!! - i just recently fell in love with swimming
Welcome to the channel Steven! Be sure to stay connected and keep me posted on your progress. 🙌🏊♂️ Coach Mandy
Watched it … now going for the practice run !! Will edit my comment … Dolphin kick is something that is over my mind for more than 2 years now !! Let’s go !!
Update : Good progress … the drill helped mentally .. I was always counting .. heads .. hip and kick
Awesome, enjoy your practice Anup! 🙌🏊♂️😄 -Coach Mandy
@@SWIMVICE Thanks a ton Coach !! I was also able to kick start my journey for butterfly stroke … although my form was poor but was able to complete my first butterfly lap courtesy dolphin kick !! 😀😃
Hello Coach I will definitely try this at the pool
mohd junaid great! Keep me posted on your progress! 🏊🏼♂️🙌🏽😄 - Coach Mandy
Thanks, im trying this tonight🎉
Hi CoachM
Can you recommend me some strengthening exercises for my back muscles?
I am trying to develop my butterfly but I think I have weak back muscles...every time I practice fly I end up with lumbar contractures!!!
Thank you, very helpful!
Nice tips, thanks.
I would however suggest using fins, preferable light long fins. Since that what I used to learn dolphin kicking just by watching people do it at the pool.
Because I think it helps isolate the feet from the rest of the body. Which most beginners struggle to do, because it adds resistance to your feet movement. Plus it gives you a nice push that gives you a sense of achievement. Which also changes in its strength based on how well or bad you're kicking. I don't know how to accurately describe it, it just gives you "flexibility" in your dolphin kicks.
Al-Bader Bu-Hamad yes definitely fins are great for ankle flexibility! I go into detail about fins in one of my other videos. However, it’s good to at least try this without fins first, then add them later if needed. 👍🏼 -Coach M
Awesome video, lots of usefull information packed very time efficient!

I’m trying to learn the butterfly stroke and I’m starting with learning the dolphin kick.
I like how you said chest hips kick
Enjoy your practice Sophia and welcome to the SWIMVICE channel! 😀🏊 -Coach Mandy
Thanks, great clip
Thanks
Amazing 😍😍 coach this video helped me a lot thank u 😊💕💕💕💕💕
Hi coach Mandy! I wish you see my comment. I was just struggling applying the dolphin kick. Now after watching this tutorial many times analyzing every word I found myself doing it smoothly in the pool from the first time 😊😊😊😊 Just as you said "Always the movement is down". This became the keyword for me. Thanks a lot for your advices coach 🙏🙏. By the way I figured something out. In this head-hips-feet cycle according to the order, head and feet almost move together in the same direction upward/ downward. So I make it easier for myself by thinking of them as two group instead of three single elements. Head-feet group motion and hips group motion. So what is your opinion coach?
Hello! I'm glad to hear the tutorial was helpful! While it's great that you found a way that works for you, it's essential to note that the head, hips, and feet are traditionally considered three isolated movements in the dolphin kick for specific biomechanical reasons. Each element contributes to the overall efficiency of the kick. However, individual variations can be effective, and if your technique feels comfortable and produces positive results, that's fantastic! Keep refining your approach, and if you have further questions or insights, feel free to share. Happy swimming! Coach Mandy 😎🙏
Very informative
You rock lady
Kudos!
"Chest-Hip-Kick", I will apply this to my dolphin kick, thanks!
0:37 jeez blinded me lol
same
Nice dolphin kick
Thank you so much! I’ve been trying to learn this, you made it very easy to understand. Lots of gratitude. I’m sending your way.
Question, when you were on your back, how do you not get water in your nose? Any tips as to breathing and not getting water in your nose?
Thanks!
The best video out here coach😎
Thank you for your support! 🙌🙏✅ - Coach Mandy
I haven't been in the water for what seems like Ever. When I do get back, I will be trying this as I've always wanted to learn it Properly!
As easy as this looks though, keeping the procedures.....C-H-F....in mind.....seems to make it harder. Or maybe I might have Simplified by abbreviating Chest Hips Feet! Hope I am in soon! Thx!!
Yes Wayne, I completely understand. If anything, you can still practice this movement out of the water until you are able to safely swim again. Sending positive vibes to you and everyone out there that we can all go back to swimming like we did before the pandemic. We've got this - stay patient, stay grateful, stay healthy! 🏊🙏🙏🙏🙏 Best, Coach M
thank u,I'mma try this next time I'm at the pool:)
Well done Mandy, helps heaps.
🏊♂️ Awesome Brian, glad this video helped! Thank you for your feedback and enjoy your practice. -Coach Mandy
Thankyou
Best tutorial video I've ever watched... Simple but still detailed and easy to understand yet so deep. Thank you coach. Can't wait to practise this
This is a great drill. But not sure about this order of pressing down: 1 shoulders, 2 hips, 3 feet. The hips are in the down position BEFORE the shoulders press down. When the shoulders press down, the hips move up.
Omg...omg... thank you very much for dedicating this vedio to me, I am really relishing it. The way you have explained the dolphin kick is really commendable. It will help me a lot. I am really obliged coach Mandy. Thanks a lot.
sandeep gupta you’re welcome! 😎
Your swimming goggles very good, may I know where did you bought it.? 🙏
Excellent Information
It will be my new routine drill for a month...😢
Thanks, coach ☕🌹
Thank you coach... Cool.. That's what I need..
Thank you so much! i passed my pool assessment as part of my swim teacher quals thanks to this video ❤️👋
Awesome Julia! 🙌 Glad this video was helpful and congratulations! Definitely stay connected. Would love to read more about your progress 🏊♀️💪 -Coach Mandy
@@SWIMVICE Thank you! Yes, happy to share as I progress. I am at the very start of my new career!
Thanks so much very helpful!!
I enjoyed the video 😃😃😃😃🏊🏊🏊
The best swimmers maximize their propulsion by kicking first down and then up. Working on both movements is equally important if you want to increase eficiency and gain speed.
Thanks ❤️
Great stuff, thanks!
Can you please do a video on how to breath when swimming dolphin kicks
How many days to learn this?
Can this be done with the flippers?
How do you breathe?
Great video btw
When we do dolphin kick at the surface(not inside the water), my coach said to only mechnical movement to be done from core(not the chest or shoulders) and then bend the knees a little, is that right way of dolphin at the surface? please help.
Well explained. Ty
Thank you for watching! 🙏😄🏊♂️ -Coach Mandy
Very nice vid thanks! 👍
Tq so much 👍
Unfortunately I don't know English but I like your videos and your bitter soul
Hey mandy please make video on dolphins kicks elborated one like step by step I mean first how to down chest then position of hips and last how to kick and then combine one and yeah exercises too so that we can learn it step by step I hope you read this comment and make the video on it
Great video! I was wondering if anyone could tell me why when I try to dolphin kick underwater without fins or a monofin that I just float to the surface almost immediately?
Thank you for your feedback. Yes - you have to exhale a little to change your buoyancy. Hope this helps! - Coach Mandy
I randomly opened this video and it happened to be my gym 😂
Do u hold your breath while doing this?
Hello Ma'am... Hoping to see you on how to swim and maintain underwater while swimming. I really want to learn on how to do it.. Thank you so, so much for your time reading...
Fleurdeliz Alarca definitely! 🙌🏽😄 -Coach Mandy
Jmo, start with, breath control and proper head placement first.
Keep eyes down looking at the bottom of the pool and water level above the ears. Looking up , causes your legs to sink and you end up swimming upwards when you should be swimming downwards.
Looking up als0 shortens the spine, and looking downwards lengthens the spine (what we want our spine to do).
Part of breath control is staying streamline, so before you get your swim underway, you need to learn the proper way to breathe on the side by turning your head while staying streamline as possible. Don't look up to the ceiling as you do the breath, and keep the bottom side of your turned head in the water (don't lift the head).
Many videos out there on freestyle swimming and breathing efficiently.
For those with neck issues, try adding a snorkel designed for lap swimming for your breathing. Jmo. Hope it helps.
At last i can learn the dolphin kick
❤Tnx ❤
This is gold. thank you so much
Robert Rozek You’re welcome! 🙏🏽
Excellent.
Very good
dam i shared twice
Nice tutorial,👌👍
Hi,, why when I do dolphin kicks it takes me deeper and deeper, is that normal?
Iy´s hard to get good speed and aceleration . My 50 m butterfly it´s 30 sg , because i don´t have a good under kick afetr the entry .
Thx Mandi
Do you scuba dive, Mandi?
Plz show how to stay stil in water for longer time!!
Helpful video
mrsNetty34 🙏🏽
A lot of videos here on UA-cam mention that you should be looking to generate power not only on the downwards motion of your kick, but also on the way up. What do you think of this? Should it be a point of focus while practicing the dolphin kick?
Thank you Mandy mam
1-Please , demonstrate the breathing methods in dolphin swimming.
2- Clarify the proper way of high elbow catch in a slow motion video.
Regards.
Thanks :)
More on butterfly timing please
Yes, definitely 👍✅
Quick and informative, thanks.
Hi elena thank you for your feedback. Have you tried any of the drills out at the pool yet? Drop a comment and let me know how it goes! 👏🏼🙌🏽💪🏽🏊🏽♀️ -Coach Mandy
SWIMVICE yes, I did try something from another video. You explained where to put our harms on regular free style and it made sense to me. I tried it and I think I’m improving I just have to remind myself of keep doing it.
Complete noob in swimming. Can't do a 50m freestyle without getting out of breath. Would it make sense to start practicing this?
Thank you for this. I always wanted to do it properly but can't seem to coordinate my body. I will try this tonight! Nice video that explains it well.
Good for you, how did it go?
So it's kind of like doing "the worm" but the water!
You're a wonderful instructor I'm just a terrible swimmer
You just need time, consistency, and practice. I got you! 🏊♂️🙌🙏☝️ -CM
Very nice, can you put translate arabic in videos
beatifull tutorial and demonstration coach M but... there is always a but, might you borrow me your hamstrings? mine are nowhere near so proficient like yours 😄
Luca Gian haha I just might need to add some great exercises to help with that! Stay tuned! 😎🏊🏼♂️👏🏼 -Coach M
