Backstroke Kick: Building Leg Drive

Strengthen the Kick – Using my legs efficiently

In our Backstroke Kick clinic, your child will develop the strength and control needed for a powerful kick that supports each stroke. With focused drills like locked knee kicking, vertical kicks, and streamline kick practice, swimmers will build the leg drive essential for maintaining speed and balance. This clinic strengthens their backstroke foundation, creating a steady, continuous kick that propels them forward and keeps their form streamlined and efficient.

Backstroke Catch: Reach & Rotate 

Master Arm Precision – Reach Further, Pull Stronger!

Our Backstroke Catch clinic teaches swimmers to create a powerful, efficient pull by focusing on precise arm positioning and strong rotation. With drills that focus on pinky-first entry, shoulder rotation, and thumb exit, your child will learn how to maximize their reach and pull to move effectively through the water. By mastering the backstroke catch, they’ll gain speed, confidence, and efficiency, making every stroke more controlled and powerful.
