Waterdevil Weekly- Week 3 Recap

Another fantastic week has passed and we worked on a lot of things!  Our younger groups continued building a strong foundation with their work on freestyle and backstroke. In our Senior group, our stroke of emphasis this week was butterfly.  The Waterdevils may have some sore core muscles from all of the dolphin kicking they were doing, with and without fins.  We practiced a strong pull in our butterfly, and made snow angels to get our straight arms over the water.  On Friday, we had some exciting relay races and fun games of Sharks & Minnows!

This week, our youngest swimmers will start working on backstroke and our intermediate groups will start working on butterfly, so be sure to bring your fins. In the Senior group, our stroke of emphasis this week will be breaststroke, the most technical of the four strokes.  Practice walking around the house on your heels this week to get those feet flexed!  Hopefully this warm weather will give us an opportunity to spend some time working on our dives as well! Be sure to check in with Coach Erin if you haven't told her what your short and long-term goals are for the season ahead. 

Congratualations to last week's Swimmers of the Week: Holiday, Hudson, Meira, and Ma'ayan. Keep up the great work!
