The students need to be taught how to kick with narrow, fast flutter kicks while wearing fins. The rookie swimmer tends to over-bend their legs and kick with a random, unorganized kick at first. In this video, you will notice that the child is swimming with her head - looking forward. Her posture is compromised. It is difficult to control the head position and the legs at the same time. Therefore, It is best to keep it simpler and teach proper fin kicking with a kick mat first, before trying to teach streamlined fin kicking with arms leading. Master the kick first. Then put it together with the streamline.
