Kick drills The dolphin, used in the butterfly is more than a kicking action. It is a full body action that starts at the head and flows down through the legs. We see and feel the dolphin most in the legs, because it is moving at the greatest speed and with the greatest force by the time it gets down to the legs. But without initiating this action high in the body, the dolphin is much less powerful. So, when doing drills for dolphin, don’t limit your focus to only the legs. Use the following drills to improve your dolphin technique in butterfly.
