    Today I will show the video of a dolphin kick (two phases).

    How to use?

    It is very simple to use this video.

    Just show this video to the swimmers during a session and they need to follow the tips or let them watch the video at home.

    When they come back to practice, ask them to show what they understood from the video and you will see how the kicking will improve.

    Ultra Extreme Open Water and Ice Swimmer, Ryan Stramrood, has been nominated for a prestigious international award. Stramrood is in the running for Man of the Year of the World Open Water Swimming Association. This after he completed a record 109 crossings from Robben Island to Blouberg Beach.

    Stramrood does not back down from a challenge. The Robben Island crossing is an iconic swim of between 7.4 and 11 kilometres in icy cold water.

    “It throws everything at you all the cold water, the currents, the distance, all the things that mess with your mind down there that you see so that’s why I do it so often,” he says.

The 28-year-old was born with a birth defect called fibular hemimilia and had both of her legs amputated at 18 months so she could learn to walk with prosthetics. When she was parking in the handicapped area, a woman had looked ‘disgusted’ at Jessica and came over to ask her why she had parked there.
