Folks,
Can some of you kind souls help me understand how I can improve my freestyle technique please. Horrible kicking style and lousy streamline. Root cause and any drill suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

There are two segments. Upto 2 min breathing on my left most-comfortable side. After 2 min or so both side breathing which I have been forcing to do - not comfortable at all. There are couple of views in each segment - about a 45-60 sec or so.

Vtesh: you've got some great advice from others. However, this video might help as well as watching the Karlyn Pipes-Neilsen video. Notice how KPN keeps her lead arm extended when she breathes. Also note the breath and stroke timing: her face is back in the water when she starts her stroke. Her elbows are always close to the surface. When her elbow bends for the catch it is close to surface level and outside her body line.
