I am having siginificant difficulty learning the modern breastroke kick. I am still trapped in the ways of my youth with the wide frog kick.
When I try the more closed kick I see used today, I end up floundering and looking quite odd. By the end of every lap, I have confused the kick so badly that it is quite possible I may be moving either sideways or backwards.
Does anyone have any suggestions for how I can learn the newer kick?
Thanks

Wayne has some good links on his web page. Encluded here is a page with breaststroker Dave Denniston in associaltion with Glenn Mills (breaststroker 1980 Olympics-the unfortunate olympiad). It will take some time to download the quicktime but it shows with clarity the timing of the stroke, and the kick.
