Freestyle Kick Sequence Question

I need some help with the proper kick cadence (sequence) in freestyle. I have been told that at hand entry the opposite side leg should be kicking down. So I guess the sequence should be coordinated as follows: left leg kicks down as right leg kicks up - right arm enters water left leg up/right leg down left leg down/right leg up left leg up/right leg down - left arm enters water etc...... Is this right? I have been having a hard time achieving this and end up kicking sort of randomly. Are there any stroke drills to help implant the correct kick sequence into muscle memory?
