How can I improve my dolphin kick? I feel that my dolphin kick is weak as anything, and I am having trouble with the nice undulating motion of dolphin kick. I am told that the body should undulate from the armpits all the way down with the hands streamlining and staying quite still. Yet my undulating motion feels unnatural. What are some drills or swims that I can do to improve it? And any other tips anyone can give me about dolphin kicks (the backstroke start dolphin kicks too)? Thanks a lot.

Thanks. That really helped. I'm now thinking of moving abdomen up and down, doing pelvic thrusts in the water =D, then letting the wave travel down to the toes. However, it is not very fast. =(. What are some ways that I can improve my dolphin kick (make it move faster)? I STILL don't feel any power coming from it, and feel like my legs are simply slipping through the water.
Oh please suggest any drills I can do to improve this, or do I just have to power up down the pool 50 times per workout?
