Hi,
I'm a butterfly beginner and currently having problem with my hips sinking too much when my arms start with the recovery. I posted some videos at my blog (http://blog.grkovic.com/?p=30) Hips sink so much that first downkick barely lifts them above them the water. Sometimes, they don't even come out.
If anybody would have any suggestions, I would appreciate it a lot.
Thanks.

Thanks for the tip Rob.
A well known kinesthetic cue would be to deliberately have the thumbs brush the thighs on exit. This would get his hands closer to the midline and further back like you noticed. This could be reinforced with one arm fly drills.
Just to confirm, when my hands leave the water, small finger should be the first part of the hand to break the surface, is that correct?
Thanks.
