Swimming Without Stress on Learning to Swim Butterfly

In this clip Ian from Swimming Without Stress talks about his experience of learning to swim butterfly using the Shaw Way to Fly dvd, which is available on the Swimming Without Stress online shop and can also be found in segments on youtube. When you follow the advice on the dvd, it's easier than it looks and a liberating way to move. Before you do anything else, really learn the wave like undulation of the body.

@TheProtege81 My advice for the butterfly is to keep watching Vikki swimming it on the Shaw Way to Fly film. Don't worry about the commentary, just watch her and watch how Steven has learned to think like her. A picture is worth a thousand words, certainly when learning butterfly. One thing that I find useful is the 'breastafly' practise. Go easy on trying to put it altogether as especially with the fly it's difficult not to keep trying the same wrong thing and hoping for different results.

I tried this but I still cannot get my head out of water, though I dont have any problem with the arm movements. when I try to get my head out of the water then I lose my balance then I cannot carry on.
