Re:DIR Practice Group

What's with the "arching the back"? I haven't specifically heard of this. Do you mean arching your back down to get your head up, or arching your back up to get your head down?


When I first got my doubles put together I spent a few pool sessions just working on trim, helicopter turns, streamlining, doing "rolls", headstands, picking up and dropping stages, frog kicking, modified flutter and maneuvering along the lines of the pool. It was great experience and I recommend to anyone, not just DIR people, to take time with yourself and work on your foundation skills. It really paid off for me when hitting my cave classes! We spent more time having fun and probably went farther because I wasn't a cluster$%k in the water. Back arching?
