Swim Skills: Core Control

Core Control Skills for Home: Jellyfish 1 & above
  1. Rolling of the Interior Pelvis-This simulates in the water the body position needed to hold a float and kick correctly at the same time.
  1. Pelvic Tilts: Stand with your legs shoulder width apart. Try to roll the pelvic bone forwards and up, simultaneously tucking in the rear and squeezing the muscles involved.

This is a video that shows another position of also practicing the pelvic tilt.

  1. Superman Rolls/Log Rolls/Side Breath- This simulates how to hold a float position and kick correctly, while rolling from a front float to a back float or vise versa.
Log Roll


  1. Arms and legs up and roll from belly to back. Ensure that they are squeezing their back/bottom when on their stomach.
  2. It would also help to lay on their stomach in this position and kick her legs.

Pro-Tip: Ensure that the turn is powered by their shoulders and waist rather than their head!
