🏊‍♂️ AQUALIGHT INSIGHTS #4: THE BALL-ON-THE-WALL DRILL 🎾

Good freestyle is about what your head and body are doing together.

Try this simple dry-land drill: keep a ball gently balanced against the wall with your head, maintaining a neutral, stable head position while your body moves.

What are we working on?
• Head stability
• Head and spine alignment
• Body control and awareness

Why does it matter?
A stable head helps the rest of the body stay aligned, reducing unnecessary movement and helping swimmers develop a more efficient freestyle position.

At Aqualight, we love drills that help swimmers feel and understand a movement, not simply copy it. Small changes in body awareness can make a big difference in the water!

Give it a try - can you keep the ball in place? 👀🏊‍♀️

AQUALIGHT SQUAD TRAINING - INSIGHTS #04

Head stability = better freestyle 🏊‍♀️

A common mistake in freestyle is letting the head lift or move too much when turning to breathe. The goal is to keep the head stable and rotate smoothly with the body.

In this drill, we focus on:
• Keeping your head still as you turn to the side
• Avoiding lifting the head to breathe
• Maintaining a relaxed, controlled rotation
• Keeping your hand entry clean at around the 11 & 1 o’clock positions - without crossing over

Small changes in head position can make a big difference to your body alignment, balance, and efficiency in the water.

🎥 Try the drill and see how stable you can keep your head!

We hope you are all still enjoying your summer holidays! 🌊☀️ This is a great little reminder for all our Aqualight swimmers: being able to float on your back is an important water-safety skill.

If you find yourself struggling in the water, remember the RLSS UK Float to Live advice: stay calm, turn onto your back, float, and breathe.

Why not practise your back float next time you’re in the pool? 💙 Even a few minutes of relaxed floating can help build confidence and an important skill that could one day make all the difference.

Swim smart. Float to Live. 💙
