Review by E. Reeher for Better Fly for Every Body - A Total Immersion (Swimming Instructional) Rating: Wow, I could have used this butterfly lesson years ago. I did butterfly as a kid swimmer - mostly, just gutting it out with youth and energy - but without any finesse. As an adult, that wasn't working for me. I've been doing the described drills after my workouts and have definitely seen a change in my stamina and strength. I highly recommend this dvd. Once again, however, I wish there would have been information about turns and pushoffs as that is something I'll need in Masters' competitions. Great verbal imagery to help you think about your body position and effort.

Review by Wonderfish for Better Fly for Every Body - A Total Immersion (Swimming Instructional) Rating: As someone who benefitted from his first Total Immersion video, I was extremely disappointed with this one. It should have been entitled "Better Fly for Old Geezers" as the guy can't even DO the butterfly with any kind of form due to his (admitted) inflexibility. I'm close to his age but still want to learn the real stroke. He has a younger,more limber swimmer in the video, but that guy has virtually no time on the screen. Save your money and look at the JimmyDShea videos on YouTube - he rocks!

Review by C Brit for Better Fly for Every Body - A Total Immersion (Swimming Instructional) Rating: 40 years as a freestyle swimmer gives authority to teach, 40 minutes as a butterfly swimmer does not. Watching a middle aged man give tips standing waist deep in a pool is vaguely embarrassing and poor use of video. The two insights given ( pierce the water and move over your anchored hands ) are hardly worth the price of admission. The Go-Swim video with Misty Hyman is more structured, helpful and insightful for an improvement-minded swimmer
