Go Swim Breaststroke with Brendan Hansen - Instructional DVD Review


GoSwim Breaststroke with Brendan Hansen is yet another great instructional DVD from the team of Glenn Mills and Barbara Hummel. Like the Peirsol Go Swim Backstroke DVD, this video breaks the stroke down into 6 key focus areas. By doing this, the viewer can watch a section and focus on that portion of the stroke while practicing until ready to move to the next focus area. After breaking the stroke down into easily practiced parts, the stroke can be performed as one cohesive unit with all parts working together more effectively and correctly.

The instructional DVD comes with a laminated drill guide to help you recall the 6 areas of focus while at the pool.

Learn the importance of:
  • Streamline Timing
  • Connecting Hands, Head and Hips Going to Air
  • Connecting Hands, Head and Hips Going to Streamline
  • Fast Hands
  • Hiding Your Kick
  • Pressing Your Hips UP!
This DVD is appropriate for beginners to accomplished swimmers and is easy to follow as well as enjoyable to watch.



The underwater camera work is excellent and really shows each key area clearly, allowing the swimmer to understand completely what each section is demonstrating.

Go Swim Breaststroke with Brendan Hansen is a MUST-HAVE for age-group youth swimmers, IMers and breaststrokers of any level.
