In these videos, I demonstrate how to perform the maneuvers in the way that I teach them. These should be viewed as an example of my communication style and approach as a coach and as a visual aide to improve your understanding, but should NOT be considered to be a replacement for instruction. While I do my best to explain each maneuver with the best balance of brevity and detail possible in the given format, the information in these videos is not fully comprehensive in regards to what is required to safely execute them. Before attempting these maneuvers, a broader understanding of how to mitigate risk and progress at a safe and appropriate rate is absolutely required. The safest possible way to learn these maneuvers is always with ample altitude over the water, with a rescue boat AND life jacket, and using suitable equipment under the direction of an instructor.
