Extra weight

Where should you put your extra weights?

When teaching beginning students, many instructors will leave extra weights at the water’s edge in case they are needed. Doing so is a good idea. What is not a good idea is leaving those weights in the wrong place.

Our new floating dock has not one but two places that are ideal for this. This two-minute video will show you where.

What you should remember from this includes:

  • Keep the area between the entry and exit stairs clear of any cylinders or weights that could get in the way of students practicing giant strides.
  • The two narrow dock sections outside the stairs are the best places to leave your extra weight.

Miss Virgil thanks you for your cooperation.
