I can do butterfly and I have a nice style to my stroke! My teacher just watched me do the drills I had been practicing and told me to put it together with one kick, one arms (no breath), one kick and breathe. I just got on with it for a full length and she cheered and said, yep, that's butterfly and it looks good.
That's the last of my private lessons done, but I will book a top-up lesson in a couple of months to make sure I haven't slid back into the bad habits and that I can still do the fly. I am so pleased that something I haven't been able to do in all my years of swimming has been conquered in less than a fortnight.

Sweet! You are now a flyer! You bring up a good point. It's easier to swim it without breathing, but then you have the whole "no air" thing going on. Well done!0
