and yep

I mean start by just sitting at the edge of the pool and then just fall in face 1st leaving the feet behing

Then Try it off the side of the pool standing up.

Then Do it off the diving board walking then just doing it

Then run and do it

After that Run and Jump and Do it

Then do a normal jump and then in mid air try to get in dive form

Then Do a dive and then a flip :-)

Answer 3

You should practice a lot

and also stretch because that will improve your flexibility, which is good if you want to attempt pike dives which have the middle degree of difficulty and also look the nicest.

Also at your local pool club see if there is a dive team, or maybe ask for private lessons so you have individual time with the coach.

Hope this helps

Answer 4

have a swim coach/instructor help you.

one tip that really helped me was (for starts.. of races) was to dive out after the buzzer, and immediately look up..

i didnt describe that very well but if you can figure out what i meant, then try it.
