Full Swing · Drill

Use the feet-together drill for instant balance feedback

Set up with your feet together and your lead foot turned out slightly, then make small swings. Because your base is narrow, any excessive body movement makes you lose balance, which gives immediate feedback that you moved off center. Keep swinging until you learn to swing in balance.
