Curriculum

Feel for the Water

Moving your arms through the water perfectly won't get you anywhere if you don't have a feel for the water. You have to be able to connect to the water to grab it and throw it behind you. Tucker Dupree relies entirely on his feel for the water to allow him to become a world record holder. Learn what it feels like to have a deeper understanding of the way you can achieve maximum power in your strokes!

    Slay the DRAGon:

    Reducing drag is imperative if you want to move through the water quickly and efficiently. Finding a streamlined body position will help you reduce the water resistance so that you go faster!
