Past Clinic
This clinic is designed to be a fun experience for young swimmers to build on their love for swimming! We will teach participants the key components to a balanced and efficient butterfly and breaststroke!
BREASTSTROKE: Learn to create a powerful kick while reducing drag, the importance of high elbows and keeping the pull forward of your shoulders.
BUTTERFLY: Butterfly does NOT have to be the hardest stroke! Learn the body movements that will help you make it super easy and much faster!
- BODY POSITION: Maintain a horizontal body line, while generating forward progress, without diving up and down the pool creating unwanted drag.
- KICK: Master the timing of two, equally strong, kicks per cycle. Two kicks will help you maintain rhythm and forward momentum.
- PULL: A high and early catch will allow you to put pressure on the water backwards which will propel you forward.
- TIMING/RHYTHM: Learn the secrets of how to swim fly like a skipping stone - carrying momentum from one stroke to the next.
ASK QUESTIONS: Swimmers and parents are invited to ask the elite clinician questions during a Q&A session. Hear the clinician talk and gain insight into their training regimen, diet and nutrition, as well as recovery methods.
WATCH THE CLINICIANS: Observe the elite clinician swims at full speed and demonstrates a progression of perfectly executed drills to achieve a powerful and efficient stroke.
GET UP AND RACE: Race one of the best swimmers in the world, and watch their near-flawless technique — achieved by practicing the same drills they will teach you.
