Better Swimmer Clinic #4: Open Water Swimming

IT'S ALL ABOUT SWIMMING FASTER AND MORE EFFICIENTLY!

The Better Swim Clinics consider the experience and skill level of the participants at each clinic. The clinics are able to work with swimmers with a wide range of skill levels: from the beginner swimmer to those with several or more years of organized swim event experience. Our swim clinics are attended by swimmers who are doing their first ever triathlon all the way up to Ironman and swim endurance athletes.

The series is progressive and we encourage each swimmer to sign-up for the complete series; however, all clinics are designed to include a component for those new to swimming.
