The Better Freestyle Swim Clinic is for intermediate level swimmers who want to improve their skills for exercise and lap swimming, open water and triathlon swimmers. If you can swim a few laps but want to get in a good hour's swim, this program is for you.
Able to swim at least one 25-yard lap without stopping. You will be swimming about 2,000 yards each practice with breaks for rest and instruction. This is not for beginners.
The program progresses through key freestyle fundamentals. The end result is a more efficient freestyle that enables you to comfortably swim for an hour or more.
You will join 12–14 other swimmers and share swim lanes across the pool. All coaching is on-deck, with detailed explanations about the drills and exercises. We use training fins for most practices to support good body positioning. None of the practices are designed to be "workouts" — they are skills-based. You'll receive your own copy of each practice on waterproof paper.
Coach Carl has conducted hundreds of hours of one-on-one private swim lessons for adults and club-level youth swimmers — from "put your face in the water and blow bubbles" to preparation for Ironman swimmers and state-level events. He continues to spend hours each week reviewing top-level coaching videos to refine his teaching approach.
