Discover your life aquatic

Program Summary:

This afternoon course is for triathletes and swimmers training for 1/2 ironman and full ironman distances. In two pool sessions and a classroom video session, you will learn where you can gain efficiency and speed in your freestyle and eliminate the common obstacles that tend to hold triathletes back from better performance. 

In this session, we'll cover:

•  a review of the fundamentals of efficiency covered in the first two clinics + 2 beat kick
•  open water skills you can work on in the pool including sighting, navigation, buoy turns, drafting and swimming in crowds
•  training plans for efficiency and distance

Cost: $100 + HST for 3 hours of coaching and video analysis.

Pre-requisites: 

Participants should be able to swim freestyle for 100m non-stop.

Is this for me?

This is a private group session. The pool sessions will usually require a short warm up 300-600m for video taping and some faster swims to see how your technique holds up at higher intensities. Expect to also do some drills in the water and possibly on dryland.
