Stroke Improvement
Take your swimming to the next level. We identify and correct bad habits, streamline your movement, and increase your endurance for a smoother, faster swim.
Refine Your Routine
Knowing how to swim is just the beginning. Our dedicated stroke improvement classes are for both fitness enthusiasts and aspiring athletes who want to eliminate drag and maximize propulsive force. We focus on continuous improvement through meticulous drill work.
Initial Assessment
We begin with a comprehensive visual assessment of your current strokes to identify areas of excessive drag, incorrect body positioning, or inefficient breathing patterns.
Breath Control & Timing
Learn to breathe rhythmically without disrupting your stroke cycle. Proper breath mechanics prevent exhaustion and maintain optimal body rotation in the water.
Progressive Drill Sets
We use specific, targeted drills (e.g., catch-up drill, fingertip drag) to isolate aspects of the stroke, allowing you to build muscle memory for the correct movement.
Kick Mechanics
A strong kick drives a strong stroke. We work on ankle flexibility, kicking from the hips rather than the knees, and understanding timing variations like the 2-beat and 6-beat kick.
Pacing Strategies
Understand how to control your speed. We teach you how to find your "cruise" pace for distance swimming and how to engage your sprint gears without losing technique.
Expert Observation
Continual feedback from coaches who know exactly what to look for. Even minor adjustments to hand entry or hip rotation can result in massive improvements in water.
