12 & OVER CAMP
The 12 & OVER CAMP is our most challenging training level. The camp builds throughout the week in both intensity and expectation. State-of-the-art skill progressions are combined with challenging swim sets. Swimmers are challenged to maintain their newly acquired skills throughout each set. Each day begins with a powerful mental presentation emphasizing the important role that the mind plays in peak swimming performance. The underlying “positive mental message” is repeated throughout the day to heighten its impact and create lasting change. Each day of camp ends on a high note with swimmers feeling mentally, technically, and physically empowered.
In addition to our 8 challenging in-water training sessions, this camp includes 4 intense dry-land training sessions, 4 swimming related yoga sessions, and 4 inspiring mental conditioning sessions.
Note: The 12 & Over Camp is not well suited for swimmers with swimming-related injuries.
11 & UNDER CAMP
The 11 & UNDER CAMP is the lead-up training level to the 12 & Over Camp. The daily structure is similar to the 12 & Over Camp, but the skill progressions and challenging swim sets are adjusted to reflect skill and performance levels. Lane assignments for swimmers are based on ability level rather than age. Like the 12 & Over Camp, each day begins with a powerful mental presentation emphasizing the important role that the mind plays in peak swimming performance. The underlying “positive mental message” is repeated throughout the day to heighten its impact and create lasting change. Each day of camp ends on a high note with swimmers feeling mentally, technically, and physically empowered.
In addition to our 8 challenging in-water training sessions, this camp includes 4 intense dry-land training sessions, 4 swimming related yoga sessions, and 4 inspiring mental conditioning sessions.
TOP 10 CAMP
The TOP 10 CAMP is the lead-up training level to the 11 & Under Camp. 10 & Under swimmers are a unique group who require extra care and attention. That’s why we created a swim camp just for them. Participants should exhibit a basic understanding of the four competitive strokes and turns, and the two competitive starts (front and back). In addition to numerous skill progressions and individual critiques throughout, we offer age appropriate physical challenges as well as fun aquatic games to round off each day. Our expert coaches are masters at developing and refining essential start, stroke, and turning skills.
The TOP 10 camp includes: 8 in-water training sessions, 4 dry-land training sessions, 4 swimming related yoga sessions, and 4 inspiring mental conditioning sessions.
