Curriculum
In Water
Freestyle & Breastroke – Rotation & Distance per Stroke: The rotation involved in the long axis strokes of freestyle set up swimmers for a quick and powerful catch while keeping drag on the swimmers as low as possible. Taking fewer strokes during a race is a key to pacing and race conservation. Learn the drills that Zane, Lindsay, and Cody use to have an evenly balanced freestyle and efficient breastroke.
Freestyle & Breastroke – High Elbow Catch: Having an early high elbow catch on freestyle and breastroke set up swimmers for the most efficient stroke possible while maintaining long term shoulder health. Cody, Lindsay, and Zane will explain how to achieve a high elbow catch for the best pull possible.
Freestyle & Breastroke – Body Line: Holding a long tight bodyline is an essential skill for all strokes. It maximizes the distance of each stroke and leads to more explosive turns and starts. Cody, Lindsay and Zane will explain how to hold a tight line while swimming freestyle and breastroke.
