Wouldn’t you like to learn an easier and faster way to swim?  

Then YOU will really benefit by attending a Faster Freestyle Swim Clinic led by Hall of Fame swimmer Karlyn Pipes www.karlynpipes.com

Using simple and easy to understand drills and techniques, after just one session you will become a better swimmer. Karlyn will also provide you with the tools and reminders so you can continue to fix your stroke...long after the event is over.

“I just want to let you know how much I improved after taking your Faster Freestyle Swim Clinic. My times continue to drop and now swimming is much more fun. One month after taking your workshop I dropped 15 seconds in my 200-free. Considering I’ve been a swimmer all my life, I think that’s pretty amazing! I’ll be back the next time you come to town for a refresher. Thanks!  -Tere O’rourke  2023

Here are some suggestions to help prepare for this event:

IMPORTANT! If you get cold easily, please consider bringing your wetsuit. I try to find the warmest pool available but even in 82-degree water, you may get cold. Even if you do not wear it, it is nice to have the wetsuit as an option.

Arrive early: Please arrive at least 15 minutes prior to the start of the clinic. If you have never been to this pool, please allow even more time due to traffic, getting lost etc.

What to bring: An open mind, water bottle, snacks, towels, goggles. If you get cold easy be SURE TO BRING YOUR WETSUIT. You do NOT need equipment such as paddles, kickboards or buoys, but fins are ok.
