USMS Stroke Development Clinic - Orlando, Florida

USMS Stroke Development and Improvement Clinic for Swimmers - Orlando, Florida

The Florida LMSC is sponsoring a USMS stroke development and improvement clinic for swimmers of all abilities. All four strokes will be evaluated and corrected with the use of drills and coach instruction. Several of the top coaches in the Orlando area  will be on hand, along with mentor coach Mel Goldstein, to help you improve your technique and teach you drills that will enable you to continue to refine your stroke. Swimmers are not required to swim all strokes and may work on only those strokes they choose.
