USMS Stroke Development Clinic

USMS is sponsoring a USMS stroke development and improvement clinic for swimmers of all abilities. The morning session will focus on Freestyle and will be evaluated and corrected with drills and coach instruction. After the morning session, those staying for the afternoon session will have a lunch provided for them in the classroom.

After lunch the afternoon will session will focus on the other three strokes. They will be evaluated and corrected with the use of drills and coach instruction. Mel Goldstein will be on hand 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. All swimmers must be able to swim a minimum of 200 yards comfortably.
