Open Water Swim Clinic

Join Coaches Anne Torrez and Amanda Smith for an open water swim clinic. We will cover race skills including "seeding" strategy, managing race anxiety/panic in the water, simulation of race start, surging, passing, cornering buoys, sighting, drafting and swimming in crowded/choppy waters. Open to beginner and intermediate open water swimmers, or advanced swimmers who would like to refresh their open water/race swim skills. Participants will be split into groups according to comfort and experience level.

Personal Swim buoys are REQUIRED for this clinic. You will not be allowed to enter the water without a swim buoy! You can purchase one at this link with code   SHECOAST20 for 20% off.

Sunday, June 23rd, 9-10:30 am
Lake Gardner, parking lot at 80 High Street, Amesbury, MA
