Triathlon Swim Clinics

Triathlon Swim Clinics

Want to work on your stroke technique to assist in your next race? Here is an opportunity to do just that with aquatics staff from RecWell.

We offer clinics that are between 60 and 90 minutes organized in a three-week course, with each progressive week focused on a new area of your swimming technique. Clinic 1 (60 minutes) focuses on the fundamental motion of freestyle, primarily working on drills which emphasize a hip-driven movement and strong core engagement. Clinic 2 (60 minutes) moves on to stroke technique with the central focus on catch and recovery. Clinic 3 (90 minutes) concludes the course progression with instruction on triathlon-specific swimming techniques such as sighting in addition to a brief review of drills practiced in clinics 1 and 2. 

Clinics will be spent working with 2-4 instructors and provide drill instruction which you can apply beyond our clinics to your independent training. 

All swimmers must be able to swim 100 yards continuously.

Cost and Registration

Clinics may be purchased individually or in a set of three to encompass the complete instruction progression. Clinic progressions are offered every month with instruction beginning anew at the start of each month.

  • Individual clinics are offered at $40 per clinic
  • Packages (Clinics 1, 2, and 3) are offered at $100 
  • You may view the clinic schedule here
  • Registration available here
