Event Description

Join Oakland University Swim Clinics throughout the fall to help improve your stroke, starts, and turns, plus add power to your routine! Led by Oakland University Head Coach Mitch Alters and Assistant Coaches Molly Hebzynski and Jonny Simoes of the Men and Women’s Swim Team. In each session, swimmers will learn the basics of each stroke and new drills they can take with them as they continue their swimming journey. During session one, September 8th, swimmers will learn all about freestyle mechanics and the importance of streamlining. Session two, September 22nd, will focus on backstroke and improving underwater dolphin kicks. Session three, October 6th, emphasizes butterfly and the timing of the stroke while session four, October 20th, will specialize in breaststroke and understanding the connection between arms and legs.

We are excited to introduce two new sessions this fall! Session five, November 3rd, will focus on starts and turns, ranging from front-loaded starts to back as well as mastering flip turns and open turns. Our last session, November 17th, is open to anyone 13 & older due to the equipment we will use. Swimmers will be introduced to power racks, buckets, soxs, and parachutes throughout this session.
