Everything You Need in One Weekend to Swim Faster, Cleaner, and More Confident.
- Swimming Pool25-yard indoor pool at Pierce Country Day Camp in Roslyn, NY (water around 78°F, plenty of deck space, showers, lockers, and on-site parking).
- Dryland Training45-minute dryland session before each swim where you learn which muscle groups matter most for faster, easier swimming: core, hips, shoulders, and back. Simple strength and mobility work you can repeat at home to keep improving between training sessions.
- In-water workOne focused 2-hour session each day (10:00 AM–12:00 AM). Freestyle and backstroke technique, not just “hard sets,” with underwater and above-water video for every swimmer.
- Coaching approachVideo-driven corrections on deck plus specific drills prescribed to each swimmer based on what shows up on camera. The goal is clear, actionable feedback so you leave knowing exactly what to work on, in
and out of the pool.

FAQ
No. You don’t need to be fast at all – the whole point of this weekend is to help you become a better version of yourself in the water, whatever your starting point is.
All levels are welcome, from confident beginners to advanced swimmers and triathletes. By keeping groups small and focusing on technique, the goal is that you leave as a clearly better swimmer than when you arrived.
You can absolutely come alone, or you can bring a swim‑buddy and both join the camp; if you share a room with your friend, family, partner you’ll save on the total cost of accommodation.
Yes. You can share your hotel room with a non‑swimming partner or friend. If they’d like to join the group for the escape room, dinner, or the recovery session, just let us know in advance and we’ll add their activity fee to your booking.
Bring a swimsuit, goggles, a comfortable pair of fins, a towel, and flip flops for the pool deck and showers. If you have a snorkel or favorite training toys, you’re welcome to bring those too.
