Curriculum
Freestyle
Freestyle is the most technical stroke and it is also the stroke that you swim more than any other. Emily Brunemann will be in the water teaching both basic foundations of technique all the way to challenging drills designed to help your swimmer approach technique differently at this high performance swim clinic. Skills will include:
- Bodyline: Your freestyle will never be fast without a strong bodyline. Your swimmer will learn to maintain good posture and engage their core to have a foudation for a stronger and faster freestyle.
- Kick: Become a stronger and faster kicker through learning about both the technqiue and timing of each kick from a National Champion.
- Pull: The Freestyle arm pull has 5 parts. The goal is to be as efficient as possible in pushing your body past your hand. Your swimmer will learn to get more out of every stroke
- Rotation: Your swimmer will learn to utilize their rotation form more connection and power out of every stroke and every kick.
- Breath: Emily will show you how to make each breath more efficient for faster freestyle racing no matter what distance.
