Subject: Swim Clinic for New England Folks Hi,
I highly recommend the swim clinics held by CAAN Sports in Weymouth MA.
I took this clinic in January of this year. They taught us about swim technique -- starting with dry land work that you can do at home. You get to take home the dry land equipment (included in the cost of the clinic ). The dry land equipment is a dowel and a home-made swim cord. The swim cord was helpful for teaching muscle memory on how to do the catch and pull part of the stroke.
Next, you will go to the pool and learn how to do some drills. One of the drills uses special home-made paddles that you also get to take home. They will videotape your swim. Then everyone will review the videotape and get commentary on your form. You also get to take home a videotape that reviews the in pool and dry land drills, and shows your swim.
The coaches (Candy and Andy ) are excellent.
They have space in some of their up coming clinics. You can check it all out at www.caansports.com
