Each day/week, we have up to (8) different coached workouts available, for athletes ranging from newcomers to former collegiate swimmers. If you have never participated in a structured swim program and/or are slower than 2:00 /100-yard pace, we recommend participating in either our 8-Week Beginner 101 Swim Program or Masters E, F or G Groups, so you'll be more comfortable in the group workout environment (if you have questions about any of these programs, please message us or e-mail Coach Brian: [email protected]).
