Location: Spain - Lanzarote
Date:
15 March 2024 till 22 March 2024

This camp, now in its eighth year, is aimed at intermediate swimmers and triathletes / water swimmers who are looking for clear, helpful coaching to learn to swim faster in open water. This camp helps participants to swim faster and more confidently in open water.

Training

This is the camp to learn how to become more self-confident in open water. It helps you swim race distances no matter how far, and teaches you how often to watch and how to breathe relaxed. We can help with OW FC technique because it can differ from pool swimming and wetsuit donning skills. Competition tactics are covered and we assist both triathletes and open water swimmers.

The sessions are perfect for Open-water newcomers to intermediate levels (although several pros have participated in the past!) And the aim is to combine hands-on training with talks, videos and demonstrations. Athletes with several years of experience will find it entertaining and entertaining. Do not forget to bring your swimming equipment.

Reviews from previous participants:

"Wow. You work incredibly hard. Thanks for your talent, swim brilliance, enthusiasm and sense of fun. Book chapters, drill set reminders and the prospect of homework (eek!). And you made time to edit filming of us all - which I'm sure will continue to be super instructive.

Thank you to all concerned. To say that the week is value for money is an understatement. In summary, the swim camp was (very) challenging, instructive and a complete joy! Thank you !! "Karen, 2016

Thank you Dan - definitely my best swim camp so far !! Your inspiration and patience was amazing. I couldn't imagine before I joined this camp that I would be able to complete the 1.9 km open water swim - you and the team were absolutely fantastic from start to finish - thank you ALL. ” Alan, March 2017
