Camp OverviewThese swim camps are designed to improve the swimmers’ technique in all four strokes as well as starts and turns. Our aim is to improve the knowledge of all aspects of swimming; nutrition, strength, teamwork, mental training, race strategies, and much more.
University of Utah Head Coach Joe Dykstra and Head Distance Coach Michele Lowry are leading the staff of Utah Swim Camps. The staff is decorated and well known in the swimming community with merits both internationally and nationally. The staff will focus on creating a comfortable positive environment for the campers; something we believe maximizes the learning for the swimmers. All campers will have two daily swim practices with the focus on technique. During each pool session we offer instant video feedback on all strokes, and/or starts and turns, which maximizes the learning experience. On top of that there will be informational presentations relevant to swimmers; each day will cover a different topic. At Utah Swim Camps we also value the social aspects of the camp and we will have team activities every night allowing the campers to develop their teamwork skills while at the same time enjoying their time with other campers. The camp is open to any and all entrants. Limited to ages 8-18. Please note it is strongly recommended that participants in this camp be able to swim at least 25 yards without stopping in order to be able to fully participate and remain safe in the pool. Space is limited and a waitlist will be made available when all spots are full. |
