Project Swim Development Welcome to Project Swim Development , where the focus is on YOU and helping YOU understand the biggest thing holding you back right now. This series includes two in-person sessions over 2 weeks. You need to be available to attend both session. First session is November 22nd and second is December 6th . Swimmers must be able to swim at least a 400 yard/meter continuous swim in order to be part of the project. This is not a learn-to-swim clinic. Our host is the Lifetime Fitness, Algonquin, IL Two sessions will delivered based on your skill level, the instructors will place you in the appropriate group to give you the most benefit. You will notified asap which session you are allocated. It will either be 7:30 to 9:30 a.m. or 10 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. Swimming is a process and in order to maximize the sessions we will be focused on the biggest things holding you back – at your current swimming ability. This is a slightly different approach than we have done before. We feel this will ensure a more targeted approach to the sessions, especially as they are close together. This different approach will ensure that even if you’ve attended our clinics before, this will give you something different. We’ve put together two excellent coaches.
