The Long Island Swimming Stroke Clinic is the ideal program for swimmers who want to improve their four competitive strokes: Butterfly, Backstroke, Breaststroke, and Freestyle. Swimmers practice and apply drills to improve their technique, making their strokes more efficient. Our trained instructors work with each child in a small group to guarantee individual progress. Swimmers build their overall stamina and endurance in addition to improving their strokes. Many swimmers in the program progress to the next level, our competitive swim team.
​
The 2019 Fall Stroke Clinic session runs now until December 22nd. If you're interested in joining the Stroke Clinic program email Gabby Borutecene @ strokeclinic@longislandswimming.com
