Masters Swimming
Max Multisport Coaching Masters Swim Team
Max Multisport's Master Swim Program includes three workouts weekly. Our program is open to men and women. (check times for co-ed and women-only times) Participants receive all three workouts each week via e-mail and are encouraged, but not required, to attend all group workouts. If you can only occassionally come to a group workout, check out our group punch card program.
Coached by professional and certified coaches, this program is designed in preparation for local swim meets. Workouts focus on turns, starts and relay starts, as well as stroke technique. We also provide all athletes with dry-land and core exercises to improve overall swim strength. We also teach you additional strokes such as fly, breast and backstroke. 
Please note: This is not a learn-to-swim program. Please check out Max Multisport's swim class offerings for basic swimming fundamentals. We ask that you have capability of swimming at least 200 yards non-stop prior to joining this program.
This program runs annually from October through April. You can jump in at anytime, just note that we are working on endurance and base in the fall months and then progressing to speed. It is best to work with us in the fall months so you can develop endurance and a base.
