Fitness Swim
RAMS Swim School is offering Fitness Swim a group work out class designed for those wanting to improve, or maintain, their fitness level through the refining of their stroke technique, stroke efficiency and ability to swim long distances (endurance). For detailed description click here.
This class is tailored to meet any and all individual swimming and fitness goals in a social, group setting. Each workout is intended to gradually build endurance, and monthly "time-trials" are used to track and demonstrate improvement throughout each session. Each participant will earn a Fitness Swim T-shirt at the end of the session.
Any swimmer that meets the prerequisites is welcome to join.
* Completion of Advanced Swim Lessons or equivalent skills
* The ability to swim at least 500 yards (20 lengths) using freestyle, backstroke and breaststroke
* A semester long commitment
* Desire to have fun!
Classes will be structured based on the individuals’ goals. Class is limited to 15 people.
Cost: $20 for entire semester
