A couple recent
reviews:
"Your
clinic was just what I needed. I felt myself
swimming better in just the short time we spent in
the pool on Saturday. Thanks for all the great
insight..." - DM.
"You
did a GREAT job with the clinic! I'm looking
forward to taking the feedback you gave me with my
stroke to improve my swimming. I also liked the
group setting as many people asked questions that
it was quite helpful to hear the answers as they
are questions that I have had, but didn't think to
ask...The other nice part is all of the
information you've given us on a CD. It's nice to
be able to refer back and review." - CV
