Our Philosphy

  • Team competitive swimming
  • Learn to swim
  • Very low swimmer to coach ratio for more personalized attention
Our Delphinus program is designed to provide opportunities for those who want more instruction and a higher degree of feedback to improve their technical and mental sides of swimming. We actually DO treat swimmers as individuals and design their program based on where they are and where they would like to go. Whether you just want to improve your freestyle efficiency for your triathlon, or you want to make the Olympic Trials cut in the 200 Butterfly, we work with you to  help you understand the path to your goals.
