Cost (make checks payable to SRA):
- $50 for 10 classes
- $60 for 12 classes

Adult Swim Conditioning
For the 18th year, SRA offers evening adult swim clinics led by Collegiate Head Swim Coach Mike Stott. To register, or for answers to questions, please contact Mike at michaeljstott@comcast.net or (804) 288-8808; (cell: (804) 921-8808). Cost: $125 per eight class session; Drop-ins welcome at $20 per class.
If you have been thinking about joining either of the SRA Adult Swim Clinics stop thinking and JUST DO IT! The Stroke Clinic will focus on correct technique and how to swim the four basic strokes of freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke and butterfly. If you are a confirmed lap swimmer or a lap swimmer hopeful this session will get you going. Two other reasons to get on board might be to better understand what your children do on the swim team. Or perhaps you have visions of entering a KILLER Family Relay on the 4th of July. For those of you who once learned to swim and want a refresher the first eight sessions of Clinic 1 (Stroke Clinic) are for you. What was taught years ago is not what is being taught now.
Session One: Stroke Clinic
We’ll have excellent demonstration by some of the state’s best swimmers. No time trials unless requested. Among our many graduates are Dabney Carr, Elizabeth and Alex Bolin, Jane Nelson, Parker Hale, Johanna Minich, Wiley Hunnicutt and Caroline Kettlewell-Sites. Open to all levels of swimmers.
If you have fins, bring them. If you do not, email me your shoe size and I will bring fins for you.
Session Two: Conditioning Clinic
Focus is on conditioning and gaining speed. Last year’s attendees made considerable gains in their aerobic capacity and, aside from some snide remarks to the coach, appeared to be appreciative of the opportunity to stretch themselves in a supervised swimming setting.
Again, if you have fins, bring them. If you do not, email me your shoe size and I will bring fins for you.
Adult Private Swim Lessons
In recent years, SRA adults have asked for private lessons (adult or summer league swimmers) when clinic times have not suited work and family schedules. Collegiate Head Swim Coach Mike Stott offers these at $30 per half hour. Please contact him at michaeljstott@comcast.net or 288-8808, (cell) 921-8808.
Beginner Swim Clinic (Ages 4-10)
- Cost $75 (please make checks payable to George Moore)
- Registration is through the office
