Georgina Rapids Aquatic Club

A part of swim training is you want to look good and feel good about your strokes and skills. Coach: What strokes do you want to swim today? Swimmer: I want to swim backstroke because that’s my best and favorite stroke. Coach: Alright, let’s do it!

Lots of gains this Fall season, helping swimmers to connect with the water better, so they can move through the water with less resistance. It’s all about Swimming Smart. Well done!

Great to see swimmers focusing on technique over speed (no rush, speed will come). Great job focusing on shoulder roll and recovery.

Great way to end off the 2020 season. Swimmers participated in our Video Day, showcasing the skills they learned or mastered this Fall.

Last 2020 lesson from @wongadrianc: Be brave, keep your chin up, we will get through this together. See everybody in the New Year. Stay connected virtually and stay safe during the holidays.

Our equipment order finally arrived. Very excited to introduce swim training equipment to our young swimmers, especially the use of training fins and appropriate sized pull-buoys. #training

Next week is Butterfly stroke week. Coach @wongadrianc brainstorming different ways to introduce Butterfly kick while waiting for the bus.

Swim Training : Break down swim strokes into its smaller components (body position, legs, arms, breathing, timing and coordination) and work on developing those items individually (I.e. kick technique and endurance) before trying the full stroke as a whole.

Looking at improving your swim and stroke technique? The Development division (ages 8 to 14) is just for you. Learn the basics of competitive swimming today. DM us for more information.

And that’s a wrap! Just finished our first week training at the Georgina Leisure Pool. Thank you all of those who showed interest in our Club. Although tryouts are done, we are still accepting new swimmers who are interested in joining. Please contact us for more details. . .. . We wish everybody a Happy and safe Thanksgiving weekend.
