The Greater Columbus Swim School's

Advanced Technique Stroke Analysis, Dry Land & Sprint Development Camp Series
offered as part of the Greater Columbus Swim School Series


Indisputably the first of their kind in this area and around the country, our 1 Day Stroke Specific Technique Analysis Camps allow you to focus in on each one of the 4 competitive strokes under the eyes of one of our professional coaches. We maintain a very low swimmer to coach ratio (4:1 is our standard although last minute registrations of siblings and such may cause us to allow in 1 or 2 extra athletes) and focus on every aspect of the stroke during each one of these camps. Athletes taking advantage of more than one of these camps will benefit greatly from the fact that they can build upon technique in one camp based on information received in another one of these camps. As beneficial as each camp is separately, athletes participating in multiple camps will clearly gain a better understanding of the technical performance similarities between all 4 competitive strokes. Also available is our Start, Turn & Finish Camp . Offshoots of these camps have arisen across the sport of swimming due to their tremendous success in focusing on one stroke at a time.
Greater Columbus' advanced dry land training program is now being offered in the form of a Dry Land Development Camp , as well. We know of no other camps like this as we will, for the first time, offer insight into the incredibly successful, swimmer oriented, dry land core strength and endurance development program utilized here at Greater Columbus.
Our Holiday Sprint Camp will be in it's second year of operation and will allow local swimmers the opportunity to work with select members of the GCSTO staff on the development of their sprint technique, sprint training practices, sprint race strategies, core strength development and start, turn & finish technique.

Note that all camps will be headed up by GCSTO head coach, Steve Nye, this spring!

Complete Videotaping Service Available

Before and after any of these sessions we will offer the opportunity for athletes to sign up to be taped above and below the water in all 4 strokes. This process takes less than 5-10 minutes per athlete. After editing the tapes, the athlete will then be mailed a disk with their above and below water views. There will be no commentary on this tape as it simply will be provided to you so that you and your coach have this to analyze together. This disk will be easily playable on any current media application. The service is only $60 and covers everything. Your disk will be mailed to you within 48 hours of the end of the camp so that you have quick access to it. To register, simply do so as part of your on-line application process. You may, however, choose to have a complete analysis done of these filming sessions. To do so, please contact our offices to arrange this service. Please see UnderH2O Video Analysis tab on the left for more information about our service. All checks made payable to ACE, Inc. please.
