About
FINS Swimming offers year-round swimming that includes private lessons, small group lessons, a Masters (Adult) Swim team, training sessions, and specialized clinics. The program focuses on swimming throughout the year with both indoor and outdoor options and keeps the same coaches across different pools for consistent instruction. Assistant coaches are in the water with younger swimmers giving hands-on instruction, and the program focuses primarily on technique and perfecting all four strokes before higher-level training.
