What exactly are
Swim Clinics?:
AthleticFoodie Swim Clinics are a unique chance for Garrett to reach back into the swimming community and work with today’s young swimmers. Specifically tailored to the host community/team, Garrett works directly with swimmers from kindergarten up through high school, sharing his personal story and techniques for improving every child’s swimming experience.
A typical clinic goes something like this:
-Garrett starts with his personal story. His dreams, experiences swimming as a kid, in college, and for the national team. How he worked towards the Olympics and what those incredible moments in Beijing were really like.
-Talk about technique. Garrett gives land demonstrations to help point out key element and then moves things into the pool, showing his tips in action, and focusing on how each
participant can work to improve their own strokes through carefully designed drills.
-Time for starts and turns, getting the attendees in on the action to practice Garrett’s techniques and learn what great starts and turns feel like.
-Q&A with the attendees.
-Olympic GOLD MEDAL show and tell!
-Autographs and pictures with everyone.
Also always included are tips and tricks for recovery, taking care of your body, and the all-important topic of eating and nutrition.
Clinics are truly one of Garrett’s favorite parts about his success. The chance to help kids work towards their dreams and improve their physical well-being is something he loves and takes very seriously.
It’s always a great time and we can’t wait to work with you at the next one!

“I was blown away by the technique clinic that Garrett put on for our team. He truly cares about teaching and connects with each swimmer. Anyone can put on a clinic but it takes someone special to go above and beyond like Garrett did. The kids loved him and they gained so much from the clinic!”
