Although we use scientific training principles to help swimmers achieve maximum performance in the water, We believe in developing swimmers who thrive in and out of the water. Our culture is built around these 6 C's:

Connection: We foster trust and friendship between swimmers, as well as open and comfortable connection between families and coaches. Swimmers can form social connections with their peers that can last a lifetime.

Competition: We know the race is always against ourselves: Are we improving a little over where we were the day before? We focus on racing ourselves and each other with integrity and intensity.

Commitment: Swimming isn't always easy and brings with it natural challenges of weather and feeling tired. Active recovery is part of our program, letting swimmers feel confident in committing to showing up,.

Communication: We talk openly and listen actively, both on deck and off. Coach's office hours allow both parents and swimmers face-to-face time to talk through any challenges, questions, or concerns with their coach's full attention. 

Caring: We celebrate each other's victories and support each other through setbacks. It's fun challenging ourselves with support from our teammates!

Curiosity: We stay curious. Kids love knowing why we do what we do--it supports them in developing good skills and habits in and out of the water. 

These values guide everything we do -- from how we train to how we build positive team relationships -- and helps swimmers develop life skills they'll carry with them far beyond the pool.
