Dryland and coach education for swim teams

The XERAswim method
The world’s best swimmers don’t get there by accident.
The most decorated young female swimmer in the world right now trained in this program, in Florida, before the world records, before the Olympic podium, before the gold medals.
Behind her success is one methodology, one director, and one relentless focus on building complete athletes: Chris Webb, XERAswim.

What coaches say
Results on deck, not on paper.

“XERAswim has absolutely been a difference maker for us. It’s allowed our program to find the same commitment to a structured approach in our dryland as we have in the water, and it’s only multiplied the impact our water system has for our athletes.”
Jeff Julian, Head Coach, Mission Viejo

“The University of Denver Hilltoppers were first introduced to this program in 2014. It has helped our program address the lapse in physical literacy in this generation of children. We are building healthier, more well-rounded athletes and promoting elite-level performance in swimming.”
Shawn Smith, Head Coach, University of Denver Hilltoppers
