Testimonials
Dara Torres (5-times Olympian, multiple Olympic medalist): “Having Genadijus work with me throughout my comeback helped so much! Everyone kept telling me how perfect my stroke was, but underwater there were specific things that needed to be fixed. No one could see that until Genadijus tested me. The fact that Genadijus took the time to work on even the smallest of things helped me be the best I could be, and reach my goals, and for that I am extremely grateful.”
Jason Lezak (3-times Olympian, multiple Olympic medalist): “Throughout my many years of working with Genadijus he has helped me in many ways. The lactate testing and analysis both at meets and practice taught me how to maximize my training and performance. Also the underwater video analysis with the velocity curve showed me how I could improve my stroke through the weaker points where my velocity significantly dropped.”
Jessica Hardy (Olympic Gold Medalist, World Record Holder): “Working with Genadijus was a short session, but more effective than I ever could’ve dreamt of. I appreciate his unique approach to implementing change in technique through outside-the-box drills. They have kept me engaged as well as open to change.”
Peter Vanderkaay (2-times Olympic Gold Medalist): “Dr. Sokolovas always uses cutting edge technology that is extremely beneficial in stroke refinement and training philosophy. I have worked with Dr. Sokolovas for many years now and I can honestly say that he has helped me reach my potential in the pool. I would highly recommend working with him if you want to be one of the best swimmers in the world.”

Hi, I was wondering if there is a minimum age that swimmers are required to be to make them eligible for the camp. Is it also a requirement to be a United States resident. We are Australian and are looking for a camp for my daughter to attend.
Dr. G is the best. Keen knowledge, great sense of humor and very genuine. Highly recommend as this is an awesome opportunity for all swimmers.
