Multiple Paralympic medalist and outstanding clinician, double amputee, Jessica Long will be leading four sessions in Camas, WA with Olympic gold medalist Tyler McGill.

In Omaha, NE Olympic coach Todd Schmitz will be leading a coaching clinic.  This is FFT’s very first coaches clinic – a natural next step in Fitter and Faster’s already successful “Coaches Program” that is held at every clinic.  Todd will then drive to Carroll, Iowa where he will lead two sessions of clinics on Saturday and Sunday. On Saturday, 4-time American record holder Clark Smith will be leading three sessions of clinics in Omaha before the Midwestern LSC banquet on Sunday.

Fremont, OH is having a Michigan invasion! Three University of Michigan post grads will be leading clinics here this weekend: Ali Deloof, Emily Brunemann and Justin Glanda.

In Snohomish, WA Elite clinician and Olympic gold medalist Tyler Clary will be leading four sessions of clinics alongside the amazing Felicia Lee!
