Nike Peak Performance Winter Swim Camp Barbados

Maximizing swimming potential through a holistic training approach is the mission of Peak Performance Swim Camp. To fulfill our mission, we seek to empower our swimmers through a two-tiered process of teaching and training. The teaching side includes daily chalk talks, video presentations, and ongoing poolside demonstrations. In addition, a targeted teaching strategy focused on swimmers’ individual needs is employed.

2026 OVERVIEW

• Start-Stroke-Turn Camp: For competitive swimmers ages 9-18. Our 4-day Start, Stroke, and Turn Camp dedicates equal time to train fast starts, quick turns, and efficient strokes. It’s the complete package over one weekend!

Powerful starts and turns are crucial links in competitive racing that can cut vital seconds, and PEAK knows best how to boost your performance! As part of the stroke training, we utilize key elite techniques common to Olympians. Learn from the PEAK pros and get the winning edge!

Our Start training covers the front and back competitive starts, and improves reaction time, explosive power, and distance off the block. Our Turn progressions teach swimmers how to setup the turn, accelerate on the wall, and travel further off the wall. Our Stroke training focuses on body position, pulling, kicking, breathing and timing, as well as MDPS (Maximum Distance Per Stroke) and MSR (Maximum Stroke Rate).

Created by Olympic Coach Nick Baker, the camp’s curriculum is second to none. Coach Baker has authored ten books on swimming and produced four swimming videos. The camp offers many unique features and is highly recommended for competitive swimmers ages 8-18.

Note: This is NOT a learn-to-swim program, but specifically designed for competitive swimmers who can perform multiple lengths of all four strokes and the official starts and turns. Swimmers are assigned to lanes based on ability level. The daily skill progressions and challenging swim sets are adjusted to reflect skill and performance levels.
