Santa Barbara Masters is offering local adults the opportunity to try pool swimming with the group for free as part of U.S. Masters Swimming’s “Try Masters Swimming” initiative, July 1–31.
Interested adults are invited to join Santa Barbara Masters for its practices daily at 5:45 a.m.-7 a.m. and 6 p.m.-7:15 p.m. at the Los Banos Del Mar Pool located at 401 Shoreline Dr.
“Santa Barbara Masters is excited to welcome swimmers of ALL levels to come see what masters swimming and a coached workout is all about during July,” said head coach Mark Stori. “We foster an inclusive and welcoming environment to allow each swimmer to achieve their individual fitness goals.”
The mission of the nonprofit Santa Barbara Masters is to provide the community with year-round access to swimming instruction and training, and to promote health, wellness, fitness and competition for adults 18 and over.
The organization is a registered U.S. Masters Swimming Club and welcomes all levels of swimmers aged 18 and older to join the team. The masters swim program will help you reach your goals, whether you are new to swimming, an avid fitness or competitive swimmer, or multisport athlete.
SBMS offers an inspiring team atmosphere with organized workouts, competitions, clinics, and social functions. Highly qualified coaches on deck provide instruction to help swimmers of all skill levels and ages improve their technique and train for personal goals.
This is the sixth year of Try Masters Swimming, a nationwide initiative that has provided adults across the country the opportunity to swim.
