Widely regarded as one of the world’s best competitive swimming teachers, Steve Haufler of the Orinda Country Club Swim Sharks, near San Francisco, California, came to London on Oct. 21-22 to deliver a coaching clinic to the London Aquatic Club coaching staff. Steve led 16 of our coaches through five hours of class time and three hours in the pool, teaching skills to some of our youngest swimmers, and giving a talk to a group of LAC parents.
