This looks good; how's the registration coming?
From the description of "Perpetual Motion Freestyle":
"In this hour-long clinic TI coaches will teach three key skills of 'Perpetual Motion Freestyle': (1) Cooperate with Gravity -- relax into weightlessness and stop struggling; (2) Take the Path of Least Resistance -- learn to use "active streamlining" techniques to reduce drag to swim farther, faster, easier; (3) Swim with your Body - Learn to use effortless weight shifts as your source of propulsive power."
I'm particularly fetched by no. 3. Dunno how it works, though.
Those who have looked into the cost of a TI clinic will appreciate the low cost of this program.
