Some of our swimmers have asked that I post our workouts, so they can get it online when they are not able to make it to our practice. I will do my best to keep this updated. Workouts are 90 minutes long with some "masters minutes" between sets...
Should you find yourself visiting the great city of New Orleans, please reach out and join our group for a workout or two while you are here. Our workouts will help burn some of the extra calories that you may indulge in while eating at our world class restaurants! During the short course season (Sept to April) we swim Monday - Friday evenings from 6:30 - 8:00 PM; Tuesday, Thursday & Friday mornings from 6:00 -7:30 AM; and Saturday from 10:00 AM - noon. Please reach out to Coach Aaron via email at: RiptideSwimmingNOLA@gmail.com. Practice updates are made on our Facebook page: Riptide Swimming NOLA.
