Swimpros Performance Swim Camps: The Complete Guide

I am David Karasek, an Olympic finalist and Swiss record holder, and the founder of Swimpros. Parents ask me the same handful of questions on repeat, so I put every answer in one place. Use the sections below to jump to what you actually need.

Start here: is Swimpros right for your swimmer?

Swimpros is built for competitive swimmers, roughly ages 8 to 20, who already train and race with a club and want a concentrated performance reset — not a casual swim vacation. If that's your swimmer, everything below will help you decide which camp and when. If you're not sure yet, start with how to choose a swim camp for a competitive swimmer and whether swim camps are worth it for junior swimmers.
