Team Venom

Team Venom ($36 per class) is the ultimate goal of a PRO Swim Academy student! Venom focuses on teamwork, fitness, and mastering the sport. It’s non-competitive with an in-water coach

If you’re new to PRO with a swim team caliber student who’s ready for one hour practices with an in-water coach who works directly with each swimmer for consistent improvement, you’re Team Venom. (All currently enrolled PRO students qualify for Team once they are proficient Platypus!)
