We will start our open water training on May 16, 2024 and swim into the summer on eight Thursdays in Lake Zurich near Horgen. We swim together with head coach Michael “Micky” Tronczik and other coaches. This training is suitable for beginners as well as for advanced learners, as we are in performance groups.

Our Open Water Training is a permanent institution on the left bank of the lake. We meet a stone’s throw away from our shop, right next to Horgen train station, next to the Parkbad Seerose (PP at the train station or directly on Seegartenstrasse).

Benefit from this training in groups of tips and tricks on the topics: swimming with wetsuit, orientation in the lake, swimming of buoys, mass start, preparations for the start and for the change.

Michael “Micky” Tronczik, one of the most experienced and well-known triathlon swimcoaches, goes into the water with you. No coaching from the beach or jetty, but in the middle of you. On each appointment, an athlete from the triathlon or swimming scene will also coach you swimming in the water. Dates on Thursdays:
