SURGE Strength is now offering an in-person Dryland Seminar. Don’t miss your opportunity to raise your standard of dryland training!
SURGE Strength is the leader when it comes to dryland training for swimmers. We’ve been providing online, customized dryland programs for over a decade. More recently we’ve created the first strength & conditioning certification specific to dryland training.
Now we’re combining these offerings into a half-day Dryland Seminar. You’ll learn the foundational principles required for a successful dryland training program. A Dryland Certified Coach will individually take you through SURGE Strength’s Movement Assessments and Performance Tests. This is the same process an athlete starting with SURGE Strength goes through when beginning an online SURGE Strength Dryland Program.
In addition, you’ll learn the basic progressions and regressions of the foundational dryland movements and exercises that should be in your program. You’ll also receive an individually customized function and mobility routine, with minimal equipment requirements, to do on a regular basis at home. We’ll be sure to teach you all of the techniques and pointers of each movement before you leave too!
Saturday, April 8th
8am – 1pm
Charlotte, NC
*Facility address available post registration
SURGE Strength’s Dryland Seminars are limited in attendance to ensure individual attention and that all attendees get the most out of their experience. If you’re interested please don’t delay as seats are very limited and we don’t offer these opportunities regularly.
Dryland Seminar FAQs
Who can attend?
Whether you’re a swimmer or swim coach we have an option and track for you!

And there’s even an upgrade option to receive 4 weeks of a customized SURGE Strength Dryland Program, after the Dryland Seminar, at a discounted rate to help you build on what you already learned.
