Title: Past SPIRE Swim Ambassador

SPIRE has engaged Olympic champion, Ryan Lochte, to serve as International Swim Ambassador for the SPIRE Swim Academy and all SPIRE camp/club training and recreation aquatic programs and events. Ryan Lochte is well known as one of the most decorated Olympic athletes of all time. In addition to conducting clinics and engaging with the student athletes at SPIRE, and serving as its industry spokesperson, Lochte will work closely with the SPIRE team on a complete strategy for building/developing its long term athletic development approach to swim training for athletes of all ages and ability levels.

I’ve dedicated my life to the sport of swimming and have seen everything in terms of training programs and facilities, but SPIRE is special. The potential to build something totally unique at SPIRE from a training and development perspective intrigues me. I’m fortunate to be involved, and I look forward to helping SPIRE Swim make a major impact on our sport, both in and out of the pool!
