The Menlo Mavericks is a non-traditional, non-competitive swim group that aims to create a swimming community that is extremely passionate about being in and around the water. Welcoming others and sharing that enthusiasm for water and swimming is a byproduct of the program. We will embark on this endeavor of creating passionate swimmers using two steps:

1. Fundamentals - For passionate swimmers to blossom, they must have sound and solid swimming technique fundamentals. The ease and joy of water activity is enhanced with efficient body movement patterns. We will not compromise this step ever from our Swim School, Jr. Menlo Mavericks, Menlo Mavericks, and the Summer Mavericks programs.
   
   
2. Diversity - Always offering a varied and changing menu of swim activities that challenges and engages the individual to progress, develop, and evolve as swimmers.  Speed, rankings, and times are not necessarily the driving motivator behind our philosophy.

We strive to develop self-esteem, cardio vascular fitness as well as strength, flexibility, and balance.  By offering all these items we hope to create a swimmer whose attendance consistency is high.

We believe that if the swimmer is having fun ... they will continue to come.
We believe that if the swimmer comes ... they will progress.
We believe that if the swimmer progresses ... they will increase their self-confidence.
We believe that if the swimmer's self-confidence is high ... they will become passionate swimmers.
We believe that if a swimmer is passionate ... they are a Maverick.
