with Ann-Kathrin Koziol
Escape from everyday life and jump into the pool.
This Camp with Ann-Kathrin is all about learning crawl technique from the ground up – and loving every minute of it. We start with the basics, as this is often where you'll find the biggest potential to glide through the water more relaxed and efficiently. Whether you're starting from scratch or looking to refine your existing technique, you're in the right place.
We'll focus on crawl and backstroke technique, complemented by other swimming styles to boost your coordination and balance. It's not about perfection, but fostering curiosity and openness to build your confidence in the water. Key to this is the interplay of mind and body, and understanding and feeling the technique step by step.
We'll support you not just in the pool, but on land too: with targeted athletic training, mobility sessions, and valuable insights to boost your mental strength. You'll take home not just improved technique, but a holistic understanding of your sport.

Do you have your own coach? It's best to discuss with them in advance which sessions make sense for you and where you'll do your individual training.
-
guided swimming and technique training
The units consist of technique, drills, dry exercises and units with a special focus on breathing, arm stroke and leg kick.
-
Strength and athletic training
Very few people do it on their own at home, right? ;) Of course, mobility, athleticism, core stability, and pulling exercises are essential at camp.
-
Lectures and video analyses
The lectures revolve around swimming theory, crawl technique, but also the relevance of flexibility and stretching.
The pool videos are watched and discussed in small groups.
-
Optional bike rides
Perfect for active recovery. Organized without a guide. Book your rental bike in advance and just pick it up on-site.
-
reserved pool lanes
The lanes are divided according to skill level. This means you'll share your lane with a small group of campers and won't be disturbed by other pool users.
-
HHT contact person at your side
In addition to Ann-Kathrin as Head Coach, our HHT Guides and someone from the HHT Crew are always on site.

A TYPICAL
DAY
A typical day with us? It usually doesn't start directly in the water, but next to it. We believe in holistic Training, and that's reflected in our daily schedule.
Mornings often kick off with an activating mobility session. We specifically prepare your body for the movements waiting for you in the water. Then it's time for the first swim session in the pool. Sometimes we focus on pure freestyle technique, sometimes on water feel, sometimes on targeted drills. On two days, we also do a video analysis where you'll see yourself in action.
Afternoons are all about the details. Often on land, with dry-land exercises for core, stability, and arm stroke that will give you those crucial percentage points in the water. But most of the time, we're in the water for sessions focusing on water feel, arm and leg stroke, and breathing.
Evenings are dedicated to recovery and exchange. In the late afternoon, we meet for stretching and mobility sessions. After that, it's time to refuel, learn something new in a presentation, or wind down the day together over dinner.
Every day has a clear focus. Every stroke takes you further.

Fuerteventura
Fuerteventura zählt zu den besten Adressen für Triathlon-Trainingslager. Die „Insel des ewigen Sommers“ bietet ganzjährig stabile Wetterverhältnisse, milde Temperaturen und Trainingsbedingungen, die für alle Leistungsstufen funktionieren – vom motivierten Einsteiger bis zur erfahrenen Langdistanz-Athletin.
Das wellige Profil, der verlässliche Wind und die weitläufigen Straßen machen die Insel zum idealen Ort für intensive Radeinheiten, strukturiertes Lauftraining und effektives Schwimmen. Hier wird unter realen Bedingungen trainiert: klar, direkt und wirkungsvoll.
Was Fuerteventura besonders macht, ist die Community. Du teilst die Trainingsstrecken mit ambitionierten Agegroupern und Profis, findest Anschluss, Austausch und Motivation und wirst Teil einer Szene, in der Triathlon gelebt wird.
Ob Grundlagenphase, Technikfokus oder gezielter Formaufbau: Wer auf Fuerteventura trainiert, nutzt ein Umfeld, das fordert und fördert – Tag für Tag.
