In De Zwemclub neemt Mariëlle je deze winter mee het water in. Een podcast over buitenzwemmen, kou, dippen en de magie van vroeg opstaan en zwemmen in natuurwater. Elke maand duikt ze met haar trainers in een nieuw thema: van hoe je begint tot waarom koffie en taart na afloop minstens zo belangrijk zijn als de duik zelf. Voor iedereen die buiten zwemt of dipt, dit wil gaan doen en wat meer kennis wil opduiken of wat meer motivatie kan gebruiken. Bij De Zwemclub is iedereen welkom! Zwem of dip je met ons mee? Laat vooral van je horen als je ook mee zwemt. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/...

Instead, from age seven to sixteen, she accompanies her father to a dilapidated barn on the edge of a dusty little town located on the outskirts of San Francisco, where she works after school building a ship that is supposed to set her free.

In Surviving the Shark, Jonathan Kathrein describes his incredible shark attack experience. The book covers all aspects of Kathrein’s survival, beginning with the eerie moments just before the attack, when something smashes into Kathrein’s hand as he paddles on his board, waiting for a wave off Stinson Beach in northern California. Realizing it is probably shark, and possibly a great white, Kathrein tries to paddle away, furiously trying to make it toward shore, where he sees some of his friends on the beach.

"If you're not strong enough to swim fast, you're probably not strong enough to swim 'pretty," said a young Esther Williams to theater impresario Billy Rose. Since the nineteenth century, tensions between beauty and strength, aesthetics and athleticism have both impeded and propelled the careers of female swimmers—none more so than synchronized swimmers, for whom Williams is often considered godmother. In this riveting history—the first of its kind—Vicki Valosik traces a century of aquatic performance, from vaudeville and dime museums to the Olympic arena.
