Open-water swim clinics?

Hey, all!

tl;dr - Does anyone know of any weekend or day-long clinics that teach open water or tri-specific swim skills?

I've done a couple of pool-based sprint tris, and obviously I am not satisfied with that. However, I have zero--and I mean zero--appreciable OWS skills. If I'm in a non-chlorinated body of water, I'm wearing scuba gear.

Does anyone know of any weekend or day-long clinics that teach open water or tri-specific swim skills? The tri guru at my LBS suggested a couple of "triathlon camps," but they turned out to be mostly about the bike with the option of pool swimming.

I like traveling for this stuff, so location is not a limitation. And I'm an ex-ex-ex-ex club swimmer, so (pool) stroke technique and endurance are fine (although the speed isn't quite there yet).

    Don't know if you are located on the West Coast, but one of the mentors in my BT forum group is Scott Kubinsky. He lives in So Cal and has a tri focused swimming site that lists his clinics and lessons. It is called "triathlonswimcoach.com". Hope that helps.
