Michael Phelps IM Program

The Michael Phelps Foundation and Special Olympics are dedicated to growing the sport of swimming and promoting healthy and active lifestyles. The foundation created the im program to give Special Olympics swimmers the very same instruction Michael Phelps was given when he was introduced to the water.

Get in touch with a sports director at your local Program if you are interested in attending an IM seminar. If you have additional questions, please reach out to the Michael Phelps Foundation’s Program Director at marissa@michaelphelpsfoundation.org
