Dan Meinholz heads A3 Performance, an aquatics company renowned for innovation. Dan has deep roots in swimming, starting competitively at the tender age of five. By his senior year in high school, he became a national record holder, a Junior National Champion, and earned a #1 ranking the 100 and 200 meter backstroke in his national age group. Dan swam at the University of Wisconsin on a full swimming scholarship where he met his wife Amy, a Big 10 Conference Champion. An injury cut Dan's career short, but his passion for the sport never waned. He continued to coach at the high school, club, and college level. By 1995, Amy and he founded All-American Aquatics.
