    The coach

    How the coach helps you improve

    Four steps from your description to your next session.

    01

    You describe your swim

    Share your stroke, level and what feels wrong, in your own words.

    02

    It looks for the root cause

    Technique problems are linked, so it tries to find the one underneath.

    03

    You get fixes and drills

    Clear actions for your next session, tailored to your level.

    04

    Try it, then ask again

    Come back with what you noticed and keep refining.

    Good to know: suggestions are generated automatically from your written description. The coach cannot watch video of you swimming, so treat it as a source of ideas and drills, not a replacement for an in-person coach. If you feel pain, stop and speak to a professional.

          Small changes that help in every stroke.

          01

          Exhale underwater

          Breathe out steadily so you only need to inhale when you turn to breathe.

          02

          Stay long

          Reach forward and keep a streamlined body line to cut drag.

          03

          Keep your head neutral

          Look down, not forward, to keep your hips near the surface.

          04

          Drill, then swim

          Isolate one skill with a drill before adding it to full swimming.
