Build Confidence for Open Water Swimming

Many triathletes find the swim the most intimidating part of an event. My coaching helps remove that fear by building confidence alongside technique. You'll learn essential open water skills including sighting, pacing, drafting, race starts, wetsuit preparation and how to stay calm in changing conditions. These are the skills that make the difference between simply completing the swim and enjoying it.

Experienced Coaching for Triathlon and Ironman

With more than 10 years of coaching experience, I have helped swimmers progress from their first lengths in the pool to completing sprint triathlons, Half Ironman races, Full Ironman events and long-distance open water swims. Every swimmer learns differently, so I adapt my coaching to suit your individual needs using demonstrations, drills, positive reinforcement and continuous feedback.

Join a Supportive Triathlon Swimming Community

Pool2lake also offers something many coaching programmes cannot - a genuinely welcoming community. You'll train alongside like-minded swimmers who encourage one another, celebrate successes and help keep motivation high throughout your training. Beginners are always welcome, and swimmers are grouped by ability so everyone feels comfortable and supported.
