South West Swim

Always a great session with learning points to improve my swimming

Big thanks to Jason for taking my 11 year old through an intro to Open water. She thoroughly enjoyed your session and can’t wait to start building in her confidence you gave her.

First pool session with Jason at South West Swim and I loved it. A great mix of technique and swimming to drive home the drills. Everything clearly explained (essential at that time of day).
I guess I’ll be coming back for more then!

Best swim coach in the south west, possibly the U.K.

Excellent open water swim session with Jason today. I was looking for a review of my technique and identification of areas to make my swimming more efficient.

Within 10 minutes in the water Jason had given me a change to make to my kicking (with a drill to establish how it should feel). There was an immediate improvement in how my swim felt - far more efficient and satisfying.

We moved on to head position, reach and rotation. These all made a difference and will require more work over the medium term to establish and benefit further.

I’d highly recommend Swimming Smooth and Jason's tuition.

Wow! What a great session. An Olympic challenge wher you attempt to swim as many of the Olympic event distances in 55 minutes. The added twist was the 1500m and 800 sets (I only managed the 1500m one) at your CSS pace.  It’s a session where you have to knuckle down, grit your teeth and crack on.  I definitely earned my breakfast today!

Loved the session, really hard work but good fun and am looking forward to next year's session.

Had a 1:1 session with Jason today in the lake.  Jason examined my stroke and identified some errors.  He also pointed out what I was doing right which was encouraging! Jason then gave me some pointers to help improve my stroke and these worked really well.  He has given me great feedback and some drills to practise on my own.  I enjoyed the session very much.  Jason was friendly and clear in his instruction.  I would highly recommend South West Swim coaching.

My first time swimming in open water.  Jason was very patient and explained everything very clearly. He was encouraging and supportive. It was very good. Thank you.

I had a great lesson. First time in the lake and Jason was amazing showing me what to do from the second of getting the wetsuit on. He swum next me showing me the best way to swim outdoors. He really is so professional and a great teacher I learnt so much and gained so much confidence. His calming approach and knowledge was amazing. Ready to take my plunge solo. My next lesson from Jason will be stroke and getting faster in the lake. Thank you for a great day.
