Second time I’ve visited Jason for assessment and advice to tweak my technique. Use of technology combined with knowledge and detail plans to make improvements makes these sessions stand out. I’ll be booking my third assessment in a few months.
A good mix of drills this morning - which will be helpful as the distances in the open water increase. A great set!
What a brilliant session! So encouraging and exactly what I needed as I prepare for open water swim in Canary Wharf in July. Jason taught me techniques for entering the cold water using my breathing. He also gave me teaching tips on my breathing and sighting too. Feel so encouraged. I now have to practice before my next lesson with Jason! Thank you for your time.
Thank you so much Jason you are very skilled and experienced and I really would recommend anyone who is considering having a lesson with Jason to book it.
Thank you

Absolutely amazing 1-2-1 coaching in the lake today with Jason, my stroke has always let me down in the lake with getting too out of breath, so played about with stroke rate until I hit the perfect stroke and I finally felt more comfortable and gliding through the lake without getting too tired.Also going through sighting which is another thing I really needed to improve.
I gained so so much knowledge and understanding with the guidance and help from the brilliant Coach Jason.
My least favourite type of session …I struggled to hold the threshold pace so then I try to focus on technique rather than flailing ever more ineffectually. In recent Sunday threshold sessions I’ve not used the tempo trainer and think I’ve pushed myself better and enjoyed it more without worrying about the beep 😆
This was a very useful course, although I have been swimming open water on and off for 20 years I’ve never had any instruction on how I should approach certain aspects of open water swimming. Always got in, started swimming and hope to swim from one buoy to the next with sighting when I thought I should and hope to stay in a straight line.
This course taught you a proper method/pattern of sighting, how to approach and turn around buoys and drafting techniques. I would recommend this course to anyone wanting to improve in the lake or sea.
Great session at lake 86 today despite the wet and windy weather. Lots of useful tips and opportunities to practice. Thank you!
Fantastic open water 1:1 session with Jason who gave so much really useful and helpful feedback. Session was really well paced with plenty of time to practice adn ask questions - but also covered many aspects of open water swimming and stroke technique in just one hour. As an absolute novice (and quite nervous) I came away feeling more confident and with plenty of things to focus on thanks to Jason's patient and structured approach. Highly recommend to anyone! Thank you for a
Excellent as always! Power hour goes super quickly
Great session
