Winter is starting, the summer 2026 season is wrapping up in the next few weeks, and dreams are becoming goals and plans for the future are getting exciting!

Why not book a call with me, or a 6/12/rolling training plan to either review the season you've had, plan your next big swim, or keep you on track for whatever is in mind

Fill out this questionairre with your swim details, and I'll be in touch to arrange a follow up consultation call before scheduling the Power Hour Call, training plan, or other

To ensure quality I only have a limited number of slots available for ongoing training plans, 11 spots remaining!

Taking on feedback that this week was the first 'full' week back to school and thus a lil chaotic- I've amended the front crawl stroke improvement course to be 3 weeks this September - £75 for 3 x 1 hour lessons progressively improving your front crawl.

Sharing the pool I have 2 other lanes as a dedicated Teen Swim Lane offering space for teens to continue to swim and keep their love for the water alive. The Oratory Prep school pool has the space for separate changing rooms, enabling both adults and under 18's to change safely, so this is the perfect space if your teen is 'done' with swimming lessons but would like to swim for fitness, come along, with a teacher on poolside to give advice, and a swim set to follow.

Post your hand like a letterbox to ensure smooth water and better traction for the catch.

This is a snippet from my Dry front crawl swimming workshop at
helping participants think about their strokes so they can put it into practice next time they are at the pool.

(I prefer teaching and coaching with a pool, but any opportunities to share swim knowledge I'm game!)

FREE Joyful Swim Coaching sessions at Bunkfest on Saturday 5th September in the Wallingford wellbeing area

11am - Water Safety talk - Helping people think about how to be safe when choosing to swim in the water, but also what to do if you end up in the water more accidently.

11:20 DRY FRONT CRAWL LESSON - There's lots of change you can make to your stroke in your mind - from understanding the impactful shape of your arms to the timing of it. It's designed to help you understand the mechanics of front crawl more, so the next time you go into a pool you can put them into practice (or I can help with that too another time)

PLUS

12:30 - FREE GUIDED River Swim (at Wallingford Beach area)
Join me for a guided river swim, from the Wallingford Beach, a designated bathing space.*

*As with all Joyful Swim Coaching sessions, a risk assessment and water environment / quality review will be done prior to the swim and if not sufficient then an alternative will be offered
