Video Analysis
To truly understand your stroke technique, visual feedback is essential. Our coaches will use video analysis to capture your swimming movements and provide detailed feedback on areas that require improvement. By analyzing your strokes frame by frame, we can identify any flaws and work together to make the necessary adjustments.
In-Water Drills
Practice makes perfect, and in-water drills are a crucial part of stroke improvement. Our coaches will guide you through a series of drills designed to isolate specific aspects of each stroke. By focusing on these individual components and gradually integrating them into your full stroke, you will develop a stronger and more efficient technique.
Mental Preparation and Goal Setting
Swimming is not just a physical sport; mental fortitude plays a significant role in achieving success. In this session, we delve into the psychological aspect of swimming, helping you develop a strong mindset and set meaningful goals.
