These hugely popular courses run for 1 hour per week in the evening, for 10 weeks, in and around the Loughborough area.
The fastest and most effective long term way to improve your swim speed is by improving your technique.
During this 10 week course places are limited to 16 participants and there will be three highly experienced coaches (Head Coach Mark Pearce will always be one) providing feedback and direction throughout the session.
Using a combination of swimming technical aids, drills and feedback we work to optimise your stroke to provide maximum speed for less effort, whatever distance you are racing over.
As well as learning what to do, the coaches are also encouraging you to understand why you need to do it. This helps to promote a strong learning effect and results in you retaining more of the information and technique.
We work through a curriculum that progresses through the elements of your stroke in a logical and integrated manner as shown in this animation.
Week by week we progress through the curriculum working on developing
- Control of breathing
- Body position in the water
- Core control
- Rotation
- Alignment
- Timing
- Propulsion.
We currently only run two of these annually.
