Hey swimmers! I’m back in Perth after a fantastic week of coaching in Europe, although the weather here is pretty stormy right now. On the long flight home, I reflected on how Swim Smooth was founded in 2004, entirely built around 1-to-1 video analysis and stroke correction. I’ve been fortunate to work with thousands of swimmers and triathletes, refining this process over the years. Just last week in Montenegro, I shared with our swimmers how these sessions were born from my passion for coaching and biomechanics, as well as the practical need to make a living after moving to Australia in 2002.
Today, our video analysis service continues to deliver transformative results, from helping beginners like Fiona improve their catch to fine-tuning professional triathletes like Emma Pallant-Browne. We now have over 40 fully trained coaches around the world offering these sessions, which focus on identifying the key areas you need to improve—not overwhelming you with a list of errors.
In this episode, we’ll dive into the three most common things we see in video analysis sessions, how you can start improving your stroke right away, and why a personalized approach is crucial. Plus, I’ll share more about our upcoming Rottnest Channel Swim Program, designed to help you avoid injury as you ramp up your distances. Stay tuned!
