Twelve swimmers, two coaches and a lot of coffee afterwards. Everyone left with video of their own stroke and something specific to work on.
For our launch we teamed up with Hard and Smart Coaching for a coached freestyle session at Oasis pool in Covent Garden. It was a brilliant morning. Good swimming, a fair bit of laughing, and enough coffee afterwards that nobody really wanted to leave.
We spent the whole morning on the two things that make the biggest difference to most freestyle swimmers, then filmed everyone in the water so they could see it for themselves.
Every swimmer rated it five out of five and every one of them said they would come back.

Freestyle technique with Charlotte and Greg. Small groups by pace, focused drills, eyes on every stroke.
We filmed everyone in the water, so each swimmer left with footage on their phone to upload to Tumbl.
We headed to a nearby cafe with the group to chat swimming. The bit everyone said they loved most.
Run in collaboration with Hard and Smart Coaching. Charlotte coaches with Tumbl. Greg Divall is a triathlon coach and two-time GB Age Group world silver medallist.
“It was amazing to come away from a session with clear things to work on. The coaching was brilliant: very clear instructions, and I loved that they targeted different parts of the catch and pull. I really, really loved speaking to people who also love swimming. It feels like a really nice community could be built through sessions like today.”
“Fantastic coaching. Love the expertise and the good mood Charlotte brings.”
“Meeting new people and learning useful hints about my technique.”
“As a coach it was great to see other coaches doing something they're clearly passionate about. Well planned, well delivered, with just enough to take home without feeling overloaded.”
“Really good vibes from everyone.”
