An early morning swim and chat with some wildlife views, from the ever lovely The Swan at Streatley, Coppa Club

Stunning morning to wake up supporting the GAP Festival

Regular guided wild swims, coached open water swims, and pool swim sessions facilitating ways to help everyone enjoy the water more

This week both the Fitness squad I run and the Tri club I work alongside really slowed down our speed and added a not unreasonable amount of floats to isolate each arm and concentrate on how they work individually and together for propulsion and momentum.

Normally one arm is weaker than the other, but also your core, plus breathing & rotation proficiency can be different on each side.

I love slowing down the sessions, reeling in the distance and working on technique points which makes the distance feel easier when you return to it

I'm absolutely heartbroken by the recent news of tragedies in open water and want to help people explore the water safely and educate about risks and mitigations.

I have an availabile slot on Sunday morning 31st May 9-10am at and I'm happy to offer this at a reduced rate of £10pp, for a coached intro to open water/wild swimming for any teens who are interested.

It'll look at some safety skills, explain some lot, go swimming to experience it. go through some scenarios for role play, and discuss anything they want to.

If interest in future dates, wild swim sessions in the river in Wallingford/Goring, water safety talks and assemblies, let me know.

A supportive and encouraging 1 hour session for those who want some guidance on sighting, drafting, deep water starts or just a confidence boost prior to their first event.

(Absolutely designed for those who thought they'd be absolutely fine but are now freaking out slightly about or another very soon triathlon/swim event).

Follow me, for fun and effective teaching and coaching helping everyone enjoy the water more. I draw on over 15 years of swim teaching experience, 20 years of personal open water swim experience, 5 years open water coaching and I am one of the swim coaches for a local triathlon club. I just love the water and want to help everyone enjoy it safely too
