Studio Workshops

I am able to offer the swimming technique improvement program made famous by the Total Immersion Weekend Workshops in a single visit and on a day of your choosing! This is only possible because of the accelerated learning that takes place in my Endless Pool here at SwimShack. Studio Workshops are most often taken on a one-to-one basis and if you prefer private instruction that is the way to go. Should you want to take a workshop with your training buddy, friend, colleague or partner that works extremely well too. It is obviously necessary for both of you to be of a similar standard, so that should be a consideration before you book in as a pair; it should also be noted that you will not be able to cover as much ground with the learning being split

‘Fishlike Freestyle’: If you can already swim, but are not happy with your swimming technique, if you tire too easily or can’t swim as far as you’d like, this 5-hour workshop will significantly help in turning you into a smooth, efficient free styler in a single day. You’ll learn balance, streamlined positions, effortless core-based propulsion and effective swimming movements, as I teach you the sequence featured on the Total Immersion 'Freestyle Made Easy' DVD and books, along with other core-skills. This workshop is likely to be chosen by triathletes or those wishing to “tri” for the first time, as well as fitness and competitive swimmers of all ages. Please note this is not a learn-to-swim workshop and your overall progress will be determined by your existing skill level

‘Different Strokes’: Learn to swim the way elite swimmers do in Backstroke, Breaststroke or Butterfly. Develop a solid foundation of swimming efficiency and economy and become a “complete” swimmer. The emphasis is on correct technique more than on speed. This 5-hour workshop is best for competitive swimmers and those who have already completed a TI Freestyle Workshop or a SwimShack Freestyle workshop/package

'Advanced' One-Day Studio Workshops

'SwimShack Alumni Top-up': This 4 1/2 hour workshop is for people who have already completed either a one-day Studio Workshop or a full eight-hour package of lessons. It is intended to build on all of the skills and drills covered on your previous visit(s) and to develop you further at a pace that exactly matches your current ability level

‘TI Finishing School’: This 3-hour workshop is for those who have already learnt Total Immersion freestyle swimming techniques (either at SwimShack or a Total Immersion weekend) and is designed to hone and lock in the drill progression and to develop your swimming technique. There will be a strong focus on incorporating a seamless breath into your swimming and mastery of the foundational skills that allow that to happen

‘High-Performance Swimming’: This 3-hour workshop is for those of you who have gone through the complete ‘Fishlike Freestyle’ and ‘Finishing School’ process, who now want to learn how to swim even faster. Here’s what’s included: (1) Total mastery of the more advanced drills and the addition of advanced techniques. (2) Instruction on taking a seamless breath while making a solid “catch.” (3) How to connect your swimming to the power of core-body rotation. (4) I’ll show you how to put it all together at racing speeds. The ability to set exact current speeds in the Endless Pool allows me to teach you the high-level coordination and control that’s the real basis of swimming fast efficiently
