Coaching
As a student growing up,
there are normally many opportunities to participate in sports with a coach to
guide you, and also to hold you accountable.
As adults with many responsibilities, most people find it easiest to
participate in individual sports such as triathlon, swimming or running. Some people are self motivated and knowledgeable
about what they need to do to perform their best. The rest of us need help, with a plan,
suggested workouts, and someone to help monitor their progress. I offer this
type of personal coaching for swimming and multisport athletes. Coaching packages are individualized and can
include any or all of the following:
--Swim sessions with video
taping and analysis, and stroke technique work
--A weekly workout plan for
swimming or for multisports
--Email and phone call
exchanges and updates as needed
--Race planning and strategy
Swim
Lessons
When
I go to lap swim at NAU or FAC, I want to spend all my time helping people
improve their technique. I see so many
folks working so hard and not really going anywhere fast. I am a firm believer that you can always make
improvements in your stroke efficiency, and thus make faster and easier
improvements in swim speed and/or endurance.
My lessons focus on improving stroke technique, and can also include
strokes other than freestyle, starts, and flip turns.I
I specialize in swimming training and technique improvement, as well as creating workout plans that help a swimmer or triathlete maximize their potential and reach their goals.
