 8 |  Subject: Need a Swimming Trainer/CoachHave done a few Sprint Tri's and still need help with my swimming. Accustomed to TI swimming but my kick drags me (runners kick). Looking for someone to help me with my technique/endurance and anxiety. From Webster, MA(near Worcester, MA)
Any suggestions appreciated. |

Member 111 | Subject: RE: Need a Swimming Trainer/Coach Hmmm... me too! I'm from Hudson, Ma and basically taught myself to swim thru you tube videos, library books (total immersion) and self talk...("be long, breathe, move your arms w/purpose..etc) I have low budget with higher ambition, don't really have funds for a "coach" but need/looking for support as well. |

Member 111 | Subject: RE: Need a Swimming Trainer/Coach Great affordable suggestion! I'll do it, I see a couple of groups at the pool where I swim. I just haven't wanted to interfere w/ workout times being tight often before work etc.. I'll speak up and see if anybody's willing. Thanks |

Member 70 | Subject: RE: Need a Swimming Trainer/Coach I've hired Katherine Schwab (bigdreamsfitness.com) for a couple TI coaching sessions in the past, and found her to be pretty good. Rates are like $65/hr - so it's something that can be done every few months. She'll write down what things need work, then you go work on them for a few months, and when you reach a plateau, sign up for another session. |
