Weekly Squad Swimming Sessions
Perhaps you've attended our popular Swimming Courses and are looking to keep up your new found stroke, or you're a newcomer to triathlon or regular solo swimmer looking for a great friendly regular group swim class to keep you motivated. You might be just getting back into swimming after a long break or an Age Grouper looking to improve your race times.
Whatever your level and experience, our friendly style and modern scientific coaching methods will make you swim more comfortably and efficiently with great technique. We help you swim much faster and learn to love not loathe swimming! We're not like other swimming clubs, we have positive vibes between all members and you'll feel welcomed from the outset!
Swim Squad
Wednesday & Friday mornings 6-7am at Abingdon School
Tune up your freestyle technique and get back into regular swim fitness training in a fun, friendly environment. You'll get lots of individual expert feedback on your stroke technique as well as the usual social squad banter! Suitable for triathletes and swimmers.
Each swimmer is given a suitable swimming volume for your ability so no-one ever feels like they can't keep up or they're not being challenged.
Technique & Fitness
Wednesday morning sessions primarily focus on improving your freestyle technique while helping you to improve your stroke efficiency and speed.
Friday mornings primarily focus on enhancing your threshold and endurance capacity for distance swimming, enabling you to swim faster for longer. This session is key to improving your race times.
Sessions run in term time only and are priced at:
£55 a month (£17.50/session) 1 session per week
£95 a month (£15.11/session) 2 sessions per week
We offer a FREE TASTER session to newcomers so you can see how it works and if it's for you before committing to a membership.
Lane 1 for Beginners
If you're new to our squad and feeling a little nervous or you're not swim fit (yet!) we welcome you to start in Lane 1 with other newcomers.
Here you can take things at your own pace with reduced swimming volume and more rest. Ali will give you individual stoke technique reminders to help you make rapid improvements.
Come along and give it a try!
What People Say
Claire
"I turned up to Tri Swim Coaching a complete swimming newbie. Although I could stay afloat in the water, I couldn't manage swimming more than 4 lengths without having to stop to catch my breath. This year I swam my first 10km event in open water.
Ali and Annie don't yell incomprehensible instructions from poolside. Instead, what you get is clear guidance and plenty of contagious enthusiasm. It was their passion for swimming and my improvements that spurred me on. Initially I booked 1-2-1 coaching sessions, but as I grew in confidence and ability, I joined their squads. If you are thinking "Are these guys any good? Do they know their stuff?" Absolutely. Get in touch and book a session. You will not regret it."
I signed up for the Tuesday evening session at Abingdon School just a couple of weeks before the Bleinheim Triathlon to try and get a few tips to help with the swim. I thought I’d left it far too late but PJ was amazing and helped me with breathing and technique. I managed to knock 90 seconds off my swim and an overall 6 1/2 minutes off all three disciplines due to the energy I saved on the swim. Thanks so much.
"Five star rating to the Team at Tri Swim Coaching without any hesitation!! I have been working with Ali & Annie since 2015 and have benefited from their expertise in all aspects of the sport of triathlon. The bespoke training plans developed for me together with the group squads have produced significant improvements in each of the three disciplines . I have seen my individual CSS pace improve from a start point of 1:50 / 100m at my first video analysis, to a peak of 1:33/100m during this year's race season. A great team!!!"
