Open Water Sport Coaching

Prepare for open-water beyond the pool

Swimming can be the foundation for so much more than swimming laps. Whether you want to feel confident snorkeling on your next vacation, improve your swimming for surfing, become more capable on a paddleboard, or prepare for scuba or freediving, your lessons can be tailored around where you want your swimming to take you.

We’ll identify the skills that matter most for your goal and build them into your training. For some, that may mean developing a stronger and more efficient front crawl for surfing or long days in the water. For others, it may mean learning how to conserve energy, tread water, manage your breathing, or stay calm when conditions become less predictable.

Training built around your adventure

Surfing — Develop a stronger, more efficient front crawl and learn techniques for conserving energy and staying comfortable in the water between waves.

Scuba diving — Improve finning technique, buoyancy awareness, breathing control, and efficient movement so you can feel more relaxed and capable underwater.

Freediving — Develop breath control, relaxation, and CO₂ tolerance while learning to becoming more efficient with your stroke underwater.

Snorkeling & open-water swimming — Build confidence in deeper water, improve endurance and breathing, and learn practical skills for managing yourself comfortably in an open-water environment.

Paddleboarding, kayaking & other water adventures — Develop the swimming ability and water-confidence needed to feel more comfortable around the water, including essential skills for recovering from an unexpected fall or separation from your equipment.

Whatever you're preparing for, your training will be adapted to your goals, experience, and comfort in the water.

Outdoor open water sessions run during the summer months and are subject to local weather and availability. But you don’t have to wait for summer to start! My off-season pool coaching helps you master techniques and build stamina so that you are prepared for open water sports all year long.
