[MySwim] has really helped me focus on technique and form to improve my racing ability. The workouts [the MySwim team]

creates for me emphasize stroke drills, distance per stroke, lots of kicking and ways to control breathing and they are always

interesting. Their workouts also consider my age (60+) and the demands on my body. Its great to have a support system that

helps me maintain focus and structure. [The MySwim] videos and posts keep me engaged. I look forward to a great swim season!

[MySwim] is simply awesome. I decided to learn how to swim as an adult and although I had attended a few group lessons at my community college, I still felt very unsure about swimming. After my first session with Coach Chris, I knew that I struck gold with

this coach. He really knows his stuff and has helped me tremendously in overcoming my fear of being in deep water and helping me improve my technique. It helps that he is incredibly nice and motivates you to be your very best. I would definitely

recommend him.

…I can say that having a coach who knows the science of the sport and who can provide instant feedback to help you improve is

invaluable and worth the cost. It is efficient and eliminates the time you would unknowingly spend on bad habits and bad form and instead lets you use that time to improve your weak areas

and increase performance. Definitely recommend!

I have hired [MySwim] to help me refine my freestyle stroke to get ready to pass a time limit 500 yard swim test for my T1 technical

scuba diving class with GUE that's about to happen close to end of 2016. After 2 sessions, my strokes are way more efficient & my

platform is beginning to improve. Coach Chris [of MySwim] is easy going & it has been a pleasure to work with him. I highly

recommend him to be your swim coach.
