Online swim coaching
and race video review.

A finish time tells you the result. Video can give you something more specific to discuss: where your rhythm changed, how you approached a turn, or what was different between the first and second half.

A race review starts with your event and the question you want answered. Depending on what is visible, the discussion might cover:

• Stroke rhythm and breathing through the swim
• Starts, breakouts, turns and the finish when the camera captures them clearly
• How your technique changes as the race develops
• A small number of priorities to explore in your regular practice

The goal is useful feedback you understand. A review cannot promise a particular time drop, and one camera angle cannot reveal every part of your stroke.

Race video review

Bring a specific race and a question. Before agreeing to a review, discuss the event, the footage available and the kind of feedback that would help. Possible formats include annotated observations, written priorities or a discussion of what to try next; the actual deliverable is agreed with you.

If you want to revisit a technique priority over time, ask about a tailored remote arrangement. Discuss your training access, existing team commitments and how you would put feedback into practice. The length of the arrangement, check-ins and feedback format are agreed individually.

Your regular coach’s priorities are useful context. Remote technique work can be discussed alongside your existing training, without assuming you need to replace it.

Describe the video you already have in your inquiry: the event, pool length, approximate camera position and whether the swimmer stays visible. You do not need to upload anything to ask about fit.

• A continuous view of the race helps preserve context. Say if the recording misses the start, a turn or the finish.
• If possible, keep the original video rather than only a heavily cropped or slow-motion edit.
• Above-water race video cannot reliably show every underwater detail. Additional footage may be worth discussing, depending on the question.
• Follow the pool or meet’s filming rules and get any required permission. Do not film in changing areas.

Keep videos and private video links out of the public inquiry form. Footage-sharing arrangements and consent are discussed separately. A parent or guardian must handle inquiries for a minor.

1. Describe your swimming. Share your event, general experience, goal and whether you want one race reviewed or ongoing feedback.
2. Check the fit. Discuss whether the available footage can support the question you want answered.
3. Agree the details. Confirm scope, delivery format, timing, price and footage-sharing arrangements before proceeding.

The inquiry does not charge a card, reserve a lesson or begin a coaching subscription.
