Seeing yourself swimming from a range of different angles and then having your stroke praised and constructively critiqued by Annie is a liberating experience.

She’ll identify the great elements of your stroke already there and the stroke faults which you need to work on, whether its holding your breath, arm crossovers, sinky legs, inefficient catch mechanics, overkicking or overgliding.  We use a high quality HD underwater camera to film you from a range of different angles above and below the water, in your own lane in a swimming pool, leaving no stone unturned!  

Video analysis is a superb way to identify key areas to improve your stroke efficiency and help you to see how you need to improve. You'll take home a recorded analysis to watch again and help it all sink in!

This will revolutionise the way you swim and seriously improve your swimming performance in just one expert session. 

If you're travelling quite a distance or are taking time off work, we recommend the 2 hour video analysis option.
