What Happens During a 1-to-1 Swim Analysis?

Many swimmers know they could be more efficient, but it is difficult to change a stroke when you cannot clearly see what is happening. A Swim Smooth 1-to-1 Video Analysis and Stroke Correction session turns guesswork into a clear, practical plan.

The session is suitable for every level—from adults learning freestyle to experienced pool swimmers, open-water swimmers and triathletes looking for greater efficiency, confidence or speed.

BEFORE WE START

We begin by discussing your swimming background, goals, current training and any injury or mobility considerations. This helps me understand what you want to improve and ensures the session is coached around you rather than forcing everyone through the same process.

VIDEO CAPTURE AND ANALYSIS

Your stroke is filmed in high definition from above and below the water. We look at the complete stroke, including breathing, body position, leg kick, hand entry, catch, pull-through, rotation and timing.

The aim is not to identify every possible fault. It is to find the one or two changes that will make the greatest difference to your swimming.

You will see your footage during the session and receive clear explanations without unnecessary technical language. A recorded voice-over analysis is also provided so you can revisit the feedback afterwards.

IN-WATER STROKE CORRECTION

Once the priorities are clear, we return to the water and begin making practical changes. Live radio-assisted coaching allows you to receive feedback while you are swimming, helping you connect what you have seen on video with what the improved movement should feel like.

The drills are selected for your stroke, swimming level and goals. If a piece of equipment or movement is unsuitable, the session is adjusted accordingly.

WHAT YOU TAKE AWAY

You leave with:

• Clear knowledge of what is holding your stroke back

• Individual priority corrections

• Practical drills matched to your needs

• A recorded analysis to revisit

• A take-home training plan for continued improvement

The complete session lasts 75 minutes and costs £140, including pool hire.

One focused analysis can save months of uncertain practice. Most importantly, you leave knowing exactly what to work on and why.
