JAMES EWART
Total Immersion Swim Coach
Efficient Freestyle and Video Analysis
I am a technique-focused swim coach and Efficient Freestyle and Video Analysis specialist. If you are interested in swimming distances of 400m and beyond, then you should get in touch. I am passionate about helping swimmers achieve their goals. I spent eight years as a Total Immersion level 3 swim coach before moving on to focus on ideas formulated through my own further research into swimming technique, physiology and biomechanics. I'll always be thankful to Total Immersion and my mentors there for being the initial spark into me asking the simple question "Why?" more often.
People often over complicate swimming: It's technical but it doesn't have to be unfathomably detailed. Get the fundamentals right and a lot of the details naturally fall into place. I like to keep things simple and encourage you to get yourself balanced and streamlined right before worrying about small details. As Coach Bill Boomer put it "The shape of the vessel mattes more than the size of the engine"
My video analysis skills are are invaluable for helping you understand your stroke and become a smarter, more efficient swimmer and take the guesswork out of your swimming.
I am also a specialist in the prevention of shoulder injuries in swimmers making sure they are letting their shoulders go through a safe range of movement.
I coach at 25m pools in Chichester, West Sussex, Petersfield, Hampshire and occasionally in London Bridge.
I am also a guest coach for SwimQuest swimming holidays coaching swim camps at Club La Santa, Lanzarote and Formentera.
I am fully insured for both open water and pool coaching and have hold NRASTC, RYA Powerboat 2, BCU Foundation Safety and Rescue Training (FSRT) and enhanced DBS certificates. I am also a certified STA level 2 Open Water Swim Coach.

"James is fantastic, he applies the principles of TI, but it feels unique to you and the challenges you face with your stroke. Most of all, what he says makes sense, and he makes it easy to apply, to take away and carry on practising. My biggest takeout from his sessions is that I now get how swimming should feel, and that’s after being a competitive swimmer for over 30 years!"
