OPEN WATER SWIM COACHING
James is a certified STA level 2 open water coach. He is a passionate open water swimmer.
James' open water coaching sessions take place on the south coast at Bracklesham Bay.
James also covers specific open water skills like sighting, dealing with colder water and how to cope when conditions that are not flat calm.
Don't worry ... you don't need to learn a new special way of swimming, just how to adapt your stroke to the conditions and remain relaxed.
To best understand your swimming you need to see yourself swimming and this is much more easily done in the pool than open water. So in winter months we work in the pool to hone our skills for the open water.
James also holds a British Canoe Union Foundation Safety and Rescue Training (FSRT) certificate.

"Hi James
I thought you might like to know how I got on at the SwimSerpentine on Saturday.
At my last triathlon in a pool I did 400m at 116 secs per 100, on Saturday the course was 1610m which with my time of 27:30 would make it 102.5 secs per 100m - which is mind blowing for me!!"
