TOTAL IMMERSION TECHNIQUE WEEK WITH SWIMQUEST 
https://swimquest.uk.com/james-ewart/
​2022
October 8 - 12
Join Total Immersion coach James Ewart and the SwimQuest team for a fantastic week of swimming around the stunning Balearic island of Formentera. This break will include a combination of technique sessions led by James, and exploratory swims led by the SwimQuest team.
This technique tour is suitable for all ability levels abut ideally you need to be able to swim 200m reasonably comfortably. Because of our small group sizes (max 12), we can ensure that every indivdual receives one-to-one advice and stroke analysis, as well as the opportunity to complete some stunning open water coastal swims. With a combination of video analysis sessions, pool sessions, seminars and open water coastal swims, this is a varied trip resulting in new open water confidence and front crawl skills to take home. This tour takes place in October, so that you can return home with a wealth of knowledge and skills to practice over the winter months.
IS THIS WEEK FOR ME?
ABOUT FORMENTERA
Formentera is a small Balearic island just off Ibiza.  It is well known for its dazzlingly crystal clear waters and long stretches of beach, backed by dunes and pine trees. The island has escaped Ibiza-style development, and is a tranquil place with a laid-back atmosphere. John Coningham-Rolls has a long-standing history with Formentera: his grandparents owned a villa (Can Rolls) in the 50s, and since then John, and now SwimQuest, have maintained a relationship with the island. Formentera has a magnetic pull for so many of our guests, who return year after year for the ice white sand and and turquoise blue sea. The clarity of the water in Formentera is largely due to the Posidonia sea grass that grows on the sea floor.  These under-sea meadows were one of the main reasons Formentera and Ibiza achieved UNESCO World Heritage status in 1999. Playa des Illetes, a popular swim spot on our trips, also won Trip Advisor’s ‘Best Beach in Europe’ award.

"Good location and venue - hotel, beach, sea all ideal for this kind of trip. Technique training - James and Ant were very dedicated and managed to cater to quite a mixed group (which ranged from novices to seasoned sea swimmers). They provided a good insight into the 'Total Immersion' approach to freestyle and gave me plenty of new insights into technique and swimming efficiency. Hospitality & service - John and Jo from SwimQuest were great hosts for the week from beginning to end Friendly group of people - made some new friends and enjoyed some nice evenings out, always a good way to round out a day in the water!"
