We offer private flume pool swim analysis sessions for all abilities. Time spent in the flume is all about your technique and how we can improve this through informative and detailed feedback. This is done through videoing your swimming via two over water and one under water camera. This is then played back to you, so you get instant feedback. We then work through the pertinent points and work through drills and pointers to improve your technique and therefore your swimming.

We strongly believe that technique is key to swimming, whatever level you’re at. “Swim slow to get fast” is a philosophy that we strongly believe in as it allows you to concentrate on your technique whilst swimming. The time in the flume will bring this to fruition. Flume pool sessions are available on a one to one basis, but we also offer this opportunity out to groups of swimmers (clubs or just a group of friends) where we can block book out the pool for you.
