What Is Online Technique Analysis?
Most swim racers are constantly looking for ways to increase their speed and decrease their times.
They may have had swim coaching and are now just practicing more and more to try to increase their speed. Practice only makes perfect if it is perfect practice. It is difficult to evaluate every second of your own stroke and performance.
What Can Be Analyzed?
Any slight misstep can throw off your stroke and your timing. It may be difficult for you to detect the problem yourself. It may even be hard for a swim coach watching you live to see, especially if it is a movement in a race. Our coaches will review the video, rewind it, replay it, and watch it in slow motion.

WHO CAN BENEFIT?
The best use of this analysis is to identify the problems in the stroke or technique of an existing competitive athlete. We can improve the speed of a racer, the grace of a dive, or the streamline of a racing swimmer.
Our swim coaches have years of experience with swimming and coaching. We can evaluate each part of your technique to help you move smoothly and gracefully in the water. It is not the best method for training a new swimmer, but we have an online course for virtual swimming lessons.
What Do I Need to Do?
Use a camera stand, or have a friend video you in a competition or simulate a race. A school race or competitive swim race organization video can be submitted.
In order to accurately access your technique problems, the video needs to be of a performance. Our coaches need to see you at your competition level. If you have already consulted a swim coach and have training techniques to address the problem, videotape those also. Once we have reviewed your video, we will film our own video reviewing your tape. The swim coach will explain what problems they saw and compliment you on the things you did well. We will then make suggestions for a remedy. If you would like the coach to take you on as a virtual student, let us know. That would allow us to continue working with you and follow your progress. If not, we would encourage you to submit another video for evaluation of your progress.
