Do you ever find it hard to acknowledge just how far you’ve come with your swimming? Or do you find yourself sticking to the same lane, rather than challenging yourself to swim with faster swimmers? This week, we’re chatting about recognising our own progress, celebrating those improvements and finding the confidence to push ourselves out of our comfort zones. Sometimes we’re better than we give ourselves credit for!
🏊♀️ Big news! We’re now the proud owners of an endless pool! We’re SO excited about this next chapter for Coastal Swim Coaching, with our new hub aiming to be up and running by mid-November. We’ll be sharing more about what’s to come, including opportunities to work on your technique, have your stroke analysed and take your swimming to the next level.
💦 Drill of the Moment: This week it’s the Gorilla Drill! A brilliant drill to help improve your front crawl technique and reduce that snaking movement through the water, helping you develop a straighter, more controlled stroke.
🩵 Tell It to the Sea: We’re sharing more stories from our swimming adventures, including bouncy saunas and some absolutely beautiful swim spots. Because, as always, there’s so much more to swimming than just the swimming!
So, whether you’re working on your technique, building confidence or wondering if you’re ready to take on that faster lane, come and join us for another chat full of swimming, laughs and a little Coastal Swim Coaching magic.
Remember, progress isn’t always about swimming faster or further. Sometimes it’s about recognising how far you’ve already come. 🌊

In this episode, we chat about the exciting plans for an endless pool coming to Hele Business Park and how it could transform swim coaching opportunities throughout the year.
As we head into the colder months, we discuss the importance of setting realistic winter goals, whether that's improving your front crawl, building confidence in the sea, increasing fitness, or simply staying consistent when the temperatures drop.
Our Drill of the Moment is a simple but effective kicking drill: swimming with your goggles tucked around your ankles. It might sound strange, but it's a brilliant way to encourage a stronger, more efficient kick and better body position in the water.
We also share some wonderful, heartfelt and emotional Tell It to the Sea moment reminding us why the sea means so much.
This episode is dedicated to Marley, Allie's beloved dog, who sadly passed away two weeks ago. Marley was a huge part of our lives and our Coastal Swim Coaching family, and we're sending this episode out with love in his memory.

S3 E24 Preparing for Winter & Celebrating Success
This week on the podcast, we're having a good catch-up and sharing what we've both been up to recently, including something quite rare for us—a welcome weekend off!
With the seasons beginning to change, we discuss how to prepare for winter swimming, from managing expectations and maintaining consistency to acclimatisation, kit choices and making the transition into colder water as enjoyable as possible.
Our Drill of the Moment is bilateral breathing. We chat about the benefits it can bring to your swimming, from improving balance and symmetry in your stroke to helping you adapt more easily to changing conditions in open water.
We also give a huge shout-out to our amazing Hurley Burley swimmers, who absolutely smashed their 10k swim at the weekend. We couldn't be prouder of their determination, commitment and achievement.
And, of course, we finish with our Tell It To The Sea moments, including the simple pleasure of swimming together and the joy of welcoming back a swimmer who has been away from the water for nine months. Some returns are every bit as special as the big achievements.
So grab a cuppa and join us for another chat about swimming, community, challenges and everything we love about life in and around the water.
