TESTIMONIALS
Great swim coach! Enthusiastic, knowledgable and knows how to tailor the session to your needs. Within an hour Row had given me loads to work on and within a week of putting it into practice I'm well on the way to being a competent sea swimmer.
Jim
Thanks for a fantastic coaching session Row. I'm now working on all that you taught me and gradually building on it to do more front crawl.
It has been over 20 years since I did this much crawl and you've helped me feel confident to get this far and improve my breathing massively.
Clare
Amazing! I'd totally recommend Row - I needed help with front crawl & could only flap about for 10 mtrs & can now complete a mile! Row helped me so much in just one 1:1 coaching session and I'm totally enjoying my swimming so much more.
Kaz
Had my first open water coaching session at Clevedon Marine Lake with Row today. What a woman! Inspiring, positive, encouraging, informative and refreshingly ‘normal’ for want of a better word. Can’t wait for the next session.
