South West Swim’s Individual Coaching Services
Swim Smooth Certified Video Analysis Sessions
The gold standard in terms of video analysis. Swim Smooth are renowned worldwide for their in depth video analysis services and methods of coaching a swimmer as an Individual to get the very best out of their swim stroke. No two swimmers swim the same way, so we don’t believe every swimmer should be coached the same way. We offer this service in our own Private Endless Pool in NOrth Swindon.
1-to-1 Endless Pool Sessions
Our 1-to-1 Endless Pool session offers a technical stroke sessions without the in-depth analysis. Ideal for those that want individual coaching input without the cost of Video analysis, as a follow up session to a video analysis or as a regular supporting session to compliment a swimmers own ongoing training.
Our Endless Pool 1-to-1 sessions are available as a 60 minute session, with brief filming of your stroke to show you what is going on (note, this footage is not analysed in depth or screen recorded. for this book a full video analysis)
1-to-1 Highworth 25m Pool Sessions
Our 25m pool 1-to-1 sessions are 50 minutes long. These session are an ideal addition to our services as we can work on technique or offer guidance on CSS testing, Stroke rate testing, turns etc. This session type is ideal for those that want individual coaching input but want to do swim in a traditional pool , or those that wish to have some individual testing done in private, such as a CSS test or Stroke Rate Ramp test. A normal pool layout will also allow us to work on developing skills such as streamlining and tumble turns.

How an Endless Pool works
Our Endless Pool facility - The pool
Our Endless Pool is a state-of-the-art indoor training environment designed specifically for focused, technique-based swim coaching. Think of it as a treadmill for swimmers – a compact pool with a high-powered counter-current motor that holds you in place while you swim. This setup allows for uninterrupted swimming and detailed, real-time stroke analysis.
The pool features a fully adjustable current, with speeds ranging up to 1:08 per 100m, making it suitable for swimmers of all levels – from beginners to experienced triathletes. We maintain the water at a comfortable 29°C, ideal for technical work without causing fatigue from overheating.
Housed in a custom-built, heated cabin, our Endless Pool creates a calm and private space for learning and improvement. As a coaching environment, it’s second to none. It allows head coach Jason Tait to closely observe your stroke from multiple angles, helping to identify and correct even the smallest inefficiencies in your technique.
To further enhance your session, we may also use additional tools such as coach-to-swimmer headsets for real-time feedback and Swim Smooth Guru stroke capture technology for detailed analysis when needed.
Our Endless Pool Facility - Changing
We have changing facilities in the pool house complete with a rinse shower for before and after your session
Our Endless Pool Facility - Location
Our pool is based in North Swindon, Wiltshire. This is just a short drive from the A419 and just off of the main north Swindon arterial route, Thamesdown Drive.
I am lucky enough to work from home so don’t be surprised that we are not on an industrial estate.

What to expect in your Endless Pool session
At South West Swim, our goal is not just to improve your swimming – but to do so in a relaxed, supportive, and friendly environment. Every session is personalised to suit you and your swimming needs.
We begin with a short warm-up in our private Endless Pool. This gives you a chance to get used to the feel of the pool and allows us to adjust the pace to suit your stroke and ability. Once you’re comfortable, we’ll film your stroke from various angles to either analyse in detail (in our video analysis sessions) or to observe and guide in real-time (for 1-to-1 coaching).
Following this, we’ll get straight back into the water to start working on stroke improvements based on what we’ve seen.
After your session, you’ll receive copies of your swim footage, a detailed session notes file highlighting the key areas we worked on, a personalised technique training plan, and access to SwimSmooth.guru (depending on the session type booked).
