How does virtual swim coaching work?

You train in your current pool, with your team or on your own schedule. We meet online once per week or monthly if you need a flexible option (30–60 minutes) to review progress, analyze technique, and set clear priorities.

What are the coaching options and pricing?

Initial Video Analysis Session – $200 (60 minutes with detailed technique feedback). Custom Swim Program – $325 per month, including a weekly 30–60 minute coaching call and 4 weeks of structured programming.

Do I need to change my current swim program?

No. This coaching is designed to enhance your current training. We refine how you execute your workouts for better results.

Do I need to submit swim video?

It is not required, but highly recommended. Video allows for more accurate feedback and faster improvement.

Who is this program for?

Competitive swimmers including high school, collegiate, masters, and triathletes who train consistently and want better performance, structure, and accountability.

How quickly will I see results?

Most swimmers notice improvements in efficiency and feel within 1–3 weeks. Time drops come with consistent application over time.

Can swimmers outside the U.S. join?

Yes. The program is fully remote and available worldwide, with flexible scheduling across time zones.

Virtual Swim Coaching & Consultations

Expert swim coaching wherever you train.

Online performance coaching designed for swimmers who want structure, accountability, and measurable performance gains.

Connect virtually for individualized coaching, technical feedback, training guidance, race preparation, or a second opinion—whether you need a single session or ongoing support.

Virtual coaching can help with stroke technique, training and program review, race strategy, event planning, strength and dryland training, nutrition and recovery, mindset, troubleshooting performance plateaus, and navigating the demands of competitive swimming.

Train at your own pool, with your existing team, or halfway around the world. You don't need to change coaches or programs to benefit from another experienced perspective.

How We Can Work Together Virtually

Technique & Performance Feedback

Submit practice or race footage and meet virtually to review stroke mechanics, pacing, stroke rate, starts, turns, underwaters, gym technique, and other performance opportunities.

Training & Program Review

Already have a coach or program? Get a second set of eyes on your training, workload, progress, taper, strength work or preparation for an upcoming event.

Race Strategy & Event Planning

Build a plan for pool meets, open-water races and triathlons—including pacing, race execution, course strategy, equipment, fueling and logistics

Nutrition, Recovery & Mindset

Use a session to troubleshoot fueling, hydration, recovery, meet preparation, confidence, nerves, routines and other factors affecting performance.

Dryland & Strength Coaching

Train with me live from your home gym, hotel gym or wherever you're traveling, with real-time coaching and feedback.

Swimmer & Parent Consultations

For younger competitive swimmers and their families, sessions can also address training decisions, goal setting, meet planning, balancing swim and strength training, and the college recruiting process.

Whether you’re in the U.S., Europe, Asia, Australia, or anywhere else — you can receive professional guidance from an experienced U.S.-based competitive swim coach.

Book Your Virtual Coaching Session

Live Virtual Swim Coaching

Bring your coach to the pool—wherever you swim.

With a phone or tablet positioned on deck, we can turn a virtual session into a live swim practice. I'll watch you swim, provide immediate technique feedback, prescribe drills, adjust the workout and troubleshoot issues in real time.

It's particularly useful for swimmers who have pool access but don't have access to the specialized coaching they need locally. A tripod, training partner or parent can help position the camera while we communicate throughout the session.

I'd use a strong image/video here showing an actual remote session if you have one. It makes the concept immediately understandable.

Who Is Virtual Coaching For?

Age-group & high school swimmers

Technique, training, racing, strength development and long-term athlete development.

College swimmers

Performance troubleshooting, strength training, race preparation and an outside perspective.

Masters & adult swimmers

Open-water & marathon swimmers

Training, pacing, fueling, equipment, course strategy and event preparation.

Looking for more comprehensive analysis or ongoing coaching?

Virtual Video Analysis

Detailed technical analysis of your swimming with annotated video, coaching feedback and individualized recommendations.

EO SwimBETTER Analysis

How Virtual Coaching Works

1. Schedule Your First Session
Choose a convenient time for a virtual coaching session. When booking, let me know what you'd like to work on so we can make the most of our time together. There’s no ongoing commitment, and additional sessions or ongoing programming are available if you need more support.

2. Share Your Background and Goals
Depending on your goals, you can send training plans, race results, swim footage, upcoming event information, or other relevant materials ahead of your session. For live swim or dryland coaching, we'll discuss the setup and equipment you'll need.

3. Meet, Review & Build a Plan
We'll meet virtually to work through your questions, review your training or technique, coach a live workout, or develop a strategy for what comes next. When appropriate, I'll provide recommendations, resources, or next steps you can put into practice immediately.

Enrollment is limited to maintain coaching quality and individual attention.

Schedule Your First Session

Virtual coaching is built around what you need. We can meet for a single 60-minute session, periodically as questions arise, or as part of ongoing coaching and programming. Sessions can include technique feedback, training or program review, race strategy, event planning, dryland training, nutrition, recovery, mindset, troubleshooting, and more.
Yes. With a phone or tablet positioned on the pool deck, I can watch you swim and provide technique feedback, drills, and coaching in real time. Virtual dryland sessions can also be performed from your home gym, hotel, or training facility with live instruction and feedback.
No. Many swimmers use virtual coaching as an additional resource alongside their existing team, coach, or training plan. We can review what you're already doing, troubleshoot specific issues, prepare for an event, or provide a second perspective without disrupting your current training.
Virtual coaching is available to age-group, high school and collegiate swimmers, Masters swimmers, triathletes, open-water and marathon swimmers, and adults pursuing swimming and performance goals. Parents can also schedule sessions to discuss athlete development, training decisions, meet planning, strength training, or the college recruiting process.
For swimmers who need more comprehensive or ongoing support, I also offer virtual video analysis, EO SwimBETTER performance analysis, custom swim programming, and integrated swim and dryland programming. A virtual coaching session can also help determine which option best fits your goals.
Yes. The program is fully remote and available worldwide, with flexible scheduling across time zones.
