Step 1 - Perfect Your Technique
The number one way to improve your swim time is to perfect your stroke technique. Without
the pressure of an impending race and training schedule, Fall and Winter are the perfect
times to learn and practice proper swimming technique. We are indoors, warm and relaxed
in controlled conditions, able to focus on what we need to train our bodies and minds for
faster, easier open water swimming.

Step 2 - Practice With Experienced Coaches
It is impossible to see yourself swim. Therefore, in order to
improve your stroke technique you need another set of eyes.
You won't find a more experienced team of coaches than
WaveOne. Our instructors possess many years of coaching
and competitive swimming experience, both indoors and in
open water.
WaveOne Instruction for Beginners and Intermediate
Swimmers keeps a low coach to swimmer ratio. This ensures
instruction is easily understood and feedback on your progress
is generous.
WaveOne also provides above and underwater video analysis
during Sunday classes as another tool for technique
improvement. We'll show you how you are swimming and what
adjustments should be made for faster easier swimming. This
helps connect your mind to body and speeds improvement.
In addition to Sunday classes, WaveOne coaches provide
informal swim instruction at the Wilson Aquatic Center
Wednesday and Friday evenings from 6:45pm to 8pm.
What people say...
"I took a stroke technique clinic w Tammy and Denis [about a year ago]. It was the best thing I did. Their workouts kicked my butt initially,
but they provided so many great cues and corrected my stroke in multiple ways, I remember how significantly stronger I felt as a
swimmer after the first practice. Tammy was great! If she is coaching I say definitely go for it!!" -K.D. [Yes, Tammy and Denis are coaching]
Eliminate your bad habits:
- Stop struggling to breathe by learning better body balance.
- Feel like you work so hard and don't go anywhere?
- Swim easier by learning the WaveOne feel the water techniques that help you be comfortable and
propel yourself through the water.
- Swimming with dragging your hips and legs? We teach you streamlined body position.
- Stop kicking like a "runner" and learn fluid swim kicking that saves energy.
What you will learn:
- Techniques and training for a 1,500m open water race.
- Straight line swimming that eliminate excess mileage.
- How to break through a plateau. For example, you are swimming 100's but can't seem to swim faster
that 1:54 per 100 no matter how hard you try. We will work with you to break through to your next faster
level.
- What interval training is and how it will make you stronger and faster.
