Swimfit For Life

After 1 lesson with Irene I am already enjoying freestyle more. The drills set were enjoyable and comfortable. Now Lesson 2 has passed, I have more drills and my swimming technique has vastly improved, and I'm relaxing and enjoying myself. Thanks Irene, I look forward to lesson 3!!

We recently visited Port Douglas on holiday and I contacted Irene at Swimfit for ten lessons for my six year old and two adult stroke improvement lessons for myself (I am a keen swimmer and swim for exercise, but hadn't had lessons since childhood). Irene was easy to communicate with via email and offered to give the lessons at the pool at our hotel.Hands down, it was the best part of our holiday. Irene is a superb teacher and the progress my daughter and I made in such a short time was remarkable.My daughter went from being a non-swimmer (though she could float) to learning freestyle and breaststroke, diving and floating on her back. The tips Irene gave me have completely changed my speed, style and enjoyment of swimming. It was remarkable how much personalised information she managed to fit into only two lessons.If you are visiting Port Douglas on holiday, do this! Even one or two lessons will make a big difference to your swimming.

20 weeks ago, I couldn’t swim 25 meters without being out of breath, and I’d signed up to swim the 70.3 swim … what was I thinking?!After signing up with Irene, I was guided and supported through a great program to help build my confidence, skill and ability in the water. Irene was quick to share her tips and tricks and always eager to make me a better swimmer. Over the 20 weeks, I built up the ability to swim the 70.3 (1.9km) with ease and comfort knowing I’d had the best training possible. I’d certainly recommend Irene to anyone starting out or needing extra motivation with their swimming!

What is there not to love about SWIMFIT???? Irene (the most amazing coach) has taken me from a level that I thought was acceptable to competing at a level I never thought I would ever achieve. Her kindness, support and magical ability to renew my love of swimming is out of this world!!!! Our Swimfit group are the most amazing group of friends and welcome ANYONE and ANY ability...

Irene is simply one of the best coaches I have worked with. At my age it was difficult to get back into competitive swimming (triathlon) but she was superb. Gave me more confidence and I am looking forward to the swim squads rather than dreading them.
