About Our Swimming Workshops
Since 1988, thousands of people have learned to swim better, faster and easier and enjoy it more, using the simple and original techniques developed by Terry Laughlin, the world's foremost teacher of "Fishlike Swimming™". At Total Immersion Workshops people learn much quicker than with any conventional swimming lessons. Our freestyle weekends have been attended by countless swimmers from a vast range of backgrounds, including triathletes, recreational swimmers, age-group and masters competitive swimmers
Why "Fishlike" Swimming™?
Fish can swim as fast as 68 mph (as fast as a cheetah can run!), while the fastest humans max out at just 5 mph. Fish move so fast and effortlessly because of a natural ability to avoid drag. Human swimmers struggle clumsily against the water’s resistance, and their arm flailing actions only makes them slower and less efficient. Other swimming lessons, clinics or workshops; by teaching traditional "Human Swimming" techniques, mainly reinforce old habits. Total Immersion is the only place to learn the cutting-edge techniques of active streamlining and whole body propelling movements that lead to a stroke-technique comparable with the world's best swimmers
Total Immersion Coaches Can Teach Almost Anyone!
Whether you’re new to swimming or have years of experience, Total Immersion can provide you with all the tools you need to become the best swimmer you can be. Swimmers at our weekend workshops – even those who have been frustrated for years – have seen their swimming improve dramatically in just seven-hours of instruction. We speed up the learning curve by concentrating on the essential skills of fishlike swimming: posture, alignment, balance, breathing, core rotation, kick mechanics and whole body propelling movement patterns. These are all skills we see with high level swimmers and are skills that don’t require experience, fitness, youth, or power - they are skills that ANYONE can learn at any age. We teach you how to tap into core power for safe and fast swimming. By giving us a weekend of your time you will be taking the first steps to becoming the kind of swimmer you would want to be.
