Experience the ultimate swim lesson in an Endless Pool:
In just one session, you can expect rapid improvements in both your speed and technique. The pool's unique design features two large mirrors on the bottom, providing instant visual feedback on your stroke. Swimming against the current allows you to tangibly feel the differences in resistance, helping you adjust your technique for maximum efficiency.
Under Karlyn's expert guidance, you'll enjoy personalized coaching and straightforward explanations that instill confidence in your swimming abilities. In this dynamic environment, you'll progress faster than in a traditional pool, mastering techniques that will transform you into a stronger, more confident swimmer. Take the plunge and discover the Endless Pool's revolutionary approach to swim instruction.
Detailed video analysis of your swim technique:
Karlyn will record a significant portion of your swim lesson, providing meticulous analysis and feedback on your technique as you progress. These videos serve as a powerful tool for instant feedback during the lesson, allowing you to make adjustments and improve in real-time. Moreover, they become an invaluable resource for future reference, enabling you to review and refine your technique for years to come.
These videos will become an essential part of your swimming journey as they will allow you to learn and improve long after the lesson is over.
How do you know if you are a faster swimmer?

It’s science: The speed of the current remains constant unless Karlyn changes it. During your session, Karlyn will provide you with simple and effective suggestions designed to help you improve both your TECHNIQUE and SPEED. When you make these changes, your new swim technique will be faster and cause you to bump into front of pool. You are now a scientifically proven faster swimmer.
Contrast Drills: Throughout your session Karlyn will ask you to compare/contrast a variety of techniques to see what works best for you. This is where you really begin to FEEL the differences. At the end of the session we do a drill called “amnesia” to revisit your “old” stroke. While your “old” stroke may feel comfortable and familiar, you are going to be surprised at how much harder you have to work to go the new speed!
The Noodle: Karlyn will tap you (nicely) with a NOODLE. Sounds weird, but she has found that a gentle tap on the arm, back or head is just one more way to provide you with instant feedback while you swim. Hint: Look in the mirror and you will see it coming!
Frequency of sessions: To achieve the best results, Karlyn suggests two or three sessions.
