Your Swim

Essex outdoor swim coach is proud to offer an all inclusive and thorough swim coaching service - everyone is welcome. Whatever your ability we have you covered, my services include but are not limited to;

  • Pool transition -  If you've never swum open water before and need some guidance in the pool first. I'll work with you to build confidence in the basic techniques and knowledge required before you head off to the exhilarating open water environment.
  • First Timer - Competent pool swimmer but never attempted open water? I offer 1:1 open water introductory sessions to accompany and help you begin building confidence in what may well become your new home!
  • Swim fitter - Swim for fitness? Want to take your skills in to the open water or improve your technique? Or just gain some more advanced understanding of open water tips, kit, technique? I can offer you tailored sessions to cover off any specific area you may need guidance in.
  • Time chaser - Triathlete? Competitive swimmer? Do you have an event upcoming and want to improve your performance and times? Is it your first competitive open water swim? Is swimming your "weak leg"? I can offer you sessions to improve breathing, positioning, propulsion and advanced open water skills such as pack starts, drafting, buoy turns, sighting, feeding, run outs, transitions etc. If you want to take seconds and minutes off your best time or just be well prepared for an open water event I can help...
  • Mental Health Swims - A session focussing on the pure benefits of wellness and relaxation for those of you that would simply like a stress relieving accompanied dip.
  • Cold water immersion - The scientifically proven benefits of cold water swimming are huge. It is known to help fight depression, boost your immune system, gives a natural high by activation of endorphins, burns calories, reduces stress, helps with diabetes, and is also known to aid arthritis by reduction of inflammation. Over and above all that it is simply the most amazing feeling, a natural high that is nigh on unbeatable! It is such a popular pursuit right now, you may have seen lots of people bobbing around in your local sea or river and thought you'd like to give it a try but don't know where to start? I am particularly pleased to be able to offer sessions specific to cold water introduction. Believe me when I say, once you have tried it you will find yourself wanting more and more!


If any of these scenarios sounds like you then please do get in touch. If  they don't then please still get in touch! I am always ready and willing to discuss your individual needs / requirements and what I can do to work with you on them.  Please remember the sessions are all about you and your enjoyment. There is never any pressure or getting ahead of ourselves - learning is done by you, at a pace you are comfortable with. Unless you are a triathlete, then we may need to crack the whip a little!


About Me

Welcome to the website! I'm Paul and an STA level 2 open water swimming coach - trained by triple Olympian and double world open water 10km champion Keri-anne Payne. I've had a passion to just be near, in, or on, the water my whole life. Any body of water will do but I'm particularly at home in the sea. I  live in the beautiful coastal town of  Leigh On Sea and very fortunate to have the Thames Estuary at the end of my road. Open water swimming for me has always been about relaxation, escapism, freedom -  and of course fun. Modern life can be a million miles an hour, but in the sea you will find your moment of serenity. There are endless benefits to open water swimming in terms of mental and physical well being. Having enjoyed these benefits myself I am very passionate to share my experience and enable others to feel the same.  I am additionally proud to be a regional open water coach & swim host for "mental health swims" organisation.

When and where

Transition sessions are held in a local outdoor heated pool.

Sea swimming is along the Essex estuary. I am based on Chalkwell beach but we can dip in all the way along the coast line.

Rivers - The Roach, Crouch, Stour and Chelmer.

Have your eye on a spot somewhere already? Please message me through the site - I'm always happy to discuss.
