Subject: RE: my swimming 'coach/instructor' is in the tribc newsletter....Vapor - I probably wouldn't suggest the TI masters classes right off the bat....(but probably after a couple of TI lessons you would be okay - just to get a hand of the drills, positioning). I personally was a 'non-swimmer' (my method of swimming more resembled the doggy paddle than anything) back in February when I took my first lessons - TI lessons from the coach linked to above. I took 4 private lessons - practiced one my own for several months (did 2 tri which I was MOP for my swims)....then recently 3 more 'small group lessons (one lesson I was the only one there for 90 mins!). Peter Scott does drops in (you have to pre-book with him) on Weds from 7:30-9:00 pm and Thurs from 8:00-9:30 pm. He said the Weds drops in are going to be for people new to TI and Thurs for the people who have already had a few lessons and working on the more advanced 'details'....so definitely look into TI for starting out!!! If you are local I would whole-heartedly recommend Peter Scott....great to work with! Let me know if you have more ?'s... |
