Testimonials A one-on-one videotaping and stroke analysis session with a certified swim coach will be extremely helpful regardless of what age or skill level. Read what coaches, swimmers and triathletes are saying... "I had no technical swimming background at all when I first started working with Jim, and needless to say, I was a bit intimidated by the pool. But I was determined to do at least one triathlon successfully so I reluctantly asked Jim to help me. Aside from Jim being a wealth of knowledge about the technique of swimming, he is also completely approachable, patient, and encouraging. I would not be the swimmer I am today without him. I have far exceeded any expectations I had for myself when I first sought Jim's advice and attention. Since then I have completed many triathlons successfully, including four Ironman Triathlons. I highly recommend Jim to anyone, at any level; he will help you achieve and exceed your goals."

Jim has helped me to reduce my time in the
water EFFICIENTLY. His on-the-spot analysis of swimming form through underwater
video has increased my speed, while conserving my energy, decreasing my overall
time. I would highly recommend Swim-Tek to any triathlete looking to enhance
their performance. Rock On Jim.
As a
triathlete, the amount of time I spend in the water can be the difference
between winning and losing a race. Jim's videotaping and stroke analysis has
helped me to improve my stroke. Through his expertise he was able to analyze my
stroke and offer me advice and drills on how to improve my technique, thus
allowing me to become a more efficient swimmer. I highly recommend Jim's video
analysis for anyone who is serious about improving their stroke.
As
a coach I can highly recommend Jim Williams and his videotaping service. He
offers state of the art video equipment to film above water and below water for
strokes and turns. He also offers excellent commentary that is pertinent and
informative for use in the future. He then offers you the appropriate drills,
which you can use during your own practice time, which will help improve your
swimming technique.
It was obvious to me
immediately that Jim had a wealth of knowledge and experience when it comes to
coaching swimming technique and fitness. He went through, step-by-step, what a
good swim stroke should look like, totally emphasizing body position first, then
breaking down the actual arm stroke itself. I was amazed at how obvious many of
my technique flaws were when I watched the replay of the video at regular speed
and slow motion.
As a fitness
swimmer Jim's coaching has been indispensable to me. I am new to the sport of
swimming and after a few months of moderate effort my shoulder became so sore I
was unable to get any kind of a workout from swimming. I sought Jim's help
having read that poor technique was almost always responsible for "swimmers
shoulder" or rotator cuff problems. The video clips of my stroke above and below
water graphically showed why my shoulders hurt. Jim has cleaned up my stroke to
the point where I can swim much faster and longer and without shoulder pain.
Swim-Tek is a state of the art, yet
personal way, to get a clear idea as to what you are doing right and wrong in
your swimming efforts. Whether you are a triathlete, competitive, recreational,
collegiate, high school, or really any other type of swimmer Jim can help you
refine what you’re doing through video analysis and many years of expertise. He
will show you in very little time what you need to do to get more comfortable
and faster in the water with drills and visualization. Jim has seamlessly fused
the technical and philosophical elements of efficient swimming and communicates
in a lucid way that I can honestly say trumped most of the coaching I received
in two years of high school swimming.
