In addition to these structured plans, I offer options: I have an “A+ Plan” beyond that listed above, for a negotiated fee starting at $750 per month, for serious athletes seeking even more personalized, hands-on coaching and instruction. Please contact me directly to discuss these options.

You’ll notice that there isn’t a cheaper, bulk rate coaching option, consisting of little more than a written training plan offered. That’s not an omission. That’s because I believe that a training plan is a generic product, not the same real service as individual coaching. I offer training plans for specific races, however I don’t list those under my Coaching service options here. When deciding what service or product to obtain, be sure to consider carefully whether or not you want a predetermined training plan, or on-going coaching and expert feedback. These are very different approaches to your season. Either one can be right for you, but be sure you know the difference. If you want to discuss your options and constraints, please email me as I’m very happy to discuss them with you.

Open Water Swimming –

I specialize in teaching open water swim skills. I bring lifelong experience as a body surfer and swimmer, and in-depth knowledge of surf, current and shoreline conditions to teaching open water skills for ocean, bay, lake or river swims for triathlon. Skills taught include drafting, sighting, negotiating buoys, swimming in packs, starts and exits, and more.

$130- each for 1 or 2 individual sessions

$300– for 3 or more; individual sessions

Group options of 2 or more people are available for discounts. Get your friends, and let’s hit the waves!

A good option to lower the cost, and if you don’t want to do these alone, is to grab a few friends, other triathletes, and make it a group session. I will work with your group to establish the fee based on the variables, such as the size of the group, number of workouts, location, Bay vs. open ocean, etc. But take my word for it, if you’re triathlete, it will be money well spent!
