I have trained with Karen for 4 years and am continually improving. The ocean swimming sessions have been particularly invaluable for both races and training. Learning how to sight, draft, swim in groups at start of a race and around buoys, observe the currents and wind. The pool lessons which are covered in detail by video analysis, have greatly improved my technique. Weekly squad sessions are not only a good workout, but you also receive feedback from Karen on your stroke plus it is great fun. Karen is inspirational, her knowledge is vast and her enthusiasm for the sport is impressive!
