Roger to TI:
A big thank you for suggesting I get in touch with Gay
Clarke. I have just returned from a weekend
staying with Gay and her husband, being coached by her. I was very
impressed with her expertise. She is extremely good at analysing and
explaining thoroughly without the unnecessary padding and repetition you often
get with coaches who are not confident in what they do. The weekend far
exceeded my expectations. I have come away with a marked improvement in
both my balance in the water and my flutter kicking and an understanding of
how I need to practice to progress through the first set of drills. Gay,
as an ME sufferer, was also able to give me
much useful advice in coping with the condition while learning to swim and
indeed for life in general.
Steve:
Gay, Thanks you
so much for everything you've done for me. I can't believe all those
wasted years and lessons at my local pool. I really was beginning to
think I could never learn to swim. In one short week you changed all
that. So now I can be in the pool with everyone else and hold my
own. I just wish I had found you earlier .
Lisa:
Before I set out that first day I had never been so
frightened in my life . I very nearly didn't make it to the pool.
Looking back that night I was amazed how quickly things had changed for me.
If anyone had told me I would be kicking and floating on my back without a
care in the world I'd have thought they were mad. It was one of the
best weekends I've ever had. I am practising all the things you've
taught me and I will definitely be coming back. Gay and Irene, you can't
know what this means to me.
Dear Gay, Thank
you so much for your time on Saturday. I truly enjoyed it. Now I wish
I could be in a pool all day. A total novelty. I have to say that I
did so much better than I expected, so lots of credit to you on such good
instructions! Roxana:
