      • Swim Coaching Sessions in Fife - Open Water and Pool for all levels

        Hello, I'm James. I'm an outdoor and pool swim coach based in Fife, Scotland.

        I work with swimmers training for events and triathlons, as well as those who simply love swimming and want to build confidence and develop their technique.

        I run open-water coaching sessions at Lochore Meadows throughout the year (yes, even in winter for the hardy ones!). Lochore Meadows is one of the most accessible open water swimming locations in Scotland, and a great place to coach.

        You’ll also find me poolside at Lochgelly High School, where I lead regular sessions focused on skills, fitness, and technique — all in a supportive and friendly environment.

        Whether you’re preparing for your next big challenge or a nervous swimmer looking to grow your confidence, there’s a place for you here.

        If you've got a question, email me on james@roundtheislandswimcoaching.co.uk or scroll down for more details about my sessions.

        🌴 Round the Island – approx. 1500m, a relaxed yet challenging group swim.

        Tailored private sessions are also available and arranged around your schedule. These are ideal if you’re new to open water swimming; you feel nervous about joining a group; you struggle with breathing or technique or you want to prepare for a long-distance swim or event

        You’ll be fully supported — I’ll be in the water with you or alongside in my kayak for longer swims. You set the pace, and I’ll guide you every stroke of the way. 1-1 coaching sessions are £45 each.
