About Robyn
I am a qualified Swim England Swimming Coach with the Institute of Swimming (Levels 1 and 2). I have been a competitive swimmer for over 20 years and have competed at both national and international level for Guernsey. I currently compete at masters level and am ranked in the top 10 in the world in my age group for my preferred event - 200m butterfly. For the last 9 years I have also competed in open water competitions, ranging from 1.5km to 10km marathon. Aside from swimming (but still water based!) I am also a certified AIDA 2 Freediver and PADI Trainee Divemaster.

My Coaching Style: I like to coach individuals on a 1:1 basis and usually focus on open water swimming and helping triathletes improve their technique and also fitness in the water. I am happy to coach all 4 strokes or focus on one particular stroke/discipline as preferred. All sessions and plans are tailored to the individual and what they want to achieve. I coach in water during public adult lane swim sessions for 2 reasons (1) I can see your stroke and analyse it from all angles including underwater (2) I can demonstrate skills and drills in person. I tend to work with clients as they need, either on an ad hoc basis or with more regular slots e.g. weekly/fortnightly (e.g. in the lead up to an event or to fit around your commitments). I can also put together more structured/long term programmes depending on your requirements and aims - these are all developed and priced on an individual basis (and will work a discount into the price so you get value for your money!) Types of Clients: I specialise in coaching adults who have busy working lives and want to improve their technique if they are just starting out on their swimming journey, and those who may have been swimming for a little longer or who have maybe taken some time away from swimming and want to get back in the pool and increase their fitness or train for a specific event. I don't teach non-swimmers how to swim - but rather I coach those who have at least some knowledge and experience of swimming (e.g. from school or previous lessons), and help them to improve their technique and fitness, build their confidence and relationship between themselves and the water, and most importantly, help them to have fun! My client base is varied! It includes new swimmers, first-time triathletes, full and half ironmen/women, open water swimmers, people who are recovering from injury and want to include a non-weight bearing sport into their programme, trainee scuba divers and free divers and also those who just want to improve their skills and get moving. Locations: I am based in Tulse Hill/South West London and I have a car so I can be flexible around the area.

Robyn is an absolute lifesaver! She’s been helping me prepare for an Ironman 70.3 transforming me from a complete beginner swimmer who would struggle to do 50m without gasping for air, to swimming 2km comfortably without needing to stop - all over the course of a few months. Her sessions are very focused and she adapts them to what you need. I did a few sessions 2:1 with a friend early on and her knowledge meant that she was able to give quite specific advice on swimming style to each of us based on our body shape. Would highly recommend to anyone seeking to transform their swimming fast.
Robyn has transformed my swimming over the last 6 months. She is a really talented teacher and a lovely person - a friend as well as a coach. Ive gone from not being comfortable in the water to a strong swimmer - looking foward to my Ironman 70:3 rather than dreading it due to her guidance and coaching. Highly recommended. Thank you Robyn!
Robyn has been my coach for just under a year and she has taken me from a complete novice to training for my very first 1/2 iron man.
Her sessions are well thought out as. adaptive.
She’ s been incredible in supporting me not only in the pool in our 1:1’s but offering support in my own practice.
Her knowledge is incredible and she’s also a great person in general!
Highly recommend!Robyn is an excellent swim teacher. As an outstanding swimmer herself she is able to apply her excellent knowledge with great communication for her pupils.
Robyn is excellent! Everything we do is customised so I make the improvements I need. Nothing is generic. Sessions are perfectly tailored to my specific goals and I've seen vast improvements in only a few sessions. Thank you Robyn!!!
Robyn is very supportive and reliable. She coached me for my half ironman and I couldn't have done it without her help. She took me from being a beginner to someone who is now confident in long distance swims.
Robyn supported me when I wanted to try triathlons. I was already a runner and a cyclist but I had no idea how to train for a competitive swim.
She was so helpful in breaking down the different training sessions I needed and providing guidance on how to build both distance and speed.
The sessions were always different so it didn’t get boring. She would also be heavily involved eg swimming behind to check my form, or watching me from the wall to give me feedback.
Thanks Robs!Robyn is a highly motivated and passionate Coach. She cares about her client's development both in the physical and mental sense which is why she’s able to instil such confidence in her athletes so they hit their goals and reach far beyond them!
Super supportive, super trustworthy and practices what she preaches! My swimming gone on leaps and bounds under her guidance. Nicky
Robyn is a great swim coach. Super knowledgable and great at improving your technique to become faster and more efficient!
I've swum with Robyn for years and you won't find many people who love the sport more - she dabbles in everything from club swimming to lido to sea swimming. She's dedicated, lives for the sport and is great craic - she'll make sure you meet your swimming goals.
Robyn is an awesome human and swimming coach. She broke down my swimming and helped me build it back it to be so much more than it was previously. This helped me gain greater confidence in myself which translated into my best performances in races. What shines through with Robyn is just how much she loves swimming and that passion really is contagious.
Robyn is the most relatable, knowledgable coach you could wish for. She has spent over two decades dedicating herself to life in the pool as an incredibly high level competitive swimmer and now shares her knowledge and experience with those wanting to improve and better their technique and performance. She produces sessions that are engaging and varied whilst ensuring they’re tailored to each individuals needs and focusing on improving any areas of weakness.
Robyn is great, a very easy person to get along with and will adapt her style to suit whomever she is working with!
Robyn is kind, knowledgeable and supportive to those of us who aren’t particularly gifted at swimming but are trying to improve. The tips she provided definitely made me a more efficient swimmer and she managed to keep things fun and interesting while also challenging. Couldn’t recommend more!
Robyn is an excellent coach and an astonishing athlete herself. She has many years of experience in international competitive swimming and has been coaching and teaching swimming nearly as long. She is wonderful at both refining technique and at building strength, speed and efficiency. For a swim coach or teacher, you can’t do better.
I started training for triathlons 4 years ago and met Robyn through a mutual friend. After the first session I knew that she would be my coach from then on. He way of explain and articulating made it easier for me to understand. Swimming is very hard for me and Robyn made it very manageable and enjoyable with her sessions and patience,.cause I know she certainly needed it with me. Since I have completed multiple half Ironman and getting ready for the full distance with her help and guidance.
