About Competitive & Performance Training
Why I Do What I Do
Swimming has always been about more than just the stopwatch for me. I see every session as a chance to push your own boundaries, whether you’re a kid eyeing your first race medal or an adult prepping for your next big endurance event. The grind matters, but so does the journey and the people you share it with.
Who Trains With Us
- The Marlins: Our juniors and teens chasing the competitive circuit. Think age-group swim team coaching, but with a bigger focus on fun and growth.
- The Jellies: Adults from 20s to 70s - triathletes, open water lovers, Masters swim squad Bangalore regulars. Everyone’s got their own goal, but we move together.
What Makes Our Training Click

- Dry-land Workouts: No skipping here. We do core, shoulder care, and exercises that translate straight to your performance in the water.
- Brain & Body: Holistic athlete development for swimmers isn’t just a buzzword for us. Nutrition, mental game, and recovery all get their spotlight.

My Story
Hey, I’m Nisha. Been in the pool since I was tiny, even made it to Sydney Olympics (yep, wild ride!). After hanging up my racing cap, I just couldn’t ditch swimming, so started this academy. Our ‘Marlins’ (kids) and ‘Jellies’ (grown-ups—long story, involves jellyfish in Goa!) are like family now. We train, joke, sometimes get stung, but always stick together. For me, it’s not just medals, it’s confidence, friends, and a good laugh.
My Work
All kinds of swim classes - Parent-toddler swimming, kids to adults, ladies-only, competitive Marlins, Jellies for open water, personal coaching, and aqua fitness.
Swim anytime, any weather - Over 12 pools in Bangalore, many temperature-controlled or indoors. Even have a 50m Olympic pool for serious swimmers.
Fun and safety first - We keep things light and friendly, but safety’s strict. All coaches are AUSTSWIM certified and trained for emergencies.
Track your swim journey - Our swim certification program lets you earn badges—Starfish to Marlin for kids, Bronze to Gold for adults. Celebrate every step!
