From explosive starts to endurance sets, see how we sharpen technique across all four strokes in every session.

Here's a glimpse of my own workout, focusing on Butterfly, Backstroke, and Breaststroke. I use these demos to show my swimmers the technique, and they are never shy about giving me corrections. We all keep learning.

Our sub-juniors and juniors practicing their backstroke starts and race strokes under the lights. Practice makes perfect, and we are always looking for those small improvements that make a big difference in a race.

This is the Individual Medley, or IM. It involves swimming all four strokes in order: Butterfly, Backstroke, Breaststroke, and Freestyle. We program IM sets to develop well-rounded, versatile swimmers.

Diving into deep water can be scary, but we break it down step-by-step. Here, our younger swimmers are learning to dive in the deep end while our pre-competitive kids practice from the starting blocks.

Sunday Funday means a full house and sprint sets. Here are our advanced kids and adults going head-to-head in some friendly competition. The energy is always high on sprint day.

An early 5 AM start for the Marlins and the Jellyfish. Training under the sunrise at our Nalapad Academy center is a beautiful way to start the day.

There's nothing quite like a sunrise swim. Our competitive team gets their weekend training in as the day begins. It's a peaceful but powerful start to a tough session.

Our swimmers working on their timing and rhythm, sinking in sync. Drills like this help improve coordination and feel for the water, which are crucial for efficient swimming.

Magnificent skies over our Domlur rooftop pool. We are lucky to train in some of Bangalore's best facilities, offering fresh air and beautiful views to go with the hard work.

We are excited to train at this beautiful 50-meter Olympic size pool at the Ray Center in Wilson Garden. A long-course pool is perfect for building endurance and preparing for major competitions.

About The Grind: Training & Technique

When you join our sessions, you aren't just swimming laps. We use underwater video analysis to show you exactly where your stroke breaks down, then we drill the specific catch or rotation until it becomes second nature, so you stop guessing and start improving.
