About Open Water Swimming Training

My Approach: Mind Over Water

Open water swimming isn’t just about muscles or speed, it’s about training your brain to stay calm when the ocean gets wild. I push people to trust themselves, because most of the time, your mind wants to quit before your body does. I’m all about discipline, consistency, and putting in the hard work - even when it hurts a little and the waves have a mind of their own.

Who Can Join

Honestly, anyone who’s committed. Doesn’t matter if you’re a pool swimmer just testing the sea, a triathlete chasing that Ironman medal, or someone who freezes up at the sight of the ocean. Kids, adults, beginners, pros - if you bring energy and guts, I’ll give you the plan.

How We Train

We start with your mind. You'll face waves and unpredictable water, so first we build open water confidence, teaching you to handle doubt and fear. Then, it’s pool-to-sea transition drills, like front breathing for sighting technique open water, and bilateral breathing for balance. In the ocean, you learn to relax, catch the water right, spot buoys, and move with the current.

Safety and Teamwork

I don’t mess around with safety - every sea session is backed by trained eyes, paddleboards, and boats. You’ll always swim with our Ocean Rangers group, because in a team, you push harder and look out for each other. We do group endurance challenges, sometimes you’ll end up with a mouthful of salty water (beech mein thoda samundar ka paani peena padega), but maza aayega (it’s actually fun).

The Reality

It’s tough, needs patience, and you have to show up every day. Not easy, but if you want glory, do what’s right and never give up.
