ABOUT DARIA

Hi! I'm Daria, and I'm the founder of City Swim Clinic.

Background

In 2016 I opened City Swim Clinic in the Netherlands, to help my swimmers learn proper technique and prepare for triathlons and open water races. In parallel, I also coached the competitive swimming club at Erasmus University.

In 2018 I moved to London and brought City Swim Clinic with me. I now coach a number of swimmers of various ages and backgrounds.

Qualifications and experience

I have 22 years' swimming experience across various disciplines. My knowledge comes from working with high class coaches in Russia, UK and Netherlands.

I am also a certified personal trainer and yoga teacher – working in these fields continuously deepens my understanding of human anatomy and methods to develop a good physique, which I apply in coaching my swimmers.

Coaching style

Working within the British ASA framework, I create an easy and non-forceful learning environment. My work as a coach is about precision, open dialog, enjoyment and fun.

Helping people to achieve their goals is deeply satisfying to me. I will help you gain water confidence and take full advantage of swimming's health benefits.
