A dedicated and enthusiastic athlete, Sam was not only the Kent County Champion over 100m and 200m backstroke in 2004, 2005 and 2006, but also the 2006 national Aquathlon Champion and finished in the top thirty in the country for the 100m backstroke. He is also a keen triathlete racing for Great Britain during the 2008/9 season and obtaining his Level One ASA British Triathlon Coaching Award alongside his swimming teaching qualifications. For Sam it is the unique hands-on techniques that Swimming Nature encourages that are one of his most valuable teaching tools and considers providing each student with the means of understanding the feel of each correct movement an invaluable asset. Also having a teacher within the pool alongside each student means he is able to offer hands-on support as quickly and as often as needed to ensure each swimmer feels at ease in the water and any incorrect technique can be altered as soon as needed. Sam is a versatile teacher able to teach a wide range of programmes; baby, child, adult and Triathlon too.
