Most swimmers waste years making the same mistakes because they can't SEE what they're doing wrong or follow GENERIC ADVICE from videos on YouTube or Instagram.
The GURU analyzes your stroke and shows you EXACTLY what to fix – using the watch you likely already own.

Coaching the Swimmer, Not the Stroke™
We don't believe an efficient freestyle stroke looks the same for everyone. Your height, build, gender, background, and whether you swim in the pool, open water, or triathlon—all shape your ideal technique.
That's why our coaches have spent 25 years building the world's most specific endurance freestyle program – and now it's all inside the Swim Smooth GURU application.
It's the reason World Triathlon, British Triathlon, and AusTriathlon have trusted us with coach education across 119 countries for nearly two decades.
