Biel/Bienne
Swimming coach in Biel/Bienne
Biel is the only Swiss town where French and German are genuinely used interchangeably in the same conversation, and that extends to coaching: most of our coaches here switch mid-sentence without thinking about it. If you want to train in one language and are used to being pushed into the other, this is the easiest place in Switzerland to get what you asked for.
The lake is small and warm, the Jura rises immediately behind the town, and the flat Seeland stretches north. Three completely different training surfaces within ten minutes of the station.
Adults are most of this
Most private swimming bookings here are adults, and they split roughly evenly between two groups: people who never properly learned and have decided to fix that, and competent swimmers whose front crawl falls apart past two hundred metres. Both are entirely normal and neither is unusual enough to be embarrassing.
Pool or lake
Pool sessions run year round and are where technical work happens. Open-water sessions in the lake run from roughly June to September, and they are a different skill — sighting, cold, no wall to push off. If you are training for a triathlon or a lake crossing, say so when you book.

Common questions
I cannot really swim. Is that too basic?
No, and adult beginners are a normal booking. Tell us in the notes and we will match you with someone who teaches adults rather than children.
Is the pool entry included?
Yes, where a pool entry fee applies it is arranged with the session and included in the price you see.
Can you help with open-water anxiety?
Yes. Say so when you book — it is a common reason people get in touch, and it is coached differently from technique.
What should I bring?
Swimwear, goggles and a towel. Your coach brings any training aids the session needs.
