Zug

Swimming coach in Zug

Zug is compact enough that the lake, the old town and the base of the Zugerberg are all within a short ride of each other. The lakeside path is flat and sheltered; the Zugerberg behind gives a short, steep climb that is ideal for interval work and is the default hill session for everyone who trains here.

The town's commodity trading and corporate population books differently from elsewhere: more lunchtime slots, more two-person sessions with colleagues, and more sessions arranged at short notice. English is the working language for most of our coaches here.

Swimming

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.
