Frequently Asked Questions

• What swimming stroke correction clinics are available in Sydney?

  +

  Effortless Swimming offers specialized stroke correction clinics in Sydney for freestyle, backstroke, and breaststroke. The freestyle clinic runs for 4 hours and includes underwater filming and analysis. Backstroke and breaststroke clinics are small group sessions limited to 6 swimmers per clinic, with each participant receiving underwater filming at the start, followed by pool work with tailored feedback. All clinics are conducted by coaches with National or International level competition or coaching experience.

• How does the underwater video analysis work in swimming clinics?

  +

  Participants receive comprehensive video analysis filmed from multiple angles—above and below water. The footage is recorded and emailed to you after the session. For follow-up sessions, analysis is uploaded to the Skillest app within one week, with recommended drills included. The video analysis is done by your coach during the week and delivered remotely, not during the in-person session.

• What should I wear to dance fitness classes in Sydney?

  +

  Dress requirements vary by class style. Hip Hop classes require street gear you can move in, with mandatory street/runners or dance shoes.

Afro Fusion classes require gym shoes, sneakers, running shoes, or barefoot dancing with loose-fitting gym pants and a stretchy singlet or t-shirt.
