Liz offers the following services:
TECHNIQUE LESSONS
Currently Liz is booking lessons to improve technique for lap swimmers and competitive swimmers. We start with 2 sessions a couple of weeks apart. Both sessions will include underwater and over the water videos (for adults 18 years and older) and some stroke technique advice. We will spend about 20 min in the water, then I will analyze the videos and send you an email with what elements you need to focus on, as well as some drills and ideas to help improve. Cost including both lessons and the video analyses is $100. Subsequent lessons are $40 each or 4/$150. To schedule your first session, contact Liz at Coachlizhobbs@gmail.com
REMOTE VIDEO ANALYSIS
Liz can help with your technique, even if you aren't in the Northern Arizona area. She can analyze videos taken of a swimmer, both above and below the water. She can analyze using the GoSwim app (see below) or simply give analysis on stroke technique and improvement. Hourly rates for this type of service vary from $40-60, and Liz will send a list of the types of video perspectives most useful for stroke analysis.
GO SWIM ANALYSIS SERVICE
Liz is trained to use GO SWIM's new race/stroke analysis system. Liz can work with swimmers to use this system to improve their race awareness and strategies. Information from this system include strokes per length, DPS, tempo, breakout distances, and velocity per length or race section. Swimmers will subscribe to GoSwim, and this will enable Liz to share videos and have dialogs about them with the swimmer. For more information about this service, please contact Liz at Coachlizhobbs@gmail.com.
COACHING SERVICE
Liz has been an assistant coach for NAU swimming since 2001. She has coached the masters group at NAU since 2000. She was Head Coach of Lumberjack Aquatics until the pandemic shut them down. She has worked with triathletes and open water swimmers at all levels. She can help design a training plan for a specific goal/event, provide workouts for a specific goal or event, or provide in person coaching. Hourly rates for these services range from $40-60.
