About Coach Irene
I have been a swimmer all my life and after moving to Australia from the Netherlands it was a natural move for me to get into ocean swimming and triathlons. Training outside in beautiful Far North Queensland, what's not to love!
Of course, there was the slight issue of not being a great runner and cyclist, but with the help of an awesome coach, I tackled these issues and completed the Cairns 70.3 in 2014 and 2015.
Especially the first one was a very new and special experience for me, and with the help of my coach and team buddies I loved every second of it. The tears ran down my face when I crossed the finish line, I just could not believe I was capable of finishing a massive race like the Cairns 70.3!
It is now my passion to coach others to smash their Ironman or 70.3 race. I still love competing in long-distance races and ocean swims myself, like the Magnetic Island to Townsville Swim, Lake Barrine Bash, Noosa Ocean Swim and I have just recently completed my first Coolangatta Gold... individual long-course to be precise. Again I totally surprised myself with being able to complete such an iconic race. I would love for you to feel those same feels!
While getting involved in the world of triathlons I had more and more people ask me if I could help them with their swimming. 'You make it look so easy and effortless, I want to swim like you. Could you please help me?'. Of course!
I noticed that the sport of triathlon presents a challenge for most adults getting into it, the swim leg! Besides (school) swimming lessons as a child, they've never learned this skill which is pretty necessary to complete a triathlon of any size.
So back in 2015 I started Swimfit with the goal to help as many adults on their journey to complete a triathlon or ocean swim and master the art of freestyle to get there.
Over the last 8+ years I have coached 100's of people to finish their first triathlon, Ironman, 70.3 or Ocean Swim.
Every person is different but I have learned along the way that there are a few basic fundamentals that, if performed correctly, quickly help you to become an efficient and confident swimmer.
If this sounds like something you need to know more about, this is the program for you my friend!

"20 weeks ago, I couldn’t swim 25 meters without being out of breath, and I’d signed up to swim the 70.3 swim … what was I thinking?!
After signing up with Irene, I was guided and supported through a great program to help build my confidence, skill and ability in the water. Irene was quick to share her tips and tricks and always eager to make me a better swimmer.
Over the 20 weeks, I built up the ability to swim the 70.3 (1.9km) with ease and comfort knowing I’d had the best training possible. I’d certainly recommend Irene to anyone starting out or needing extra motivation with their swimming!"

"The last time I competed in a long course Triathlon event was more than 25 years ago. I signed up for the Ironman program with coach Irene to bring form and distance back to my swimming. The Swimfit program was balanced, challenging and motivating. The video analysis is a great idea.
I highly recommend Coach Irene and her Swimfit Ironman swim program.
I again feel confident in my swim abilities and as long as I continue to do the work, when race day comes around, I know I will be the best I can be.
Thanks Irene"

"I completed RACE DAY!!
Big thank you Irene! Went from being gassed after 400m in the pool to completing the swim in 40mins and coming out fresh. Very happy with that for a first time. Already thinking about next year and breaking the 40min barrier."

"I've always trained for swimming on my own, having tried a few swim programs in the past, paid a fortune, and simply been given an enormous list of generic drills and over-complicated technical things to work on - as an age group triathlete aiming for open-water swims, this wasn't for me.
I was impressed with the way Irene explained the purpose of each drill (no more time-wasting drills!), and gave simple, fundamental advice to fix my swim stroke with maximum yield.
I went from smashing myself in the pool and standing still with my swim times (approx 40mins for the 70.3 distance) to swimming smoother, stronger and more in control of my swim - in the space of 3 months, Irene took me to a 34min swim at Geelong 70.3 last year, which was an enormous PB for me!
I cannot speak highly enough of her passion, professionalism, approachability and knowledge, particularly with open-water swimming. She has literally changed the game of swimming for me and I am so grateful."
