Joy reigns!
The Trainpub team was delighted to receive their first booking through the marketplace. We wanted to be part of this special event, so we contacted Dario and Cédric. With their agreement, we accompanied them on their first swimming lesson.
After an hour-long car ride, we arrived at the aquaRii indoor pool in Altstätten. Our goal was to write an experience report and to collect video material. After a short welcome they jumped into the water and started their training.
The lessons begin
“The first thing we do is to determine where we are,” said Dario. Cédric crawled a length, Dario analyzed his swimming technique to get an overview. Next, they completed some technique drills to improve Cédric’s water position. Likewise, they exchanged ideas about water resistance while swimming. We were all amazed when the former competitive swimmer completed almost 20 meters with only one push-off. “I think there is still a lot of work ahead of me” Cédric confessed laughing. When asked why he booked this offer, he said, “I’ve been wanting to book a swimming lesson for a while and Dario’s offer gave me the impetus to try it out.”

Lessons learned
After an intense lesson, we met for an after-work smoothie – as is the norm in sports. When asked what Cédric takes away from this lesson, he says: “Body tension and breathing are of central importance, as in many sports. Using them optimally takes a lot of practice and a good coach. One like Dario.”
Trainpub connects
Once we had the video footage in the can, we watched the two of them teach. We were proud to have facilitated Dario and Cédric’s exchange through our marketplace. Learning something, sharing experiences and skills, creating personal connections, that’s what Trainpub stands for.
