Testimonials
"After meeting Coach Grace during a swim and asking her for technique tips, I hired her as my swim coach. We met monthly to review my swim form, and she would apply the cues and drills we went over during our lesson to the following week’s swim workouts. Her workouts were always personalized to match my goals and what I enjoyed doing in the pool. She is also great with communication and was flexible around my schedule. When I could not swim, she organized strength workouts to help me maintain swim-specific strength. My technique improved to the point where others commented on my form since starting with Grace, and I became more efficient and faster in the water, dropping close to 10 seconds off of my average 100/yd freestyle pace. Grace did a great job analyzing my progress that my workouts were always challenging but attainable, just as I requested.” - David C (Swimming)
“I contacted Grace in the fall of 2022 to help me get ready for 70.3's and another full Ironman. Under her guidance, these have been some of the most consistent months/years of training I have ever done. She structures my training based on my schedule and is always easy to reach if I need to move stuff around. I also appreciate her knowledge and honesty when it comes to executing the workouts properly, it's been a learning experience! I have been in the sport for a while (60-64 AG) but with her training structure and added strength sessions in the gym, I feel my body is still capable of achieving big goals. With her help, I had one of my best races last year at Augusta 70.3. Ever since using Grace as my coach, exercising has been more exciting and fun!!” - Danny M (Triathlon)
“I worked with Grace Alexander for nearly two years, and in that time my overall fitness improved exponentially. Grace works on the whole package, including strength and flexibility, which made a massive difference for me. She communicates well and frequently enough to keep me apprised of the training plan, and she includes her athletes and their lives in that planning. With her deep scientifically grounded knowledge of endurance training, she always has a reason for each session and gladly explains things when asked. During our time working together, I gained valuable insights into how my body works and what training methodology benefits me. Thanks to Grace, I'm in the best shape of my post-40 life.” - Dave S (Triathlon)
