About Swim Smooth Perth
Swim Smooth Perth is the home squad of the globally recognised Swim Smooth coaching system, training out of Claremont Pool in Perth's western suburbs. Founded and led by head coach Paul Newsome, the program has helped swimmers of every level refine their technique, build endurance and rediscover their enjoyment of the water.
The coaching philosophy blends individualised stroke analysis with structured, purposeful squad sessions, so each swimmer understands not just what to change but why. Members consistently praise Paul's personable, clear and insightful approach, noting how quickly he identifies the small adjustments that unlock smoother, faster swimming.
With year-round squad sessions in a heated pool, video analysis, one-day clinics and dedicated open-water preparation, Swim Smooth Perth caters to triathletes, fitness swimmers and anyone training for events like the Rottnest Channel crossing. Flexible, no-lock-in attendance makes it easy to fit serious coaching around a busy schedule, whether you are chasing a personal best or simply want to swim with more ease and confidence.
