About Us
We are happy to work together with Triathlon Clubs who want to run camps in Niseko.
Coaches
Our coaching philosophy is all about keeping it simple, traning hard and smart and improving. We believe anyone can improve their performance if they train right. We view triathlon as a single sport and understand that the swim, bike and run legs are all interconnected and need to be approached differently than three single sports. During the camps we will cover the following topics:
How to fit triathlon training into your busy lifestyle
Triathlon specific swim tips and stroke feedback
Run technique sessions
How to keep it simple, cut out the fluff and get results
Bike aerodynamic checks and feedback
Injury prevention and management
