Your swimming coach Markku Illi
With over 10 years of experience in personalized swimming instruction, you can feel at ease with me.
I’ve been actively involved in swimming throughout my life, starting from primary school training groups and technique courses. My swimming journey has continued over the years in both pools and natural waters, during summer and winter. I’ve swum in the sea far from shore, in cold waters, and amidst strong waves. I can freedive to depths exceeding 10 meters. You can watch a video of my long open water swim on YouTube if you like.
My qualifications in the field of sports:
- FAF Personal Trainer
- SUH Swimming Instructor
My expertise lies in refining swimming techniques to be as economical and efficient as possible. Regardless of your starting level, I approach instruction calmly and encouragingly. I will be by your side in the pool throughout the entire lesson.
I am committed to teaching you patiently and individually, whether you are a complete beginner, an open water swimming enthusiast, or a triathlete aiming to enhance your performance.
There is still room for improvement in swimming skills among Finns and residents in Finland. I want to contribute to that progress.
Welcome to learn in a safe, clear, and relaxed atmosphere.
