What is the James Guy Academy?
The James Guy Academy is an online swimming community where swimmers of all levels can learn from 6x Olympic medallist James Guy. From expert coaching and exclusive training tips to mindset and race strategy, it’s designed to help you become a better swimmer.

I started at a club in Bury. Same as most of you.
Trafford Metros. Two lanes, early mornings, parents in the spectator seats with a flask. Nobody there thought they were watching a future Olympic champion, least of all me.
At 13 I got a swimming scholarship to Millfield and left home. That's the moment everything changed, not because I suddenly got fast, but because I walked into an environment where people knew what they were doing. Coaches who'd been there. Training that made sense. Answers to questions I didn't yet know how to ask.
My first international medal was a bronze at the European Juniors in 2012. Three years later I was world champion in Kazan. Then Rio, then Tokyo, then Paris.
Thirteen years on the Great Britain team, and I've thought about that gap ever since, between the swimmer I was in Bury and the swimmer I became at Millfield. It wasn't talent that closed it. It was access.
Most swimmers never get anywhere near an environment like that. Not because they aren't good enough. Because there's no door.
That's the whole reason the Academy exists.
Founding member pricing closes Saturday 1 August. Link in bio.

"Is this replacing my coach?"
No. And if anyone sells you an online product that claims to, walk away.
Your coach sees you swim five times a week. They know your stroke, your habits, and what you're like when you're tired. I can't do that from a screen and I wouldn't pretend to.
The Academy sits around your coaching, the technical detail, the mindset, the recovery, the race prep, the parent side. The stuff there's never enough pool time for. Coaches are welcome inside, and honestly I'd rather have them there.
"I'm not that fast. Is it for me?"
I was a county swimmer before I was anything else. The principles that took me from there to an Olympic final are the same ones that take you from a club time to a county one. First qualification or international final, same fundamentals.
"I'm not a competitive swimmer at all."
Masters swimmers and triathletes are in there too. If you're an adult who wants to stop fighting the water, the technical work applies to you exactly the same way.

The sets that feel hardest are the ones that change you. Every key session is a chance to push past what’s comfortable, and the results follow the work you put in. Show up, back the process, repeat.

You’re not 25 anymore. So why are you still training like you are?
Your body changes. Your recovery changes. Your priorities change. And maybe finding the time to train six days a week just isn’t realistic anymore.
But that doesn’t mean your progress has to stop.
It means your training needs to evolve.
Forget more volume for the sake of it. Forget sessions that leave you exhausted but get you nowhere.
It’s time to focus on:
→ Less wasted training.
→ More quality in every session.
→ Smarter recovery.
→ Training that’s specific to YOUR goals.
Because getting older doesn’t mean settling for less. It means training smarter to get more from what you do.
Our 6-week personalised training plan takes your individual goal and builds your training around where you are now, your lifestyle and what you want to achieve.
Train smarter. Recover better. Keep progressing.
DM us “6 WEEKS” to find out more. 👊

The results speak for themselves. 🙌
We’ve received some incredible reviews from swimmers and families in the James Guy Academy, and it’s amazing to see the progress being made.
From personalised race plans and stronger finishes to new personal bests, improved technique and greater mental confidence.
But for me, it’s about more than just faster times.
It’s about helping swimmers understand their potential, believe in themselves and become better athletes.
Every swimmer has a different journey, and we’re proud to be part of yours.
A huge thank you to everyone who has taken the time to share their experience. We’re only just getting started! 💪

You spend so much time showing up for everyone else… when do you show up for YOU? 🏊♀️
Between work, family and life’s endless to-do list, swimming can slip down the priority list. But your PB goals haven’t gone anywhere!
Your training should fit around your life, not the other way around.
Our 6-week swim plan is built around your goals, your event and the time you actually have available.
Because you deserve to chase your goals, too. 💪
🏊 Ready to make your next PB a priority? Let’s get started!

9 clinics. 300+ kids. Dubai to Riyadh. 💙🏊♂️
What an incredible experience!
Having James Guy work with swimmers and clubs across Dubai and Riyadh was something really special.
These clinics were about so much more than just swimming. From getting in the pool with James to hearing about his journey, the challenges he’s faced and what it really takes to reach the top, we hope every swimmer left feeling inspired to dream bigger and keep pushing themselves.
Seeing so many clubs come together from across the region and watching the swimmers enjoy every minute made it all SO worth it.
We’re doing it again in April! 👀
Want to get involved next time? Whether you’re a swimmer, parent or club, send us a DM with “CLINIC” and we’ll share more details.
We can’t wait to make the next one even bigger. 💙

Comment “RACE” and I’ll send you my guide.
After years of racing at the highest level, I’ve learned that the smallest details can make a big difference.
Sleep well. Fuel your body. Warm up properly. Know your race plan.
And when you get behind the blocks, trust the work you’ve put in.
You don’t need to do something extraordinary on race day. You need to execute what you’ve prepared for.
💬 What’s one thing you never skip on race day?
