You were very attentive to detail and always made sure everyone was confident with a skill before moving on. You explained the why behind all of the technique points you taught helping us all to better understand swimming and how to be fast. You adapted your program, so it was challenging and beneficial to swimmers of all levels and ages which isn’t easy to do. I learned a lot this summer and felt way better in the water than I normally do even after being out of the pool for 4 months. Thank you 🙂

As a parent, I highly recommend Coach Trey Briggs. Our son has been swimming competitively since he was very young, but Coach Trey has helped him refine his swimming technique. Coach Trey sees individual needs and has the training to teach various abilities. Not only is Coach Trey knowledgeable, but he is kind, supportive, and encouraging!

While working with Coach Trey, I have grown as a swimmer. All of my strokes have changed significantly. They are faster and my technique is better which is huge because everything is based on technique. Not only have my strokes improved, I've also become more informed about the sport in general. I’ve been swimming for almost 10 years and throughout this summer and the beginning of the school year, I have continued to learn about swimming, and I have improved more than I ever thought possible. Without Trey’s guidance and coaching, I don't believe I would have reached my full potential. As I continue to work with Trey, I'm excited to see how great I can be.

Coach Trey has helped me improve as a swimmer so much over the past three years that I've swam with him as my head coach. He's helped me with my technique in all of my strokes along with teaching me many valuable life lessons along the way. I've learned so much under him, and I wouldn't have improved as much as I have as a swimmer without him.

Trey is amazing. My daughter worked with Trey last summer. He is an expert on technique and helped her fine tune all of her strokes. We were very pleased with the whole experience.

Three years ago, I joined Amelioration Race Club, coached by Trey Briggs. From the start, I quickly learned that Trey coached differently than really any other coach I have ever had. Trey uses very helpful technique methods that I didn't even know existed, and focuses on every swimmer’s individual needs. Trey definitely has done, and still does, his research on techniques and drills that can improve a swimmer's time and efficiency, and it definitely shows in his coaching. Not only is he a good coach, but he makes practices fun and motivates us to get better.

Trey Briggs is great at teaching technique to swimmers of all ages. He has a professional demeanor and a good rapport with swimmers. He has a good ability to assess a variety of swimmers and give swimmers the correct advice on their strokes.

I really enjoyed having Trey as a coach for the Amelioration Swim Club. He is not like the traditional swim coach that just makes you swim to death. We did swim a lot, but the practices mainly focused on technique which definitely made me think differently about my swimming and helped me improve. After some practices we played different pool games such as sharks and minnows and water polo, which helped me get in shape while having fun. It was a great experience being on Trey’s swim team.

My son had a great experience swimming for Coach Trey’s swim team. I received daily reports of the hard work, but also the fun, at practice. My son always wanted to go back day after day, and he looked forward to it. What I was most impressed with was how much my son improved in his technique and his work ethic, both of which I attribute to Trey’s guidance and encouragement. It was a worthwhile experience and I highly recommended it.

Coach Trey’s coaching methods have provided not only an encouraging boost to my daughters’ swimming, but his training style and focus on technique is, in my opinion, a perfect compliment to any swimmers training regimen.
I have witnessed notable improvements in my daughters’ swim times since they started training with Coach Trey. I credit this to three things: his enthusiasm, his knowledge in swimming, and his creative style of coaching.
In my opinion, Coach Trey’s technique will provide a new kind of swimming insight to you as a swimmer. He’s trained as a coach at the Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs and is continually seeking ways to further his knowledge. I highly recommend him as a coach or swim trainer.

If my kids weren’t already grown, I would be honored to have Trey as their swim instructor. If his coaching ability is half as good as his character, then I’m sure there will be some future Olympians coming from this area.

I do believe that Coach Trey’s program has helped me become a better swimmer. He puts focus in to the minor details and the technique of swimming which is something that you may not be able to focus on as much at a normal practice. You can tell that he has put the time and effort into learning about how to make you a better swimmer and is very passionate towards that goal. I think that if you are trying to become a better swimmer, that having coach Trey as a trainer will make you achieve that goal.

Trey has coached our son on the ARC USA swim team for the last three years. Our son came into swimming later than most kids and as a result he tried to catch up to his peers quickly, which led to him missing some basic skills and techniques. Trey is able to teach and provide the advanced technique training required to make a huge difference in swim competition, but is also able to polish (and at times teach) the basics. He is constantly researching and learning the current techniques, rules, and advancements to pass along to his swimmers. Not only does he strive to teach his swimmers excellent proficiency, but does it in a fun environment that keeps them wanting to come back. Our 17-year-old willingly got up at 5am, in the summer, to drive 45 minutes to swim practice, and that is a testament to Trey! We are proud to say, thanks to Trey, that our son is now a confident, competitive swimmer!!

Great swim lesson instructor!! Very happy for him to be starting Technique Swim Center! We will be customers now even when the outdoor pool is closed! My husband had even agreed that Trey has done a wonderful job working with our sons’ individual personalities and meeting their needs to help them achieve more confidence around a pool and the ability to join a swim team.

Trey Briggs is a good coach. He is creative with his swim practices and teaches good technique. Thanks to Trey for helping me with my overall technique!
