More About Coach Kohlton

I have trained and coached athletes for the last 15 years. I have experience coaching swimmers and triathletes of all levels; beginners to olympians and world record holders. I have traveled world wide to host swim clinics and was the National Development coach for Zimbabwe in 2015. I currently hold my USA coaching certificate as well as my CPR and First Aid certifications. I have trained and learned from some of the fastest swimmers in the world and I am willing to share my knowledge with my clients.

My speciality is helping highschool athletes understand the college recruiting process and advising them on dates and actions that need to take place during their junior and senior years.

Two time Olympic Trial Qualifier in 2008 and 2012. Competed as a USA National Team Member at the World University Games in Shenzhen, China and won a Gold and Silver Medal. Attended Auburn University and was a 3 time NCAA Division 1 Champion.

Swim Training: In a typical one hour session an athlete could expect one-on-one coaching specialized towards their needs/wants. I am very familiar with coaching all strokes and have done so at a national level. Whether you are looking for stroke refinement or a swim workout, this will be completely catered for you.

Online Training: Over the last couple years, online training has become extremely popular. I have coached many triathletes by writing workouts for them, then analyzing their strokes on a consistent basis. The online training is completely tailored towards your workout preference and can be completed usually in 30 or 60 min increments.

Writing Workouts: You may not want swim lessons or stroke refinement. Maybe you get tired of following the black line without knowing what is next. Give me a yardage requirement and I will write you a 30 or 60 minute workout, catered towards your fitness goals.

Client Reviews

Coach Kohlton has been a huge help in helping my son improve his swimming strokes. He is detail oriented and gives great advice.

Worked well with patience and understanding. Knows the mindset of a teenager adjusted during his coaching to acknowledge if and when my son was truly understanding the connection of conceptual and practical. Very knowledge of the sport and how to teach it. First lesson but confident the lesson and advise given will improve his overall goal.

“My son had his first swim lesson with Kohlton and it was a great experience! In just one session, he made my son feel comfortable and confident in the water. The lesson was well-structured, and Kohlton provided clear instructions and encouragement throughout. We’re excited to continue and see how my son progresses under his guidance. Highly recommend based on our initial experience!

Here's an expanded version of the review:

We recently had our first swimming class with Coach Kohlton, and I couldn’t be more impressed. From the moment the session began, it was clear that he has a natural talent for working with kids. My children instantly felt comfortable with him, which made the experience enjoyable and stress-free for them—and for me as a parent.

Coach Kohlton is not only incredibly patient but also highly skilled in teaching all the professional techniques. He breaks down each step in a way that’s easy for kids to understand, ensuring they build confidence in the water while also learning proper swimming form. His ability to balance fun with focused instruction is remarkable.

What I appreciate most is how engaged he is with the kids, always offering encouragement and making sure they’re having a great time while learning. It’s not just about mastering the strokes; it’s about fostering a love for swimming, and Coach Kohlton does that perfectly.

My kids absolutely loved their first session, and we’re excited to continue working with him. I have no doubt that with Coach Kohlton's guidance, they’ll continue to grow and improve their skills. We’re truly fortunate to have found such a fantastic coach, and I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a positive and professional swimming experience for their children.
