About
Swim Lessons & Swim Coaching Over the past 12 years of being in business, our focus has been to get clients of all ages comfortable in the water, master all swim strokes and achieve complete confidence as a swimmer. The ultimate thrill of helping people achieve their goal is combined with our ability to motivate people & patiently assure them to trust themselves in the water. We help clients of all ages: children as young as 10 months, toddlers, young kids & teenagers, all the way up to adults & elders. We specialize with all skill levels in the water: beginners who may not be comfortable yet or lack the experience, those simply wanting to learn how to swim better than before & even people who have had a traumatic experience at some point in their lives and have developed a fear of the water. We also help advanced swimmers such as Tri-athletes, Competitive Swimmers, Free-divers or even future Law Enforcement & Military members that need to perfect certain strokes or are interested in a training program to work on speed & endurance. We work out of a large heated pool in Lantana with a beach style shallow end which is perfect for beginners, a deep end to prepare folks for open water/survival situations & a large area to swim laps & master all strokes. We also offer travel packages for any clients that prefer having lessons at their pool of choice. Here are our combined many years of experience in the water: 8 years of Competitive Swimming up to the Collegiate Level (Swim Captain of 2 teams), 24 years of Surfing all over the world, 20 years of Spearfishing/Free-diving & 3 years as an Ocean Rescue Life Guard. We’re excited to get to know someone who is willing to put forth consistent effort, trust the process and accomplish their goals together! **Cancellation Policy** Lessons are confirmed the day before with your instructor. If a change needs to be made, the instructor must be notified the day before during regular business hours to avoid a cancellation fee. Failure to notify the day before will result in a fee which is about half of the lesson price. Hope you understand time is very valuable and slots are limited!

I highly recommend Ben as a swim coach. From the very beginning, he has been incredibly professional, patient, and knowledgeable. Every lesson has been well organized, and he takes the time to understand my individual needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach. One thing that has impressed me the most is how he identified my weaknesses and created a plan to help me improve them. Instead of rushing through techniques, Ben carefully explained what I was doing incorrectly, demonstrated the proper form, and gave me practical drills that built my confidence and skills step by step. His attention to detail and ability to tailor his coaching to my specific challenges have made a tremendous difference in my progress. Breathing was one of my biggest struggles, and Ben did an outstanding job teaching me the correct breathing techniques. He broke everything down into simple, manageable steps, making it much easier to understand the timing and rhythm of breathing while swimming. He also showed me how to move through the water more efficiently by improving my body position, stroke mechanics, and overall technique. As a result, I feel much more comfortable, relaxed, and confident in the water than I ever have before. What really sets Ben apart is his professionalism, encouragement, and genuine commitment to helping his students succeed. He creates a positive learning environment where it's easy to ask questions and continue improving without feeling discouraged. His expertise is obvious, and he has a great ability to communicate even complex techniques in a way that's easy to understand. Because of the excellent experience I've had, I fully intend to continue working with Ben and will also be having him work with my wife and teenage daughter. I have complete confidence in his expertise and know they will benefit from his patient, personalized coaching just as I have. I highly recommend Ben to anyone looking for a skilled, professional swim coach who truly cares about helping his students become better, more confident swimmers.

Ben has been extremely supportive and patient with our girls, ages 3 and 5. He works to build their confidence in the pool by teaching them several techniques appropriate to their skill level. Our five year old was already swimming independently within the first couple weeks. The girls really enjoy their time with Ben and we are very fortunate to have found him.

I am a 68 year old man with limited mobility who could not even float. Thanks to Ben's patience and expertise i can now float, swim, tread and am growing more capable and confident daily. His rates are reasonable, and he has a way about him that put me at ease instantly. I highly recommend him as a swim instructor. Thanks Ben!
