Joel is a terrific instructor! He met us at our friend’s pool for 1:1 lessons with our 18mo old son. Our son screamed bloody murder for the first 5 lessons, but that didn’t deter Joel at all. He was professional but kind and gentle, and our son ended the sessions knowing how to handle himself in an emergency pool situation. He could even swim to the side and grab the side of the pool by the last lesson. Incredible! Nothing is more important than safety, and water safety is a must.

Joel is such an amazing teacher! He is reliable, professional and made my kids extremely comfortable in the water. I feel so much better knowing they know how to swim with our pool in the backyard, lessons were right in the comfort of our home! I highly recommend him if you’re looking to learn or enhance your swimming skills.

Coach Joel has been working with our 4 year old on swim lessons over the past several months. Our son went from being a shy, tentative swimmer before working with Joel, to a confident water bug. He now loves swimming and asks to go in the pool daily. Joel has done an amazing job of meeting our son where he is at and creating lessons, games, activities, etc., to help our son progress in his swimming ability while having fun. We could not have asked for a better swim coach! Highly recommend this program!

Living in Florida, it’s important that our kids knew how to swim and that because more urgent once we purchased a house with a pool. My girls loved having Joel teach them how to swim. One sweet child of mine was anti-pool and wanted to make the rules but she loved swimming by the end of our lesson package. The other child was very enthusiastic but unfortunately not strong enough- Joel helped her built a great foundation that we were able to build on and now I have 2 great pool swimmers. I would highly recommend this company for swim instruction.

My 7-year-old daughter had Joel and he is the most kind, encouraging and professional coach that we ever had. My daughter had enjoyed every moment of her learning journey and has improved with every lesson. She already joins a swim team. But she still wants to take Joel’s class. I highly recommend Inhale Exhale Swim!

Joel has been an absolute gem. My 6 year old daughter went from no swimming abilities to swimming safely in just one month. My 4 year old daughter is a tough cookie who was terrified, but Joel knew just how to handle her. A perfect blend of tough love to get my kids safely swimming. We just started lessons for my 20 month old, but he is the baby whisperer. He sings to her, and even though she doesn’t really WANT to get in the water without us, she is 100% comfortable with him and trusts him. He got her pretty much floating on her back in just 3-4 lessons. I would HIGHLY recommend him!

Had a few communication hiccups, mostly at the beginning, but Joel was able to get both of my kids from very beginner-level swimmers to very strong, confident swimmers in under 6 weeks. My 7 yo had 4 previous summers' worth of lessons through another program; my 3 yo had only had one, all prior to the pandemic. Even my 3 yo, who loved being in the water but had essentially no skills, is now able to swim the length of our oversized pool. Both of them now freely jump in, my 7 yo actually enjoys diving to the bottom now, and as a parent I feel comfortable with the kids in the pool while I watch them from the kitchen window. We go in the pool almost daily, and I love their enthusiasm for swimming now. Joel was always very patient and calm with the kids (even when they weren't). Thank you so much, Joel, for creating strong, confident swimmers!

Joel has been amazing for our daughter who swam with him over the summer from 1.5-2 years old! She is now comfortable and confident in the water after her lessons! I love how Joel works so great with any age group and adapts his lessons to met the needs of each student! We will be continuing out lessons next summer and adding our 1 year old son! Highly Recommend!
