Anybody know a good swimming instructor in the Boynton Beach/Lake Worth area? Will probably call FAU in Boca to talk to the swimming coach or assistant coach there, but thought I ask here first.

Have you tried the Stroke Doctor? His name is Gary Fahey. He's based in Davie but I know he travels. He comes to Miami once a week - maybe he goes North as well. He's good. Www.strokedocswim.com

Thanks Amy. I will look into it. I saw his page, but it was too far for me. Did not know that he did clinics and lessons off-site. Will look to see if he comes to my part of the world.

On Tuesday May 1 Gary Fahey will be at the Deerfield Beach Aquatic Center pool doing a workshop/clinic for the Boca Triathletes at 6:30 pm.  You can check out the information on the Boca Triathletes facebook page under events.  I believe it is $10 for non members.  You at least see what he has to offer and talk to him about what the options are.  He is teaching total immersion swimming.

 

Also Nikki Alvarez is an option.  She was a swim coach at FAU and recently moved over to Lynn University in Boca.  I took an 8 week class with her that was put together by Boca Triathletes that was very good.  She competes in triathlon as well - she is actally the swim and cross country coach at Lynn.

Let me know if you decide to attend the Deerfield event with Gary.  I will be there.

I will try to make it to the event. I actually registered to Boca Triathletes tonight (before reading this), so will try to join some of the other events/training activities as well. Thanks for the info.
