I was pleasantly surprised by the superior work quality that went beyond my expectations. The clear instructions and excellent communication ensured that I witnessed positive outcomes. The guidance, which I had paid for, not only promoted my learning but also distinguished itself from the various trainers I had previously worked with. I highly recommend this service.

Elton comes highly recommended as a thoughtful and knowledgeable swimming teacher who prioritizes consideration, awareness, patience, responsiveness, and respect. Despite a fear of water and debilitating physical conditions, including slipped discs in the lower back and intense sciatic nerve pain, Elton successfully guided the writer through constructive lessons that led to mastery of swimming in just three months of twice-weekly sessions and consistent personal practice. As a result, they no longer suffer from pain, have lost weight, and developed lean, strong muscles. The writer now enjoys swimming and diving with confidence and excitement. For anyone seeking to conquer their fear of water, gain strength and health, and adopt a balanced lifestyle, Elton is unequivocally recommended as an outstanding swimming teacher.

I cannot express how impressed I am with Elton Santamaría. With his guidance in personal training, I am achieving great results. The exercises were tailored to my abilities, and we gradually increased the difficulty level. I feel stronger and healthier, and I highly endorse him.

My children and I have had the pleasure of working with Elton for both swimming lessons and personal training, and I cannot speak highly enough of him. When teaching my 7-year-old twins, Elton exuded kindness and patience, making the lessons not only effective but also fun and enjoyable. My kids looked forward to their weekly swimming sessions with him. As my personal trainer, Elton continues to amaze me with his ability to push me beyond my limits and help me discover newfound strength. He is always punctual and organized, going above and beyond by generously offering extra time during each session. I highly recommend Elton's services to both children and adults alike. He is an incredible teacher and motivator who truly cares about his clients' progress.

Elton has become like an older brother figure to me. We continue to train and swim together, and he consistently supports my fitness goals, with patience and encouragement. His perspective on swimming goes beyond just the physical aspect, emphasizing the importance of the mental component and understanding my body's relationship with water. Elton's friendly, punctual, easy-going, consistent, and humorous nature makes him an excellent trainer and friend. I highly recommend him because of the positive impact he has had on my fitness journey. I have been training and swimming with him since May or June 2022 and have no regrets!
