My kids becoming strong swimmers is paramount for our ocean centered lives on Maui. And I cannot tell you how thankful I am for finding Auntie Benae! My kid’s have improved so quickly and they have loved every minute of it!

“We love Auntie Benae and Uncle Rockett! They are the best! They are so much fun and awesome with the kids! My 2 boys (ages 4 & 2) started taking lessons a few months ago and have learned so much in that time. They are totally comfortable in the water now and continue to improve. They really look forward and love coming to class every week! We’ll keep coming til they’re teenagers if we can! I am so proud of them and confident in their swimming skills and it’s all thanks to Little Honu Swim School! :)

Auntie Benae is THE BEST! My daughter started with her at 5, usually wanting to swim with a life jacket, not a strong swimmer, not comfortable in the water. She has thrived with Benae. She has become an excellent swimmer and extremely comfortable in the water either in the ocean or our pool. Benae’s ability to work with kids and know what they need is amazing. My two year old is in classes as well and improving weekly. Living in Hawaii, it’s our obligation as parents to make sure our kids can swim for their safety and Little Honu swim school is the spot!

Swimming lessons at Little Honu Swim School are the best!

Auntie B, is an amazing teacher, I can’t tell enough good things about her teaching, she is fun with the kids, but has a great way of getting them to listen and stay focused, it worked so well for my 5y old daughter. My girl made such huge progress in swimming and most of all gained so much confidence in the water, especially in the ocean. I am so amazed to see her swimming at the beach by herself and she is so proud every time she improves her abilities, she feels so comfortable with Auntie B that she always wants to do more and get better. I love that.

Lessons are 30min, perfect timing in my opinion for the kids to stay focused and don’t get too tired. plenty of opportunities to get to know other parents and kids, we are having a really great experience!

Friday swimming lessons is truly our highlight of the week!!!

10/10 recommended!

Auntie Benae is one of the most talented swim instructors I know, on top of being talented she is compassionate and works with the child off of the child’s personality and comfort level. I grew up as a competitive swimmer and when my 4 year old daughter Mia wasn’t learning from me I knew I had to find someone else to teach her. We came across Auntie Benae and it has been the best decision ever! Mia was a lil timid at first with putting her head under, but after a couple Lessons, Benae had her dunking her head and swimming almost the whole length of the pool! We now have my 1 1/2 year old Coco in lessons and she picked up so quickly from

Learning from her big so sister. She’s dunking her head and actually kicking her little legs all without anxiety and taking no water in ! We love Auntie Benae

Brooklynn has been the most amazing swim instructor for our 4 year old! She is the perfect amount of calm and confident, which gives my daughter so much ease when learning new skills. She is always very encouraging and has been able to accommodate kids in the class with various swimming capabilities. My daughter is always excited to get to swimming lessons and seeing Brooklynn is one of her favorite parts!

My daughter started swim lessons with Aunty Benae at one years old. The relationship that she has with her students is something very special. Her trust, love and dedication for our kids and for the safety of swim is what sets her apart from the rest. My son started swim lessons at seven months because we saw the confidence that our daughter gained in the water. Living here it is not an option for our kids to not be comfortable and familiar in the water. We trust Aunty Benae 100% and she has become like family to us.
