technique

Education on stroke technique, teaching the “why” behind the changes. We emphasize efficiency and mental engagement during each lesson, in order to apply the changes each day in practice. If you understand the “why”, you’re much more likely to “do”.

starts and turns

Get the early lead and keep your momentum going throughout the race. Starts and turns are like magic tricks, once you know the trick, it’s about practice, practice, practice. We TEACH you the TRICKS!

race preparation

Goal setting, nutrition, proper warm up/warm down, stretching, and all the other areas that contribute to executing in a race. This is about elevating your game and putting all the little pieces together in order to reach your goals

our mission

Teach swimmers of all ages and abilities how to BREAKOUT to the next level

Olympian, Simon Burnett, and World Champion, Whitney Myers

Simon and Whitney retired from professional swimmers in 2012 and created LA BOSS CLUB in order to pass on their knowledge and passion for the sport. Simon and Whitney both know the value of having technically sound strokes. Good technique not only prevents injuries but can also allow for drastic time improvements. With one-on-one instruction, swimmers are able to receive the feedback they don’t often receive at a club or masters workout. At L.A. BOSS CLUB, we provide immediate feedback and personalized drills based on the weaknesses we see in each swimmer’s stroke. We welcome swimmers of all ages and abilities, from age group to masters, that are looking to BREAKOUT to the next level!

Meet the Coaches

World class swimmers pass on their knowledge to the next generation

Whitney Myers Burnett

World Champion, Previous American Record Holder, 2007 NCAA Woman of the Year

“As the shortest swimmer on my college team, I was always looking for ways to compete against girls that were taller and stronger than me”

Simon Burnett

3-Time Olympian, previous NCAA Record Holder, Commonwealth Games Champion

“I’ve always been a student of the sport, constantly looking for ways to move through the water faster and with less energy”

Testimonials

“Whitney and Simon have been incredibly positive role models for my son. They have been able to effectively connect with him and teach him the importance of attention to detail in his strokes, starts, turns, and underwaters, all resulting in faster times. They are both gracious, generous, and thoughtful champions.”

Colleen Kelly

Triathlete and swim coach, mother of Ian, 10 year old age group swimmer

“Both Simon and Whitney are very professional instructors who are technically knowledgeable, with a fine eye to detail, that have enabled my daughter to improve her strokes beyond the club instruction level. They are always very enthusiastic and encouraging in their instruction, which has transferred to my daughter. While their instructions are always clear and succinct, the fact that both can demonstrate exactly what improvements they are looking for is wonderful for kids who require a more visual form of learning.”

Dana Hansen

mother of Lexie, 13 year old age group swimmer

“You or your kids could not be placed in better hands. I swam with Simon and Whitney for 6 years at the University of Arizona and training and competing with them has allowed me to get ot know their character—what makes them outstanding mentors, teachers, and friends. Whatever they do, they do it whole-heartedly. I have seen it with their own swimming and now they inject their passion for the sport into others.”
