Eight years ago today, on the same date as the first solar eclipse in North America in nearly a century, we opened our doors in Deerfield Beach. Cosmic timing, right?
An eclipse is when the everyday light of the world is obscured for just a little while-inviting us to pause, reflect, and reset. That’s exactly what floating is all about. Every time someone steps into a Float8 tank, they eclipse life’s chaos for a while, allowing the body and mind to relax, recover, and reset.
And now, 8 years later, Float8 isn’t just still here-we’re stronger than ever. In a world where many small businesses don’t make it past their first few years, lasting eight is a symbol of strength, staying power, and community support. It’s no accident that “8” is in our name-we’ve always loved our 8s, and today, that number means more than ever.
Since opening, 45,713 people have floated with us 83,967 times… and counting! What began as a family-owned dream has grown into a purpose-driven business with a mission: to help people feel better and perform at their best.
We’ve built a culture anchored by our Core Values:
💙 We Care
💪 We Empower
🧘 We Maintain Chillitude
🌊 We Love Floating!
To our floaters-we’ve laughed with you, cried with you, and shared every emotion in between. To our Team8s-you’ve given hugs, cleaned drains, and even chased salt goblins, all in the name of creating sacred space for transformation.
As we celebrate this milestone under another historic eclipse, we invite you to join us in the next chapter. Right now, during our Membership Drive:
