Bruce Thalheimer used to give aerobatics courses in his Pitts S2C at Naples airport.
I flew with him a few years back, but I don't know if he's still around. Might be worth giving Naples Air Centre a call though.
I can very highly recommend the course, if it's still available

ONLY ONE PLACE TO GO
Some years ago, I met Patty Wagstaff. Five times US Champion and a really nice girl.
I wanted to do some aeros trg whilst I was in Florida on business, so asked Patty who she'd recommend.......
Keoki Gray - absolutely!, was her very afirmative response.
I have since been to see Keoki several times and have recommended him to at least three other guys that have been over to fly with him and all of them have returned to see him again!
Keoki
He instructs in an S2A and prices are very competitive! He also has access to good acomodation if self catering appeals more than hotels.
I do not think that you will be dissapointed

I have no fiduciary connection with this business but feel free to pm me for my credentials

Pompano Beach used to be the place to go, but the website says that they are "temporally closed due (to) maintenance". That might now be out of date, you may wish to send them an email just to be sure.

Just to add a coda to this thread, in the end for logistical reasons we went to Indiantown airport (X51, NW of W Palm Beach), and did a course given by Jim Alsip in a Super Decathlon. Jim is at [email protected]. We found him very satisfactory and would recommend him to others.
Cheers
