Your instructor Mary on Thursday at 12pm is amazing! My son had his first class a month ago, he spent the first 15 minutes sobbing because it was the first time he was in the pool without me and he was scared. Mary was so patient and kind, she worked with Isaac and now, he loves going to swimming lessons. He has learned so much in just a month and the joy he gets from these lessons melts my heart. Thank you! ️

3 yr old Daughter goes to swimming lessons here, its a clean environment and teachers are attentive. Its been 5 months and my daughter moved up one class, and moved her only when she passed all the swimming lessons in Jr.1 class. They have toys out for kids waiting to start lessons or for the siblings watching which is super nice. Easy to check in with key card that attaches to keys, you swipe it when you walk in the door. They sell swimsuits for baby - to older kid, towels, goggles, backpacks and you get a free goldfish swim school shirt and thin plastic swim bag when you join. They have 7 swim lanes with classes going on at both ends of the lanes sometimes, but everything runs smoothly. Seems like theres a max of about 4 kids per class which is nice. Big swim area for adults with their babies. Hair drying station, changing diaper station (with diapers and wipes) available, and a swimsuit fast drying machine, 10 open showers in by the pool area and also a private shower in the bathroom.I do recommend Goldfish swim school to anyone looking to teach their child how to swim!

We have two girls who just started taking lessons here and I am very impressed with the small class sizes! The facility itself is very clean and organized. Management was VERY helpful when it came to scheduling lessons and responds quickly. The staff is very friendly also and my girls can’t wait to go back next week.

My three boys have been taking swim lessons here for almost 2 years and have had a great experience. All three have made significant improvements in their abilities and best of all, love to be in the water now!

Schedule flexibility - I like you can start at anytime and that if we cant make it to our usual class we can do a makeup class another time in the week.

FOLLOW-UP 1/30: I wanted to add that Goldfish went above and beyond to help one of my children level up. An underlying health issue was preventing him from mastering one of the required skills, so the Goldfish teams creative thinking thought of techniques that could help him and worked one-on-one to make sure he passed. His instructor was so genuinely happy when he leveled up. He is becoming a strong swimmer thanks to Goldfish, and my other little fish is not far behind (with another amazing, invested instructor).Ive been quite pleased with Goldfish so far. The staff is kind and positive. The pace is fast so my child has no time to get distracted or lollygag. The class sizes are small (4 or less) which means tons of one-to-one time. He advanced more in two classes than an entire season with the Rec Department. Weve been there about a month and a half. My middle child starts tonight also. I have no doubt they will be swimming like goldfish by next summer. :)

Very friendly environment. Teachers are good. Heated pool is a definite advantage; specially during winters when there are not much options for outdoor sports.

Requires masks of parents who are watching their students but not the students. not everyone can wear a mask or should wear a mask. They did not communicate this to us when we signed up for swim lessons there.

The instruction is solid and the facilities are great. But the best part are the teachers and staff.My son was having a super hard time with a change in teachers (he moved up in skill level) but the manager ended up getting in the water to give my son the one on one attention he needed that day. She did this without any hesitation and without making my son or myself feel bad about the situation.I have already recommended this place to lots of people.

I have been so impressed with Goldfish Swim School! We started my daughter here about 2 months ago and the progress shes made in that time is remarkable! The value of this program is far better than any other swimming class shes taken. The instructors are fantastic and really push the kids to keep progressing! The facilities are clean, organized and very easy to use! I would absolutely recommend Goldfish to anyone looking for swimming lessons!

My child is on the autism spectrum and requires a ton of patience. It takes him awhile to build confidence in new activities and with new people. Goldfish swim school has been in awesome in reaching out to work with me to best accommodate my child. His teacher, Madeson, has been awesome! We live 50 minutes away from Goldfish swim school but it is worth the drive for the weekly lesson.

Not only does my kid enjoy just swimming here but he is actually learning legitimate swimming skills and even what to do when falling in and getting out of a pool. All teachers we have had have been great.

Pool is warm and so is the pool area. Love that my kid doesn’t turn blue at swim class. So far instruction is good, but pretty much the same quality as the WAC. I will update if this changes. You pay $20 initiation fee and then it is a monthly fee after that. Monthly fee gives your entire family access to open swim. Classes seem to run continuously, so I believe you can join at anytime.

My son loves the staff and is always excited as soon as he walks in the door. I love the family swim time where I can spend time with him and work on what his instructors say he needs help with.(Plus have fun) To see him smile and progress right before your eyes is priceless. It’s going on a year and we love going at least 2-3 times a week.

I appreciate the 4 to 1 student to coach ratio. This provides a good amount of focus on my child and their swim time with the coach. Also, the warm water makes it nice for my children. I also really like the update from the coach on each childs progress, what they need to work on, and what they are doing well. My children really look forward to going to swim class here!

This facility is so clean, well decorated, and has included lots of little things to make our time at swim class easier and more enjoyable. Love that we dont have to wait for someone to check-in (we just scan our key card); my younger son enjoys the train table, kitchen set, chalkboard and fish tank while older brother is in his lesson; I really appreciate the progress report that the teacher provides at the end of class; the showers have quality shampoo; there are goggles to borrow; clean changing rooms; swimsuit drying machines; a hair drying area; diaper changing area; and my swimmer gets a little reward out of the treasure chest on his way out! All of these little extras dont even compare to how awesome it is that my son is learning to swim in a very small group setting with an interested, enthusiastic instructor. We love Goldfish Swim School in Brookfield!

Our children have learned so much here and we are constantly impressed! My three and four-year-old are able to swim a full length of a lane without stopping. We have taken lessons elsewhere and have always left feeling like we didn’t have much progress, But here it is visible every week!

My grandsons have really become much more confident in the water and are able to swim short distances by themselves after only 5 lessons.

Review №27

I have so much praise for Goldfish! My son has had a lot of anxiety surrounding swim lessons, and the staff and instructors have done everything possible to help him on his way to becoming a successful swim student. With every hiccup, they have been more than accommodating to offer us all support or even bank the lesson so we dont miss out. Staff and instructors are always very nice and helpful, and I have seen them go above and beyond to help any child that needs some extra attention. While the cost is more than your local gym, the flexibility they offer, structured and consistent class work, amenities and welcoming environment are well worth the extra cost. They do a lot with community engagement and really make it fun environment for kids and families. I appreciate that they dont skimp on staff, and there are always additional life guards keeping extra eyes on the kids. This is the best place for kids swim lessons and I highly, highly recommend.

Both the kids and myself love it here. Love that the pool as well as pool area is nice and warm. They provide shampoo and soap by the showers so that’s one less thing to pack. Blow dryers too. Private dressing rooms make it comfortable for everyone to change before and after. Friendly staff also.

In less than 2 months my daughter went from terrified of water to putting her head under water on her own and learning to swim! Her instructor, Boris, is so kind, patient, and encouraging. The facility is GORGEOUS with all the amenities you could possibly want. Membership is pricey but totally worth it for the small class sizes and superior swimming instruction.

“My children now love to swim! One of my boys has a hard time putting ears in the water and the instructors worked inndividually with him to help him boost his confidence and skills to help him be successful. Ive recommended Goldfish to MANY of my friends with children.„

Even though classes are only 1/2 hr, I feel like my child gets a lot of time to swim and practice with the instructor becuase of the small class sizes-which our child really loves. Instructors are so patient and kind, the facilities are clean and very well laid out. The pool water is so warm, and family swim times are really fun too! Thank you for a great swim experience!
