Awesome swim school! Great location to where I live. The instructors are always nice. My son really loves coming here and has been doing so for about two years now. The facility is clean and spacious. And they have a full viewing area so you can see all the lanes. The prices are very fair and competitive. Im happy we switched to this school.

Hi there just wanted to say how content we are with goldfish swim school they are outstanding staff and friendly and attentive not to mention the instructors they are very good and knowledgeable i definitely see my child learning since we started i can’t not express how happy we are to have found gold fish swim school. During this hard time of Covid-19 they have been great at following cdc guidelines they take everyone’s temperature before entering, mask is required for all. Very welcoming school highly recommended

ANNA was amazing! Made my little boy swim like an angler fish super fast! After swimming for a week, my sons traps are huge after Anna’s amazing swimming. Amazing service seriously, do not hesitate because if you want your kid to swim. Sign them up gold fish school and ask for Anna :)))

We love Goldfish! Coach Dustin has been wonderful with my son. He is knowledgeable, encouraging, and does a fantastic job explaining the skills in a way that a 5 year old would understand. My son’s swimming has greatly improved since we started with Goldfish.

Very professional place, great for kids to learn swimming with wide range of levels. Max 3 kids by lessons, often less. My child progressed a lot and is now very comfortable in water (lessons once a week no other contact with pool in 4 months evolved from knowing nothing and not wanting to swim to knowing swimming alone, diving, floating both side, glide and all small basics). Excellent management of the covid re-opening period.

This swim school is amazing! It is an extremely nice and professional facility. All of the areas are modern and clean, there is plenty of seating to view the lessons, and the front desk is very well organized. Snow is a wonderful and patient swim instructor! She has taught my 9 year old daughter each of the swim skills very well, and is very positive and detail oriented. She also really cares about the kids and wants them to improve. There are occasional meets on the weekend that you can bring the kids to so they can compete and improve their times. They can also win ribbons and medals and then there is pizza and cookies after. When your child completes all of the skills successfully, they reward your child so he or she feels a huge sense of accomplishment. They also have a swim team to continue the progress so your child can continue to practice and get better. I feel overall this is a very quality place of business and that is hard to find these days.

As a school for kids, making sure that the team is family oriented and kid focused was our biggest emphasis. We were extremely happy to have been referred here. Our boy absolutely loves it here and I’ll be telling everyone at my church youth group about it. David is his coach and he has such a way with kids that makes all of us super comfortable. Keep up the great work guys!

I took my niece to get lessons and they did a really good job getting her used to the water especially his teacher Abby! She said a great job considering how afraid my niece is of the water. Abby was great at communicating with my niece and in telling me how she’s improved and what she needs to work on. Abby was extremely patient with my little niece and she really took her time. I would definitely recommend Abby she was amazing!

I absolutely love how professional and clean this facility is. Definitely am sad that the kids cant go during the city shutdown, but of course safety comes first. Ms. Snow does a wonderful job teaching my little one. He always feels so happy and confident after the lesson. Cant wait until the facility is back open.

Goldfish swim school is a great school for lessons. They are progress oriented and will focus on skills that are needed to successfully move your child to the next level.

We have been taking swim lessons here for my 3-year-old toddler since January of 2020. The staff is always super polite, and the scheduling is very easy and flexible. They offer lessons for a great range of skill levels, and they willingly find a lesson frequency that fits you and your family. Mr. Oscar is my childs teacher, and he is very patient and kind with a three-year-olds whims. I would highly recommend this place to anyone with young children for their swim lessons!

A great swim school for those who have no swim experience. I highly recommend as my 3 year old child was able to learn safety skills. She’s able to jump in and swim back to the wall and Xavier goes beyond to ensure my child’s safety. We love this swim school and highly recommend for those who want to make sure their child is safe in any pool environment.

My son started swim classes here when he was 8 months old. He loves Miss Emily and he has already learned a lot in a couple of months with just a weekly class. We love the family swim time also! Their classes are small and the facility is super clean. They have a private bathroom where he and I can shower after class and I feel really comfortable bringing him here.

Goldfish is a great kid friendly place. Shout out to Coach David K for being very patient with the kids and always finding ways to make learning how to swim fun. I just know they enjoy going and always request him. Thank you for your patience.

Review №41

I love the consistency of the schedule of classes, the play area and changing rooms are great. I would love if we could have more regularity of teachers in the classes though so my toddler could feel comfortable with them. Of the 9 mini 2 classes we’ve attended in 2 months, we’ve had 6 different instructors. But all in all, our son (2.5 years old) has gotten more comfortable in the water and is showing some stronger safety and swimming skills after just 2 months. I would say though he wasn’t so keen on lessons for the first 5 weeks, but we stayed consistent and now he pretty well enjoys it though some days is less enthused than others.

Review №43

Goldfish has been a great experience for my daughter! She was not very fond of the water and would often times be very anxious. Luckily we found coach David and he has been so wonderful in building my daughters confidence in the water! Great facility it’s clean and tidy.

Review №44

Clean, welcoming, fun, lots of good young families, always a generous coloring pad or bath toy available at the door. The facility spared no expense on making it a fun, clean environment. There is plenty of staff available to coordinate things. The only druther is that the progress is relatively slow, or delicate. Eventually I talked to the instructor and said look I know he is scared but its time we start forcing him through his troubles. After that, boom ,we are literally jumping off the dock and swimming full laps across the pool, face in the water, within two weeks. I encourage you to speak to the instructor if you are disappointed and they will work with you. TV,s showers, hairdryers, bathrooms and changing rooms available there. His teacher’s name is SNOW and she is helpful, caring, encouraging and enjoys being a part of his lesson every week.

Recently i took my son for lessons hoping to see some improvement from his last school. He told me he had so much fun and wanted to ce back for his next lesson. His teacher Gabriela was very welcoming and made him feel comfortable around the other kids in his class. Overall the school was clean and convenient.

Love this place. Weve been to other swim schools in the area and none have given us the results that Goldfish has. Jessica is the best! Shes shown lots of patience working with my son to get him over his fear of the water and swimming, in fact, he continues to beg us to take him back to the pool - THANK YOU JESSICA! Could not be happier.
