    My daughter is 4 and she has had previous lessons but couldn't get over putting her face in the water (and the other place encourage it). When we first started to attend she would start crying the night before and throughout getting ready, through the car ride and through the entire lesson. After talking to the coaches we decided to increase to 3 times a week with different coaches each day. For a month or 2. This helped so much. After just 2 classes she started looking forward to it and asking when her next class was. Each teacher is different but every single one she's had has been awesome. Do yourself a favor and start here and start early and star here.

    So I wanted to leave a review for a while but it wasn't until this morning that I knew exactly what I wanted to write. My daughter fell in the pool (she is a little over a year) she immediately held her breath and turned to her back. If it was not for the skills she learned Aqua Tots Swim Lessons it could have been a different scenario. Her dad was sitting there watching her so he was able to immediately grab her out. This just shows even with adult supervision anything can happen in a split second. Swim lessons are a must if you have a pool Or live by a large water area like a pond. Aqua Tots Swim Lessons can help you and coach Jannel (sorry if I spelled that wrong) is the best!!! We started going when baby girl was about five months old of course during the pandemic we weren't able to go but the lessons we got so far are amazing.

    My daughter is 3 and has never been in a pool after the age of 6 months. We knew it was time for her to learn to swim so I checked around Groupon and was familiar with this area so we decided to sign up for six lessons at Aqua-Tots Ahwatukee. So far Lizzie and Megan are wonderful with our daughter. She didn't even cry when they approached her and brought her straight into the pool area. In 2 lessons she is already going underwater and learning to kick. It's scary for a first-time parent to watch but I feel 100% comfortable with the staff here and their expertise. I know my child is in good hands and her learning a life-saving skill is more important than my anxiety. There are snacks and soda for sale, free lollipops after class if you want, small play area for your other children and blow dryer bathing suit dryers in the locker area. Also free Wi-Fi for waiting parents. Update: We are so pleased with our daughter's progress, we have formally enrolled her! -fionas mom

    Awesome place to learn how to swim

    Nancy has been great to work with! She is literally the reason why I've overcome my fear of being…read morein the water. Having worked with her for about three months, I am able to get in the water and feel comfortable swimming. By no means am I a professional just yet, seeing that I could only work with her for about three months because I am currently experiencing a challenging pregnancy and have had to postpone my lessons until after I deliver, but I am confident her skills, patience, and instruction will eventually get me there once I continue on with my lessons post-delivery. Overall I would highly recommend Nancy to anybody because of her experience and expertise. She is the only person I trust. My son has been taking swimming lessons with her as well, and is able to dive right into a pool and swim without any hesitation. He loves swimming!

    Nancy aka "Miss Mermaid" has been helping train our daughter in competitive swimming for the past…read moreseveral years. Her speed and technique are improving in every stroke with every lesson, and we're seeing the results in her times at meets. She evaluates at each lesson, then focuses on what she sees as an area for improvement which can improve time and/or efficiency. She's also very good about making recommendations for cardio and resistance training exercises, and which muscle groups on which to focus effort, in order to directly benefit swimming, and which local swim teams could be a good fit for further improvement. If your child/pre-teen/teen, or you as a competitive adult in Ironman or other training, want a top-class, no-nonsense instructor with the experience and active involvement in the sports, you need look no further. She will be straight forward with your swimmer on what they need to do to improve, but doesn't push it past the point of being "over the top" like some of the instructors we tried tend to do. She knows how to be tough, and nice about it. She's inspirational rather than threatening. We did try the rest, and have been very fortunate to find Nancy.

    My 5 year old son recently completed one semester (8 lessons) with Taydem. He is naturally more…read morereserved and slow to warm up to new people. He started with very little swim skills and had always been a bit fearful of the water. Taydem made him feel super comfortable and he looked forward to lessons with her each day. She was always very friendly and professional while also making the lessons fun for him! The techniques she used were easy for him to catch on to and remember. I am very pleased to say his safety and comfortability in the water improved greatly over the course of his lessons! We will be doing another semester this summer just to allow him more time to build upon the skills he has learned. Overall, our experience with Kidtastics has been great and we would highly recommend them and Taydem!

    We had an incredible experience with Kidtastics, specifically our instructor Tori Fraga. We decided…read moreto commit to two weeks of 1:1 swim lessons at our home for 2 weeks, (8 lessons, 30 mins each), because despite almost 2 years of weekly group swim lessons at local swim schools, I wasn't confident my 5-year old was truly water safe. I worried about her overconfidence in the pool (thinking she could swim because of the lessons), yet not knowing how to get herself to the side of the pool and out, or swimming without assistance safely. The local swim schools seemed to focus on specific skills like floating on her back and wouldn't target other skills without her doing this, despite her having ear issues that made this very uncomfortable. At the end of the day, that wasn't going to keep her from drowning and I wanted her to be water safe, then start learning strokes. Tori listened to our experience and goals for Michaela and exceeded our expectations. By the end of two weeks, Michaela was not only completely water safe (able to swim to the side of the pool and get out without assistance), but also learned freestyle, backstroke and butterfly, two types of dives and able to dive for items at the bottom of the pool without issue. After the lessons concluded, Michaela swam in our pool for 45 mins with zero support and even practiced strokes and dives. This level of skill would have taken years of weekly lessons and much more money spent in a swim school. This was absolutely worth the investment and daily time commitment for two weeks. Michaela and our whole family adores Tori; her enthusiasm for swimming and teaching was palpable. She built a lasting relationship, connection and impact on Michaela, beyond just advancing her swimming skills. Thank you, Kidtastics and Tori!! We would recommend Kidtastics to any family with a child that has any level of swim goals.

Class is free for infants under 5 months, so this was what drew us to AquaSafe in the first place. I had no idea what to expect, but I was excited to find a free activity to do with my 3-month old. From the first class we attended, I was super impressed with how much was packed into a 30-minute time slot and how each activity supported our babies' development. In the two months that I had my daughter in this class, she has become much more comfortable and confident in the water. A huge shoutout to coach Steven! He was absolutely wonderful with each of the babies in class. Every session, he took the time to give individual attention and support to each baby, customizing the experience for their age and skill level. He had a great amount of knowledge about exactly how to modify activities to accommodate both younger and older babies. Steven made this such a fun and educational experience for everyone involved!

Not once did manager apologize to me or my son they simply said your son wasn't on the schedule and this child was.

The worst experience ever when returning to this location.
