Wow! I learned to swim in a month!!!…read more Learning how to swim has been on my bucket list for many years. As a grown adult with friends who like water sports and going to the beach, not knowing how to swim has always been socially awkward. I was also so nervous when I took my child to the pool that I really didn't enjoy it. I really wanted to learn to swim and group lessons did not work with my schedule. I was able to commit 4 weeks to learning how to swim and took three sets of private lessons during this time. Leslie was super flexible with the time and days of my private lessons. Leslie has a natural gift to teach people how to swim. I was so nervous about putting my face in the water and would get super anxious. Leslie took her time with my breathing while still moving forward with other elements of learning how to swim. While I still have a ways to go to be a strong swimmer, the fact that I can even get in an Olympic pool without a flotation device or flippers and actually move my way through the water...with my face in the water...is pretty awesome. I look forward to continuing occasional lessons so that I can get even better.

I've had swimming lessons sporadically in the past. Maybe I was just a tad bit more ready today?!…read moreNot really, I didn't want to leave the wall & would've been content practicing breathing today for my entire lesson. I was urged off the wall a few times by Coach Chris and the woman over the program (I think) & finally let go. Coach Chris is a great coach! He encouraged me & was very patient as I hesitantly followed his direction. I actually did 2 laps w/ the noodle focusing on kicks and breathing! That's the most progress I've had in a swim class in a 30-minute lesson! I guess I should note, this was a private lesson and previously I've taken group lessons. Either way, I gained the most progress and satisfaction from this one class than I have in the 4 group classes I've taken twice. I can't wait to see my progress at the end of the classes. The showers and changing areas are clean and adequate. Everyone from the front desk staff to the other personnel were friendly.

We had a great experience with Swim Dynamo for several years and HIGHLY recommend Coach Martha and…read moreTom. Unfortunately, the club did not handle an injury well with our daughter as she became a more advanced swimmer. Her "new" coach was more intent on the team winning than earning the trust and respect that a good coach would usually deserve. Which includes creating a welcoming culture, telling athletes to listen to their bodies and ensuring that he/she is PATIENT. We changed clubs as a result of Joey and had no problem doing so as every other coach was very happy to work with a high performance young teenager and help her get "competition ready." Coaching is a seminal component in a teenager's life and we did not feel comfortable with his attitude or interactions with the kids. Mike seems like a great CEO, but not well-informed by the coaching staff -that could be a result of the head coach who we never heard a word from. I would make sure to spend time talking to the coaches before picking Dynamo, depending on the child's age.

There are many things we have loved about Dynamo. My oldest is 17 and my youngest is 14. They…read morehave been in Dynamo lessons at Chamblee and then part of the club at Oakhurst for almost their entire lives. Out of the blue (or perhaps not so out of the blue because it was literally the day the Oakhurst Coach gave birth), Dynamo eliminated its high school program at Oakhurst with 3 weeks notice. No goodbye to the old coach, leading to sobbing and angry teens. The also not so best part was that they offered a 4pm practice when high school kids in this area get out at 3:45 6 miles away from the new location. Not sure if this was pregnancy discrimination or just awfulness/rudeness, but Dynamo has changed. I did try to reach out to the head coach and got a nasty note back from the Board Chair. You can't count on them to offer consistency, which I think was a hard lesson for my kids and for me since that's what they claim to sell. The City of Decatur should definitely take the Oakhurst pool back from Dynamo.

Our daughter has been attending weekly 30-minute lessons at Atlanta Swim Academy for nearly six…read moremonths, and the progress has been remarkable. She started at the Trigger Fish level, advanced to Sea Lions, and just recently graduated to Manta Rays. The academy's structured approach--requiring specific skills to be mastered at each stage--has clearly paid off. She's athletic and attentive, and the instructors have done a fantastic job channeling those strengths into steady improvement. Each level seems to take her about 5-6 weeks to complete, which speaks volumes about both her effort and the academy's teaching methods. With only two levels left after Manta Rays, she's well on her way to being ready for our HOA's competitive summer swim team, which runs six intense weeks with six tournaments. The difference in her confidence and ability in the water is easy to see. Honestly, I may not be able to swim away from her when she chases me in the pool next summer! Watching her master the different strokes has been exciting, and I'm grateful for the academy's clear progression system and supportive environment. Atlanta Swim Academy has been a wonderful investment in her growth, and I highly recommend it to any family looking to build strong swimming skills in a fun, structured way.
