We have been going here for a few weeks now and having a wonderful experience! We tried so many…read moreother swim schools over the years, including GoldFish, but Safesplash is the first location where my daughter has felt comfortable. The pool size is smaller, as are the class sizes and this helps with comfort level. The staff are exceptional, and the trainers are attentive to each child, though I do wish they would communicate updates to the parents more frequently. As for the location itself, it is very clean and well kept. The waiting area has lots of toys, tables, activity items for kids while they wait for class to start. There are benches for parents to sit and observe the class sessions. The locker room is large, spacious, and again well kept and clean. There are plenty of showers. I do wish they had one more bathing suite dryer though. If you are the parent of a young child in the Montgomery Village area I highly recommended Safesplash. There are a few areas that need improvement, some of which I listed (more bathing suite dryers, more communication post class with instructors), but I am happy to give this business five stars!

The last four out of five Saturdays, this swim school has cancelled our appointments. Today was the…read morefinal straw. After wrestling with my kids, getting them dressed, out the door, and over to the school for their swim lessons, we walked in only to be told again that lessons were cancelled. They sent the cancellation email at 10:30 AM for classes starting at 10:45 AM. That's not enough notice, especially for parents who have to plan their entire morning around this. It's frustrating, it's disruptive, and it's becoming a pattern. When we arrived, two other families were just as upset, so this isn't a one-off issue. This level of unreliability makes it nearly impossible to trust their scheduling or stay committed to their program.

The outdoor pool area has gone through an AMAZING transformation!…read more I first want to say that unfortunately I don't have many pictures. I didn't want to seem rude and make people self conscious by taking pictures with them in it, specially when in bathing suits and lots of young children. With that said, this outdoor pool is beautiful! The parking space is ample. So many places to park. The surrounding area is covered by trees and other outdoor activities including a baseball diamond/field and a very nice skate park. Upon entering, there is a small fee to get in daily. I believe residents receive discount to and there are passes available. As soon as we entered the swimming area, I was really impressed! Plenty of spaces to sit. In the shade, sun, a bit further away, many options. There is a shallow pool with lots of fun activities and slides for the young kids. That pool is 1FT deep and it's perfect for families. There's another pool with a basketball game another cool slide and zip tie pool plunge. On the far right there's an area with the long, tall slides ! These are new and look so fun. A bit further behind is a lap pool with diving boards. Unfortunately we came on a day with poor air quality and they had to close early. But we did enjoy 2 hours worth of swimming. There is an additional indoor pool and we were encouraged to swim there. We decided to go home. There's a confession stand that we didn't get to try and I haven't seen the fitness center yet. I honestly can't wait to come back, best pool in the area. Not too packed, big, fun, plenty to do. Loved !

There was a camp with hundreds and hundreds of children running around. They didn't all listen to the lifeguards. There were no chairs available -- that's on us, we should have come at opening, but it was wildly overcrowded and then another camp with even younger children arrived. My kids are young teen/tween age and excellent swimmers but it's more crowded than a Great Wolf Lodge on a holiday with a lot less supervision. I felt awful for the lifeguards. We'll likely come back on a weekend because the facilities are great but the amount of children vs adults/older teens is honestly hard to imagine and felt very stressful.

The primary goal at Hudson Valley Swim is to teach proper swimming techniques no matter the age of the student. Our swimming lesson programs are for students of all ages and abilities starting as early as 6 months through adult. We maintain small class sizes to ensure the student gets the care and support needed in a fun and safe environment. Our swimming instructors are experienced and are trained to teach all levels, so children don’t have to change instructors as they advance through the levels.

What I like about Life Time is there is no annual contract, so you can do month to month. This location is the best. It has a huge indoor and outdoor pools, large hot tubs and decent Life Time cafe. Their work out area is huge compared to the Potomac location. Yes, this place is expensive. I am paying close to $500 a month for a family of four, so we take full advantage of their facilities. In addition to the pools, they have pickleball classes/sessions/open play, pilates, basketball, cycling and various other classes and such.

He very much enjoys the flexible practice schedule and is swimming better than he ever has. We have no regrets and cannot thank Joe and his staff enough. I really don't understand these 1 star reviews and I would ignore them and give JFD a try.

Before deciding to go here, I'd like you to think about one word: RULES…read more This splash park has a LOT of them, and I do mean a LOT. You can't exit, even if you forgot something at your car. You can't bring in water bottles with water in them. No jewelry or even an Apple Watch on the slides. I forgot my phone in the car, and was only allowed to get it when the manager escorted me. The workers were nice enough about enforcement, but it all got a little tiring after awhile. This is a municipal park, not DisneyWorld. Chill. As for the park itself, it's fine. A big (not particularly deep) pool, surrounded by 3 slides (one for tykes, another for under 7, and the grandaddy of them all, which is towering). There was plenty of space for sitting and umbrellas. The bathrooms are clean, the pool and slides are well maintained and there are lifeguards everywhere. The water is ice cold, and there are vending machines. Outside food is allowed (maybe this is just due to covid, there was a grille but it was closed), but don't get cute trying to sneak in liquor because they do search your bags thoroughly. I get the sense the city really cares about this facility and treats it accordingly. But check beforehand. Weekends are for city residents ONLY. Nobody from outside MoCo is allowed in, and they will check your ID to confirm. For some reason, I was only charged $6 (the city rate) instead of $11 (I like in Silver Spring) so that admittedly influenced my rating. I might have been a but harsher (because rules) had I paid full cost. My kids (ages 9 and 12) got a bit bored after awhile, but for the price, this isn't a bad way to blow an afternoon.
