    This location is very unorganized. I had scheduled a swim class for a private lesson and they did…read morenot add it to the schedule and booked someone else and took my son out of class 5 minutes into his session. Not once did manager apologize to me or my son they simply said your son wasn't on the schedule and this child was. Audrey is the person who spoke with and suddenly unavailable during this conversation. They clearly double book that session but declined to admit an error. The worst experience ever when returning to this location.

    It's sad that I have to give this review. We started here back in 2016 with our first child when it…read morewas called, "Aqua Safe". It was solid, personable, and coaches actually enjoyed and cared for the kids growth. Fast forward to now, our oldest (8), middle child (4), and our youngest (2) have been loyal to this company for a long time. The facility was OK, we stayed because of the young coaches that taught our kids, also we don't like change in general . Since it was bought out from SafeSplash, we saw a decline in students, the vibes are off from the coaches, the parents/kids. The management cares more about the tasks not actually care of each kid. The new swim curriculum is weird and I don't see any improvement from my 2 and 4 year old boys compared to my 8 year old when he started with aqua Safe's curriculum. Finally, I don't recommend it this place anymore. It used to be awesome for the kids but now they're more focus on making money vs kids growth in swim. We're currently at Swimhaus Swim School and it's been amazing. Family local owned, which is huge plus for us!!

    We tried multiple times to register for swim lessons and had an incredibly frustrating experience…read more After calling three times, I finally spoke with the director, John, who admitted the pre-registration links on their newly redesigned website are broken and that this was a known issue. Unfortunately, the staff I spoke with prior to John were dismissive and unhelpful, simply directing me back to a website that doesn't work. It's discouraging to see so many positive reviews when new customers are unable to register at all. If you collect contact information and even credit card details but have no functional way to complete registration, it undermines trust and credibility. A business that cannot prioritize basic customer service and onboarding--especially when parents are trying to ensure safety and instruction for their children--misses the mark entirely. Very disappointing

    We enrolled our boys at EVO after seeing the many positive reviews, but unfortunately our…read moreexperience has been very disappointing. Both of our boys are on the spectrum, and while my younger son was having some difficulty focusing in the water (which is to be expected given how much he loves it), the instructor's reaction was completely inappropriate. During the last session, the instructor was visibly upset--rolling his eyes and even looking up at the ceiling in frustration. No parent should ever have to witness that kind of behavior directed at their child, especially a child on the spectrum who needs patience and support. To make matters worse, when we called to cancel and withdraw our kids from the program, the staff member we spoke with didn't even ask why we were leaving or show any concern at all. That lack of care and understanding was just as disappointing as what we saw during lessons. Parents of children with autism, please think twice before enrolling your kids here. We all want an environment that offers patience, care, and encouragement, and unfortunately EVO did not provide that for our family. We will not be returning.

    Enrolled my girls for the summer to help them learn essential swimming skills. We did a free trial…read moreclass at another swimming lessons business, but we were not impressed with the structure or location (it was located behind a building, thru a rear door, inside a gym). When we got to our first lesson at Aqua Tots, we knew we made the right choice. At only a couple dollars more per lesson, this place seemed like a 5 star luxury resort in comparison. The staff is so friendly. There is a large changing area with separate bathrooms, there are blow dryers available, and also a swim suit drying machine!! The swim suit dryer was very impressive!! They have a very comfortable sitting area for family to sit and watch their child in class without having to sit in a stuffy, hot / humid pool room... Instead, parents can kick back in a comfortable chair in the air conditioning. As a bonus- They offer complimentary water and snacks for the students & parents. We love Aqua Tots! I highly recommend to anyone!

    We had our daughter here for only a few months and had a few bad experiences. The reason we ended…read moreup canceling our membership was because of our last session, my almost 5 year old daughter was in her lesson when I looked down for one minute and looked up and she was crying and standing on the step looking at me while the instructor was with another child. I got up right away and ended up walking into the pool area to help her because the instructor was with the other child in her group. The instructor didn't say she saw anything. My daughter cried the whole way home and had a hard time calming down. She never wanted to go again but couldn't tell me what exactly happened. We canceled since we weren't going to force her to go. Well, a month later swim lessons got brought up and she just now told me that she didn't wanna go back to swim lessons because she almost drowned in the water. She said she went under water and couldn't find the wall. I am writing this review now to warn parents please don't take your child here if you are serious about teaching them to swim. It's not worth it and the groups are too big for them to learn anything anyway and the way they just have the other kids sit by the wall while the instructor is with one child at a time just seems unsafe.
