We've been going here for almost 3 years and recently in the last 6 months, our kids lessons has been canceling every week!!! The company constantly makes excuses about their staff not being available.. for the last 6 months? Really? We are taking our two kids out of this place. Do not waste your time taking your children here for swim lessons. You will regret it dearly. I am telling you the truth. This places lacks swimming teachers. You will pay a hefty fee for them to constantly send you messages to cancel LAST MINUTE. Avoid at all cost.

Their café has options that sound great on the menu, but the product I received was not what was…read moredescribed. I ordered the "Super Antioxidant Cup," which is supposed to include bananas and fresh berries, but nothing in the bowl appeared fresh. It seemed like some type of juice was used to blend it, and I didn't see any fresh or frozen fruit being added. The "bananas" were actually banana chips. Paying $11 for something made with what felt like fake or misleading ingredients was very disappointing. Definitely not what I expected.

Facility is overall 5/5 excellent for a large and super spacious unique style modern family gym…read more Plenty of land for parking outside. Huge piece of land. Swimming pools were mostly heated/warm/grand/much larger in size than expected. Indoors and outdoors looked great. I'm impressed with this company/gym brand. They take pride in what they do here. Yes, it's not cheap for monthly membership, but there's good value here. Two story building. Membership representative is helpful and resourceful. You can find all kinds of classes and exercise activities upstairs. Loved the cycling/spinning room with large screen too. Amazing place. For an extra $50 per month on top of membership fees, the Recovery area looks most attractive/my favorite. Cryolounge, compression therapy, float therapy, red light therapy, cold therapy, and more! Perfect sauna inside and all the machines are high tech/new/clean/well managed. Not bad for not having to drive elsewhere for recovery services. Women's locker room toilets need better cleaning/managing. It was a mess inside during morning hours. Overall, locker room looks fantastic and very functional. Kids area is separate. So far so good. Great impression, other than the high fees/costs and 30 days advance membership cancellation notice may keep people wondering. They only accept month to month payments. Great place not far from foods/restaurants/walkable. Looks like a fun place to workout.

This is not like other swim clubs where communication is problem. This is like family. The strong bonds among swimmers, parents and coaches are undeniable.

I am very happy to recommend Coach Marcelo. After being disappointed at the large ratio at swim…read moreschools and the lack of focus dedicated to each swimmer, I decided to try private coaching for my 9 year old daughter. At first I was anxious to look for a private swim coach, so I looked for recommendations and I got two coaches names, so I tried both. I decided to stay with Coach Marcelo and I could not be happier with my decision. I could see my daughter's progress from the first day, I think because this coach is very patient and encouraging at the same time. He also keeps me informed of her progress. My daughter is now considering swimming during summer, thank you for everything!

Some of my earliest memories include swimming in the indoor pool at this YMCA back in the 2000s!…read moreEast Valley YMCA has an old school charm to it that is nice and gives East Side San Jose a sense of community. I come here after class at SJSU and randomly on the weekends. It's always a good workout. There are nitpicks I have with this YMCA like the filtered water dispensers are broken for weeks sometimes, the lockers in the locker room are old and require you to bring your own lock, some of the electronic lockers in the hallway are broken, the weight room gets stuffy, and they close at 2pm on the weekends, which is earlier than other local YMCAs. I never regret getting a workout in here though! It's in a convenient location, so if you're in the area and have a membership, I suggest checking it out!

Equipment constantly breaks and staff Do. Not. Fix. It. They don't care! Staff make excuses about…read morehow there's only one repair tech for all YMCA locations. Yeah, no! Ridiculous! YMCA membership is way overpriced and this gym is so run-down. You have to be an idiot to pay the outrageous YMCA fees for how little you get. Management and staff can't be bothered to do their job. I've literally seen equipment broken for months. Another time the gym closed early and didn't post it on the YMCA website. I wasted my time driving all the way here only to see a closed sign. When I asked a staff member what happened, she lied and said there were signs posted earlier in the week (there weren't). And then she literally slammed the door in my face. It was a gigantic waste of my time and a huge error on their end not communicating the closure on the YMCA website. I cannot stand the staff at this location. They're so rude! The only reason I come here is bec I get membership through my insurance. That's it! Otherwise I know membership isn't worth my money. Find a better gym that does their job and maintains their equipment. Take your business elsewhere.

Definitely looking forward to returning next year.

Both my boys attended Sunshine school from age 1-4. We love Sunshine school! My youngest just…read moregraduated from Sunshine this past summer. He was at the Vinci Park location with Mrs. Emily. She, along with the other teachers there are all very caring and kind. Mrs. Emily is the head teacher at Vinci Park. She is very attentive and willing to speak to me via text or phone at any time when I had questions or concerns. The students learn to sing English and Chinese songs, they do various arts and crafts, and their activities are diverse and fun. My son enjoyed going to school every single day! I am very appreciative of Sunshine school and will alway have fond memories of my boys growing up at this school!

My son has been at sunshine school since 8 months to 4 years old. Overall experience was very good…read moreas he was mostly very happy and healthy, and academically learned what I had expected. Last year he was at the Vinci Park campus where he is in the orange class. The staff at this campus are super loving, caring and friendly. My son was able to quickly adapt and love the teacher here, and he is especially fond of Ms. Huang and Ms. Emily. At one point he refused the idea of going to a school without Ms. Huang lol... One of the reason we picked this school was that I wanted my son to speak mandarin in early childhood. Most of the teachers here are native mandarin speaking, and this is a bi-lingual school. So if you are looking for mandarin immersion experience for your kids, this is a great choice! My son so far is a fluent mandarin speaker and he speaks some basic English too -- I am sure he will pick up that very fast later. My son learned letters, numbers, and some basic Chinese characters read and write by age 4. I am not academic focused and I am very happy with the progress. The school has plenty of outdoor time, and artwork time -- every day my son brings home a piece of work he made at school which is really nice. Last but not the least, the staff are super flexible and supportive of working parents. My drop off and pick up hours are based on my work meeting schedule, and they were always understanding and supportive. One time we went on international travel and after we got back, my son was jet lagged and super moody when I drop him off, Ms Emily gave us a few minutes to work it out, and told me if you need to go, we got it. If you like to spend more time to calm him down, feel free to do so. She checked with us multiple times to check my son was ok as well as I was ok with the delayed drop off. Super appreciated as a working parent!
