Do not send your kids here!…read more British Swim School class offered at LA Fitness Hazel Dell on Saturday @ 10am was a total disaster. There was a class being offered in the pool! While we were trying to get him dressed and ready! There were about 30 people in the pool taking a class of some sort and all the kids running around on the pool deck while they waited for the adult pool class to end. Total chaos. I am disenrolling my son and getting my money back. Avoid this place like the plague.

I wish the pool was more accessible, useable for free swims (likely keeps maintenance down and expensive draining session when an errant turd slips out?), but other than that the recent upgrades on the jungle/playground make it still a fun spot for my daughter. Also, I like the bathrooms - they seem safe, great design for people of all heights, UV drying blowers, and it feels safe... like no creepy creepers are slipping in there unnoticed.

Wow - I really wish I could give this business 10 stars!…read more I absolutely adore the staff who've helped me get my daughter enrolled. I've spoken to Lauren and a couple of other girls, and they've been incredibly knowledgeable and helpful getting me established. The location has plenty of parking and I truly appreciate how they use a private entrance to keep their families safe. They share the pool area at the LA Fitness, but it's clear they have many safety protocols in place to protect their clients. Another example of this is: the staff wear face shields in the pool while instructing the children. I really appreciate they care holistically about the children's safety. The pool area and locker rooms are spotless and clean - a must! Teacher David was our swim instructor. He was the best part of our experience. David was super respectful, knowledgeable, and great with kids. He gave me tips for teaching my daughter safe water practices and what we can practice with her at home. I highly recommended this program for anyone who wants to feel safe in a swim class and to leave confidently knowing your child is learning life saving skills in the water! Thank you, Safety Splash and team!

My experience with SafeSplash has been very disappointing, and I haven't even started classes yet…read more I initially enrolled online but had several questions because the schedule was confusing, the swim levels weren't clearly explained, and the website didn't provide enough information. When I called, I was already three-quarters of the way through the enrollment process. The representative asked me to cancel my online enrollment so he could enroll me over the phone, saying I'd get a better price. It ended up being exactly the same price. I also asked multiple times about private lessons because my schedule is very limited. Instead of answering my question, the representative kept talking about creating a group class. I had to explain several times that I wasn't looking for a group class--I wanted private lessons on a schedule that worked for me. Eventually, we found one group class that fit my schedule, and it was literally the only time I could attend. I enrolled and paid the annual registration fee based on that schedule. Then, on the day the class was supposed to start, SafeSplash changed the class time, making it impossible for me to attend. Since then, I've called twice and have been promised a callback within 48 hours, but no one has followed up. I've also been told that the annual registration fee is non-refundable because my class "already started"--even though the reason I can't attend is because they changed the schedule after I enrolled. I understand that schedules sometimes need to change, but customers shouldn't be penalized or charged a non-refundable fee when the company changes the only class they were able to attend. I hope SafeSplash reconsiders how it handles situations like this and improves both its communication and customer service. I'm happy to change my review if you change my experience. C. Travis

He took the time to ask me about my personal fitness goals and gave me a detailed road map of how I would accomplish them. During the personal training session, he had me do some exercises that I normally don't do, nonetheless, it gave me a good idea of some exercises to do to increase anaerobic activity, core strength, and stability. After the work out he took the time to get to know me and I was able to get to know him too. Overall, he was very friendly, personable, and I highly recommend his services to anyone interested in personal training. So far, I have greatly enjoyed my membership with LA fitness. I appreciate that they are open an hour later on the weekend compared to other gyms in town. Also, the kids club is a huge plus for me as a single Dad. Best gym in town hands down and the staff is amazing! I honestly do not understand why anyone would want to go anywhere else. I worked out at Planet Fitness for years and wish I would have made the change years ago! The gym at LA is very clean and they do a great job keeping the sanitizing stations locked and loaded. The amenities cannot be matched and the variety of equipment is excellent. Lastly, and most importantly, the ladies look much better over here. Two thumbs up and 5 stars from the Galenator!!!
