    We're deeply grateful our pediatrician recommended this swim school. Miss Kathy and Rob practice a…read moregentle, child-first style of teaching and the results are amazing. It's incredible to see your own child blossom into a real swimmer - without fear, and with joy in the pool - after just a few lessons. It's also incredible to see that evolution in the other children with whom you share the class. We enjoy their mindful approach for both parents and children in how they structure the classes. We also respect their extensive Montessori teaching background, which shows in how they treat each child individually, with respect and kindness and calmness, and approach swimming as a series of small steps that all come together for different leaps of skill in the water. If you care most about your child learning to swim in a supportive, gentle and loving environment, this is the school for you. You will not only nurture a safe swimmer, but also a child who discovers joy, confidence and fun in the pool.

I have brought three of my four children here over the course of the past fourteen years, and will be enrolling my fourth this summer. The owners, and coaches, Rob and Kathy McKay, not only know about swimming, but they know about children. They both continually research ways in which babies and young children learn - using fun, age-appropriate games to teach crucial swimming skills. The children are having so much fun, they don't realize they're involved in instruction. The McKays are dedicated to providing a gentle and nurturing environment in which children can learn to love swimming, without the pressure and scare tactics that some other swim schools employ. If you're wanting to drop your child off while you sit on the sidelines, this is NOT the place for you. Parents in the water with their baby/child is a must here at this school - so it really becomes a mommy (or daddy) and me program. I can't think of another mommy and me program that I would enjoy more! You will spend your class time with your child in the warm waters having fun, playing games, and singing songs...all while learning swim techniques. To this day, my 17 yo is still such a relaxed swimmer and loves the water - as does my 8 yo. My 4 yo refused to even put his face in the water last year. Within a few classes, he progressed to putting his whole head under and LOVING IT! Within a few months, he was diving to the bottom of the shallow end to pick up a ring on the bottom of the pool. I can't tell you how many horror stories I hear from mothers who go elsewhere and their children become terrified of the water due to the forceful teaching techniques. I feel truly blessed to get to bring my children here. Lifestyle Swim School is THE swim school if you want your child(ten) to love swimming for LIFE!

    Not sure what some of the other reviewers are talking about. Clearly they haven't visited the…read moreliteral garbage dumps that are the other gyms in Boca. This is an awesome facility and I truly enjoy spending time there. There's something for everyone no matter what your fitness goals are-- during my time as a member I've gone from "taking a break" from working out and doing a lot of yoga/relaxing and now currently getting back into a bodybuilding program. The gym offers a variety of equipment and I never have to improvise due to lack of equipment. I might be staying the obvious here, but if you are into powerlifting, I would probably go elsewhere. The cardio machines are brand new and really nice. The actual place itself is very clean. I feel totally comfortable showering in the locker room and they have everything you need- towels, body wash, lotion, razors, etc. The outdoor pool is really pretty and nice to relax at after a workout. Staff is super nice and helpful. I have yet to buy any food from the cafe but it looks good. Definitely some good options if you're in a bind or spending a long time there. I will gladly pay the extra $ to train in a clean and peaceful gym.

    What a bummer. The "enshitification" of the world as a whole continues... And now it includes the…read morelifetime at Boca. I recently returned to this lifetime after being away a few months. I simply cannot believe the decisions made for their renovation. I understand renovations were needed as the gym they previously purchased and renamed, did need several cosmetic updates. However, whoever made the decisions for this specific location seriously is tone deaf, and should not be put in charge of such decisions in the future. Not to mention, the air conditioning still stops working randomly, the showers are not open for use, can't use the court because of construction, several classes unavailable. And they are still charging full price. The only silver lining, and also the only reason I left two stars, is because the lifting area is still nicely maintained. And honestly, after seeing what they chose to do with the basketball courts, I will no longer be coming to this location. Removal of the full court NBA sized court with all the side baskets will affect their membership numbers more than they realize. This location has long been a legendary court where high-level players and their training staff and friends would frequent. Especially over the summer. Now it's been downsized to a LA Fitness style court. Also, considering how much it cost nowadays to replace of hardwood basketball court, if they ever chose to go back on their decision, it would cost them triple. Absolutely bonehead move by whoever signed off on this. Whoever made this decision, does not understand the local community and their desires. Furthermore, it's not like they were short on space. There's plenty of room in this massive gym to have turf placed without cutting up the bball floor. Not to mention, the other nearest lifetime in Palm Beacch Gardens only has Pickleball courts. So basically, if you are a basketball player, Life Time doesn't really care about you. Such an absolute shame. Local community that is affected by this will find alternate locations. Personally, I will be going to the equinox in West Palm. Feel free to include a boring corporate response below this review, but understand that no matter what you say, you made a terrible decision which was not " in the best interest of the community". I hate how so many things nowadays are made worse by someone sitting behind a desk signing off on bad ideas. Well, understand that now people who used to drive over an hour to come use this gym will find other places to go.
