We absolutely love Australian Swimming School! My daughter has been taking swimming lessons since…read moreshe was just 3 months old, and now at 4 years old, she is an amazing swimmer. Watching her grow from a tiny baby into such a confident and skilled swimmer has been incredible. We truly believe her swimming abilities are a reflection of the wonderful instructors, patience, consistency, and care she has received throughout the years. Australian Swimming School has given her the confidence and skills to be safe and comfortable in the water, and we couldn't be more grateful. We highly recommend Australian Swimming School to any parent looking for a swim program. They have been such an important part of our daughter's journey, and we are so thankful we started her lessons here! ‍

Bear with me because I have a lot to say, and I want to give the good and the bad. First of all,…read morelet me just say that the instructors were always great with my kiddos. I especially want to give a shout out to Perry because he was always so gentle and caring with my little one. Both my kids started at Australian Swim school in the parent and me class and my oldest is six now, so I guess I can say we were long time customers. We never had an issue with any of the instructors. My oldest is autistic so I know he was challenging sometimes, but they always found a way to make it work. Now, we did end up leaving because of little things that started bothering us. One of those things was the poor maintenance of the facility. I noticed that things would breakdown and they would remain broken down for months, the temperature of the water in the showers was inconsistent, sometimes it was really hot, and other times we couldn't get it warm enough. When we left, one of the doors for one of the changing stalls had been broken for months, and already there were only like 3 or 4 stalls available, so this only made things worse, but even with all this, we were still happy to bring our kids to their swim lessons. I think what finally had us looking into other swim schools was the fact that my youngest had been in the parent and me class for over a year, and despite his instructor telling us that he thought our son was ready to move up a level, management always found a reason to not move him up. Which is interesting because at the new place, he started on the next level right off the bat, and he's been doing great! I want to finish this review by saying that I'm grateful to Australian swim school for giving my children such a positive first experience in swimming, and I'm grateful to the instructors for their patience and dedication to the kids. I do hope that the owners consider updating their facility and fixing whatever is broken, because if they don't, I think they're going to lose more customers to their competitors. Especially when there's little to no difference in pricing for newer and better maintained facilities. I hope this feedback helps!

We've had an amazing experience at Goldfish Swim School with our 4 year old twins…read more The staff is what truly sets this place apart. Everyone is kind, caring, and you can tell they love what they do. The facility is extremely clean, and the viewing area is the best I've seen. The huge glass window makes you feel like you're right there with your child. What means the most to me is how they work with my son, who is level 3 autistic and loves the water. Their lead instructor, Norma, is incredible. She specializes in working with kids on the spectrum and handles my son with so much patience, calmness, and positivity, even when his behavior can be challenging. It gives me real peace of mind. She is a 10 out of 10. At the same time, my other 4 year old has moved up four levels in just six months and is now swim safe. Big thank you to the managers, Shaan and Raj, who are always accommodating and easy to communicate with. If you are looking for a swim school that truly understands and supports children on the autism spectrum, I highly recommend Goldfish.

Goldfish is great! One of my favorite things about them is their customer service, which has been…read moreexceptional. Every time I call, text, or speak to someone in person, they are kind, friendly, positive, upbeat, and understanding. My son loves the pool and seeing Bubbles the Goldfish everywhere (and the turtle). The whole facility is very cute and clean. They have plenty of dressing rooms and bathroom stalls, a vanity with hairdryers, cotton swabs, and hair ties, showers on the pool deck with body wash, a fish tank, and a kids table with magnatiles, crayons, and blocks. The class sizes are small (6 students in Mini classes) and well-paced. The water is very warm and the instructors are encouraging and understanding. My son mostly just wants to play with the balls and barbell floatie so we like that toys are incorporated. They have a lot of membership options (month to month, seasonal packages, etc) and were very easy to reschedule with when needed. Parking can be limited in the evenings because of the surrounding businesses so plan accordingly. Happy swimming!

Update: After…read moreposting this review, we did finally receive a voicemail from management apologizing for the experience and acknowledging the communication breakdown. While I appreciate the outreach, it came after more than five weeks of repeated requests made both in person and by phone. During that time, we were consistently told that someone would contact us, yet no one ever did. Unfortunately, by the time management reached out, we had already made the decision to cancel our membership and move on. We have since found a private certified swim instructor who is able to provide one-on-one instruction at half the cost of what we were planning on paying with Big Blue . More importantly, the communication was immediate, straightforward, and responsive. This review was never about whether private lessons were available. It was about customer service, follow-through, and communication. Had someone simply returned one of our many requests with an honest update, we likely would have remained customers. I genuinely appreciate the instructors who worked with our son over the past two+ years and wish them the best. However, the lack of responsiveness from management ultimately led us to take our business elsewhere.

Highly recommend Big Blue swim school! The swim school is professional from the office to the…read moreinstructors. We were looking to build on swimming skills for our 10-year-old son and we couldn't be any happier with the results. Instructors, Derek and Michelle are fantastic. They knew how to work with our son to teach him proper form, swim speed and confidence in the pool. Thank you, Big Blue Swim School!

As long as your child can swim independently and are familiar with a few different swim strokes, they are allowed to join. I have found these classes to be a great way to strengthen their swimming skills and getting them used to drills in the water. Beginner classes are 1 hour long on T/Th from 5-6pm and your kid will get a great workout! They also learn how to move their legs to swim in place, how to swim holding the ball, pass the ball, score and block. When they have enough skill they can move on to the next level, which is M/T/Th from 5-6:30pm. My son has loved this year-round team; even in the winter he is excited to show up. From my observations, these swim sports help children develop some serious grit; rain or shine, they go in the water ready to practice. The coaches have been great too (shout out to coach Jake! And the others too, I just haven't learned their names). They RARELY cancel practice, unless there are thunderstorms. And the absolute best part of this club: canceling/starting a subscription is SUPER easy. As long as you give them notice in a timely manner, they just pause/restart your subscription without penalties or tricks like a lot of other places do. I highly recommend!

My girlfriend workout with me on the weekends here. Nice gym with friendly local people. Weights and fitness equipment stays clean and well kept. Service is good here too. I love it.

If you're thinking about starting your fitness journey, or you're someone who's debating on what…read moregym to choose, please reconsider wasting your money here. I was a paying member up until today, and unfortunately, I have decided saving a couple extra dollars on pf is not worth the disrespect at this location. The manager, Marco, micromanages and is extremely condescending and rude. He lectured my friend and I about resting. No one was waiting for the preacher curl machine, and my friend was resting on his phone between sets. Marco came over and told us we weren't allowed to be on our phones between sets. I asked him what we should be looking like when resting, and instead of giving a real response, he told me I should already know the policy. He also said we weren't allowed to rest and had to be working all the time. The policy is a long list of rules, and according to him, Im not allowed to be on my phone. I had no way to check the policy online. So I am confused as to why he wouldn't tell me the policy when he yelled at me for being on my phone. He automatically assumed we were high schoolers and threatened to kick us out. I am a paying member, and the automatic assumption I do not pay to be here because I am young is incredibly rude. I am upset he couldn't answer our questions; you are the manager here, the least you could do is clearly explain what is expected of us. Offhand, Marco is a bad driver. He were pulling out of the parking lot on another day and he almost hit us. So if you needed another reason to not come besides Marco having bad customer service, he's a bad driver. There's also this old cleaning lady who's super mean. Im not sure if she's here anymore, but I was biking and she came over and hit me with a dirty wet rag. I was shocked. I took my AirPods out and she asked me if the bottle on the ground was mine. It wasn't-- but slapping me with a dirty rag was rude. All in all, this planet fitness has a thing for hiring workers with poor customer service. You pay hard earned money to be here. You deserve to get a good workout without being micromanaged like a kid. Please heed my advice and stop taking the disrespect. Workout elsewhere. The extra money will buy you peace of mind.
