    We love this swim school! We're here for the second year now and my kids have made amazing progress. The instructors are all very attentive and do a great job adjusting their style to different kids (my 3 are all very different!). The facility is top notch and the vibes are great. My two 4 year old daughters have both become capable swimmers over the past year of taking lessons here and enjoyed it so much along the way. We started off our lessons this spring with an accelerator package with Brian and that was, I think, truly key in helping my girls make so much progress over the past couple months. We recently went on vacation and had access to a pool everyday and it was amazing to see how comfortable and confident both my 4 year olds were in the water. They also have great developmental lessons for older kids who are already solid swimmers. My 7 year old son has been a swimmer for 3 years but is really growing his passion for the sport here and learning so much about proper form and all the different strokes. Can't say enough good things about Legacy, would wholeheartedly recommend to anyone!

    We have been SO pleased with Legacy Swim Academy. Brian, the owner, is really on top of things and the staff is just beyond wonderful. Everyone is positive and cheerful and welcoming. I've noticed our 4 year old learning so much more here than at a precious indoor swim school he used to attend here in San Diego. They're very flexible with accommodating make up classes when needed and the one-on-one attention that our son gets during his lesson is fantastic. At other swim schools they sit around for half the lesson, but with Legacy it feels like the time in the lesson is filled with learning. Overall we feel so happy with our experience and our son is developing such a great confidence in the water.

    Nice and helpful. Love that it is an outdoors pool and that they take their time to figure out what approach I best for each individual kid.

Coach Jeff has a natural gift for working with children. He is incredibly patient, encouraging, and keeps the atmosphere light and enjoyable, even for the most beginning swimmers. My child (4), who has Autism, and initially had zero water safety skills, has developed both confidence and skill with Coach Jeff. He tailored each lesson to my son's individual needs and abilities through games, positive reinforcement, and breaking down basic skills into manageable steps. Coach Jeff made sure that be gained confidence and felt successful. He is highly professional and prioritizes safety. He has a great balance of fun and structure, which is so important when working with children in the water. Overall, I'm thrilled with the progress my son has made and would highly recommend Coach Jeff to any parent looking for a dedicated and talented swim instructor. We are lucky to have found him!!

He has helped our son be where he is today - an excellent and confident swimmer with awareness and appreciation of his surroundings whether he is swimming alone or with a big crowd.

    We have been coming to Big Blue Swim since August of 2025. And have not had a bad experience until…read moretoday. Mind you, My son is autistic and we got very lucky to have had the same instructor for almost 6 months. He obviously started off his swim lessons a little nervous and apprehensive but quickly warmed up. Sadly our coach doesn't work here anymore. For the past 3 weeks my son has had a new instructor. Last week we had the pleasure of experiencing coach Denise. She was absolutely amazing, extremely patient. I must've thanked her so many times for being so great with my son. Well today she had not been there and that's okay but coach Frankie stepped in to teach the class and right off the bat was annoyed, not compassionate of the fact that my son isn't used to her and she was so aggressive in her approach to try to get my son to swim. He was screaming, crying and the session basically ended in her discriminating against my son and his special needs. Saying "I'm not going to do this with him, or put up with the screaming, he's obviously upset" I immediately pulled my baby out of the pool and told her how inpatient she was and that it wasn't a good fit for us either. Instead of trying to get my son to warm up to her and be playful and allow him to trust her first since it was the first time he was ever in her class she just threw her hands up and said get him out of my class basically. We both left in tears and I spoke to Ivan the general manager who tried to make things right but I just can't get over the fact that as mothers it is our job to advocate for our children especially the ones who can't speak up for them selves . She has no business being around people let alone children. I sat in the parking lot balling my eyes out for 30 minutes after over how mistreated we were by this woman. These are some of the things coach Frankie said to my son today in swim class. "You're going to leave that wall one way or another" "You grabbing onto me isn't helping yourself" "I appreciate you trying to float on your back but that's not what we're doing right now" I really hope no one else has to go through what my son and I went through today by coach Frankie!
