It, however is minimally used so there is generally access to equipment upon demand. In addition, the pickleball courts are generally accessible depending upon the time of day one can arrive. In contrast however, if you only expect to utilize the facility for a partial year, regardless of being a member over several years, the facility charges an exorbitant and excessive fee, which makes the membership cost more than other comparable facilities and thereby makes one feel unappreciated for loyalty to the club.

We could only fit in a few lessons but it was defiantly helpful and we learned a lot. She was great with our kid who was 3.5 at the time.

I would recommend her for anyone in that area who wants to get their little one more comfortable with the water and with enough time to be be able to swim on their own. Thanks Lindsey and Jakki!

Short review: Karen is a phenomenal coach! She got me from barely swimming to completing an Olympic…read moredistance swim (0.93 miles) in the Lake Tahoe Triathlon in 8 short weeks. It helped that she is a Triathlete herself and gave vital tips on improving form to competition tips. Long review: I've done several Sprint Triathlons in the past and really wanted to take it to the next level but my swimming skills consisted of poor breast stroke and dog paddling. I started taking lessons at Jean Brink pool in Pacifica but classes were taught by inexperienced teenagers. I've noticed Karen giving lessons at the pool and approached her (best decision ever). Within a week I was taking private 30 minutes lessons with her and it made the world of difference. By the end of the 8 weeks, my stroke count for 25 yards went from 26 strokes to 18. My endurance and speed improve dramatically as well. Karen would video tape you swimming and break down your stoke, kick, pace, breathing and ends each lesson with drills to practice, practice, practice. Triathlons will be a large part of my life and I look forward to continued sessions with Karen.

This is a long review, so here's the TL;DR to save you some time: I suggest that you never hand…read moreover money to an instructor before the lesson takes place. If you are considering taking lessons with her, I would strongly advise against forking over a lot of money at once. ------ I set up my first swim lesson with Karen for this past Sunday morning. I woke up that morning feeling unwell, and began feeling increasingly worse as the morning progressed. However, by then, Karen was already almost to my home in the East Bay. I thought I'd wait for her to come and offer her some compensation for her travel time. I apologized for having to cancel and asked her how much she thought was fair as compensation. She said she just wanted the full lesson fee ($65) to apply to the 7-lesson package ($390) that I had intended to buy. I gave her the $65 and we talked about rescheduling for the following Tuesday. However, when I sent her an email asking about our Tuesday lesson, she responded saying that she will no longer be able to be my swim coach due to the cancellation on Sunday. I then sent her an email apologizing again for the incident, and assured her that it would not happen again. She considered giving me lessons in her pool in Pacifica. However, I do not drive, so that was out of the question. She had known that I lived in the East Bay before agreeing to teach me, and she was fully aware of the distance. She told me that since her policy states that cancellations require a 24-hour notice, she will be keeping the $65 I had given her. If that was made clear to me initially, I would have understood, but it was not. Her cancellation policy on her website (as of 06/23/2015) does not state that the client must pay the full lesson fee in the event of a cancellation. Additionally, she had explicitly told me that the $65 was to be applied to the 7-lesson package. It is her business and she is free to make whatever policy she thinks is reasonable, but she has to make that policy clear to the client. Not only did she not make it clear, but she had explicitly told me something else. She should not tell clients one thing (i.e. "I will apply this money toward your lesson package") when she means another (i.e. "I am taking this money and I do not intend to teach you any longer").

Miracle Swimming offers great swim lessons for adults!…read more If you have had a hard time learning to swim for any reason and you're an adult, this is the swim class for you. Some of the students are very afraid of water and some not so much. The class size is small allowing for lots of time with the instructor and lots of practice time. The teachers are super experienced and very patient as well as super nice. The Berkeley pool is WARM! You won't freeze in there - perfect for beginning swimming. The Berkeley classes come with practice sessions for the 8 weeks following class, so you can practice in a nice, warm pool with other students. I have taken 3 of their courses, and I very much recommend them! I took the Beginning and Next Step classes in Berkeley with Richard (a great teacher!) and Ocean 101 in Sarasota, FL with Melon (founder of this school). Sarasota has the #1 beach in the US - look it up! Miracle Swimming has classes all over the country. IT'S TOTALLY GREAT! I had the best time and it was well worth the money to me. If you are at all interested, don't be shy about contacting Miracle Swimming with your questions or maybe buy their book first.
