I've been bringing both of my kids here for the last 4 months and we love it! My daughter is 10…read moreyears old and already knew how to swim but she wanted to learn more advanced techniques, she was with Martin and liked him a lot. She just graduated to Pre Comp and is now a swordfish. My 10 month old started with the parent tot class for 1 month and then we switched to private lessons with Emily and he's doing so good! He's going underwater and learning to float already. I'm here twice a week and see that everyone here works really well with the kids, my children and I all feel comfortable working with any of the amazing instructors :)

We switched to a different coach a few months ago due to changes in availability. Hence the update,…read morebut also wanted to mention some others. Coach Leo has been fantastic with our 3 year old son. We have seen so much progress in his abilities to swim. More importantly, to me, my son is so excited to go to swim lessons. Coach Leo is warm, encouraging, patient, and caring. He always wraps up the lesson with a summary of what was worked on and what is to come in the future. He is a wonderful addition to the Watersafe team. We will always be thankful for the invaluable lessons he's teaching our son. Can't say enough about how clean the facility is - staff is constantly keeping things clean and organized. Alex is the person we see most and he is just always so polite and attentive. Love the front staff who are present most of the time we go - Corina, Mikaila, Gaby, and Montana. You all give this place such a welcoming and family vibe.

What an incredible swim program ! I am so happy with every…read morecoach we have tried for my daughter she is about 16months & has been swimming here since she turned 1yrs old so not too long, but long enough for both of us to fall in love with this (Swim) school the instructors and the office staff are so helpful , nice , and informative about the program and policies. Even though she is young, I see that they have other programs available as she progresses and advances through her swimming like the swim club, the snorkeling program, and the surfing program. I even took a surf lessons myself with the owner, who is absolutely fantastic. It is a great place not just for children to learn how to swim, but for adults to strengthen their skills or even explore other opportunities in the water. Ps they offer free trials

This aquatic school has been a God sent for my son who is deaf/hard of hearing. Because of his disability, I needed to find a facility/coach who was experienced enough to understand how to communicate with someone who can't hear when they're in the water since he can't wear his aids, as well as have patience with him. When I was doing my Google search I came a across many swim schools all around me, but none of them made me feel comfortable to allow them to work with my son, especially because most of them have really young instructors who may not be familiar with certain disabilities. As soon as we entered the facility I was please with not only the staff, but also the size of the pool. I love that it's strictly a teaching pool, and that it's not an Olympic size pool, which usually intimidates new swimmers. After the 1st lesson with coach Jason my son felt comfortable and excited to learn. We are grateful for Aquatic Explorations and the work they do to teach all kind of people with different abilities and disabilities.

British Swim School has truly been a blessing for our family. From the very beginning, the…read moreexperience has been exceptional. The owners -- especially Ted -- are warm, professional, and genuinely invested in every child's progress. And the instructors? Absolutely incredible. Our son started at the lowest level, with no real swimming experience other than a few sessions at YMCA. Unfortunately, our experience at YMCA was horrible, and I would not recommend anyone waste their money there. In complete contrast, British Swim School has been everything we hoped for and more. Watching our son progress all the way to Turtle Two has been amazing -- his confidence, comfort, and skills in the water have grown tremendously. Over time, we've had the privilege of learning from several talented instructors: Jayme, Kayla, Tristin, Micah -- and forgive me if I missed a few others. Every single one has been patient, skilled, and gifted at making kids feel comfortable. The way they build trust and bond with the children is incredible to watch. A Special Thank You to Elena For the past few weeks, Elena has been our son's instructor, and she has been nothing short of exceptional. Her teaching philosophy is thoughtful, structured, and incredibly effective. She has a rare ability to understand exactly what a child needs -- whether it's confidence, correction, or encouragement -- and she adjusts her approach instantly. Elena has a remarkable talent for breaking down techniques in a way kids can actually absorb. She focuses on both the micro and macro, explaining the small details that make a big difference while still keeping the bigger picture in mind. She notices everything -- breathing rhythm, hand placement, body alignment, comfort level, and even emotional cues. That level of detail is hard to find. Her patience is truly unmatched. She never rushes, never forces, and never makes a child feel overwhelmed. Instead, she guides them with calm confidence, and you can see how much trust kids place in her. Our son responds to her so well -- she has elevated his technique, boosted his confidence, and helped him enjoy swimming in a way we hadn't seen before. For our son, Elena has genuinely been a gift, and we are so grateful for her. This does not minimize the incredible work the other instructors do -- but Elena's impact has been especially meaningful for him. A Program That Actually Works One thing I absolutely love about British Swim School is their program structure. They start with water safety, then move into stroke development, and everything is taught in a very regimented, methodical way. It's based on what works best for kids, and you can clearly see the results. Their pricing is reasonable, and the value you get is outstanding. I want to give a huge shout-out to all the instructors -- every single one has played a part in our son's growth. If you want your child to learn what truly matters in the water, this is the swim school to choose.

Just want to start off by saying, my son is autistic and speech delayed, and has been given nothing…read morebut support from the instructors at BSS. Sarah, Ruby, and all the other girls have been patient, understanding and made me feel at ease when I felt my child was having difficulties. Checking yelp I'm very surprised by the ratings. If my son needed additional support and wasn't able to flourish at BSS (Which would probably be from a lack of care on my part and not helping him and participating), I would find him somewhere his needs could be met properly, and not spam 1 star reviews from multiple accounts. Cathy, you should really put that energy into finding a place that's a better fit for your kid. British Swim School has been nothing but kind and understanding with my autistic son, and no one should hesitate to do a trial and see if it's a good fit for their own kid on the spectrum.

This summer we found Jump Start and had Chloe as his instructor. He only completed 6 lessons - but she helped him so much! He went from being scared in a pool to going to Palm Springs this past weekend and being able to jump in the water alone, swim to safety, and play for hours on end in the water. It was absolutely INCREDIBLE to watch as his mom. Thank you so much, Chloe!! It's always hard to tell if the lessons will translate into the real world, and they truly did... we will be back next summer!

This is our 5th summer with Jump Start Swimming and we are definitely coming back next year! We…read morehave spent the last three summers taking lessons with Ms. Madison who has been very effective in helping my three children become more confident swimmers. My 10 year old and 8 year old were in semi-private lessons together and Ms. Maddie handled them well. My youngest, now 6 years old, can sometimes be a little stubborn but she complied during private lessons with Ms. Madison Le and Ms. Sofia Fex. Thank you both for making swim lessons fun for my children =) I'd also like to mention that Jump Start Swimming offers lessons to individuals with special needs. Overall, I recommend this business to anyone looking for affordable, 30 minute swim lessons during the summer months. See you next year!
