Wlad Luna in the main Suncoast YMCA office walked through the whole process with us by phone and by email, and that attention was much appreciated as it's tough to navigate the details when you're not physically living in that area yet. We also spoke with a woman who answered the phone at Greater Ridgecrest, and she not only directed us to call Wlad but also answered all our questions about our local branch. Coming from the great YMCA system here in San Diego, we're SO HAPPY to be joining another excellent system!

Highly recommend using Sun's Out if you want your child to learn how to swim. Brian was a wonderful…read moreteacher and made us feel comfortable during lessons. Lessons are taught in a residential home pool that is very nice. I park on the street and walk through the side yard to the screened in pool where Brian is usually waiting for our lesson. Sometimes we get there early and he is wrapping up a lesson with the previous student in the pool. There is plenty of patio seating so you can relax while your child is learning. He always is very positive and encouraging with your child and I loved the way he taught my son. Within one lesson he had learned what we came there to learn. My son knew how to swim but I wanted him to be a stronger and more capable swimmer so when we go out on our boat and snorkel, we do not have to worry about his abilities. He had my son overcome his fears and by the time we went snorkeling in the keys a few weeks later, my son was jumping off the boat into the water. My son chose to continue with lessons despite learning what he needed to and Brian taught him so much more! It was amazing and I loved going every week. He is great with kids and an amazing swim instructor. Highly recommend this swim school!

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. She brought some fun activities to help teach with and it was overall a very positive experience. 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!

Our 4 year old in particular made great progress to the point where he can jump in without a floatie, and swim across the pool without it as well. Lindsey did a nice job of targeting the boys with age appropriate lessons. Would definitely recommend this to others!

And the owner, Joan, is an amazingly sweet and kind woman who knows her stuff about swimming. We initially booked on a Wednesday, and my son was the only person signed up. Joan called me personally and explained the situation. She was very apologetic and accommodating. She even discussed my son's development and agreed to move him up a level. They are flexible and happy to make adjustments if your kid ends up in the wrong class. My child had Colin as an instructor, and he absolutely adores him. He cannot wait to go back. This is an adorable place to teach your child water safety and get them swimming. I have no doubt we made the right choice by enrolling our son!
