Don't go here. The people are super rude. I went here for swim lessons and was taught poorly by a very rude woman.

This is a GREAT dive shop! The staff are knowledgeable and friendly. They have a good selection of…read moreequipment on hand in their shop and are more than happy to order any items you want that is not on hand. If you are wanting to take dive lessons this is an awesome spot. They have an indoor climate controlled pool right off of the show room. The instructor I had was very experienced and personable. If need a piece of dive gear, need your tanks filled, want to take lessons or just want to talk diving, this is the place.

Excellent customer service and great place to rent scuba equipment! The friendly employees first…read moreanswered my questions over the phone when I had called to reserve rental scuba equipment. They don't allow reservations, but since they did not have any classes scheduled the weekend I inquired about, they assured they would have adequate supplies and they did! When we arrived to rent the equipment, the employees greeted us right away. They patiently answered our questions and helped us select the right items since it was our first time renting. They clearly explained the cost and tried to save us money rather than talking us into spending more. In addition to rental equipment they sell scuba gear, hold classes, and host events and trips. They have a heated pool on-site and offer private and semi-private classes. Their training agency is SSI (Scuba Schools International). Overall, we had a great experience here and would rent from here again!

I gave two stars because the swim staff is nice. When we purchased our package, we were told the…read moreclasses we purchased didn't expire. Fast-forward six months when we had to skip classes due to scheduling over the weekends. We were then told oh we need to re-enroll in order to use those classes. Well, this means you didn't have to go twice a week to make up for what you didn't have the chance to do originally. This is not what we were told when we purchased. I went back back-and-forth, whether I should post or not. We have chosen to go to a different place because we felt lied to and cheated out of a lot of money. I would not recommend this company anymore, and I hope they change their business practices to something more ethical.

She has taken lessons here since she was 5 months old and continues to love swimming. The pool is her happy place! They regularly assess the students to provide feedback and move them up to different levels when they're ready. It's great to see all the new things she learns and can do as she moves up in levels and see her confidence grow. She was able to swim the length of a pool on her own by the time she was 4 and continues to grow as a strong swimmer thanks to the teachers here. The teachers are all friendly and helpful. The pool is big and warm and the facilityare clean. The weekly swim lessons are a great way to help our child get regular exercise and develop as a swimmer.

I've been taking my 4 year old here for a few months, and it has been an amazing experience!!! On…read moreher first day, we got a special red bracelet that let everyone know it's her first time and all the coaches made sure to acknowledge that! It was so sweet. Once she got in the water she felt nervous and one of the deck supervisors got in the pool along with her teacher so allow her to have some one on one time. You would think this was only because it was her first lesson but no, it happened again recently where she was having a hard time and again another couch jumped right in and gave her the extra attention she needed. All the coach's are super sweet, kind, and very patient!!! We have loved all the ones we have had! The teachers we have had so far are Lillian, (she teachers my daughters private lessons) Ruthie and Ashlyn and my 4 year old loves them all!! It's rare to find an environment that feels welcoming all the time but aqua tots does it each time! They are great at making the kids feel special and safe.

My family and I are huge fans of Aqua Tots! Our son started going when he turned two and loved it…read moreat first when someone could be in the water with him when he hit 2.5, it was not an easy transition for him. It was a whole lot of screaming and crying. On the advice of the coaches we did the two week intensive where he went for a lesson everyday. It worked wonders! The coaches are always so patient and understand with him, it's wonderful to see! We've had a ton of wonderful coaches over the years Molly, Madison, Quinton, Shelby, Jay, and now we have coach Leila. My son loves coach Leila and she really tries her best to teach him as much as a four year old in a pool actually listens. My son has truly started to learn how to swim thanks to Aqua Tots. I do have a ton of makeup classes, so I wish there was a better system in place there. My son is not the adaptable type and needs to know what time he's going and who is coach is well ahead of time. So for us, the makeup system just doesn't work super well. Overall we love Aqua Tots and are so thankful for the coaches and the friendly front desk staff. #ThankYouThursday

My daughter, who just turned 20 months old, is just wrapping up her survival lesson with coach…read moreRachel and she has had a truly incredible experience over the last 6 or so weeks. She fairly scared of getting her head under water, hated getting her head wet, and was brand new to this at first. In just a couple weeks, Rachel gave her the skills and confidence to thrive and accept new challenges. I was continually impressed by Rachel's calm, kind, supportive approach with each kiddo I saw her with - she was always comforting and understanding - yet challenging because she knew each kiddo's limits and abilities. I am so grateful for PhD Swim - every coach seems so encouraging and knowledgeable about both swimming and kids. We have enrolled in the next stage at PhD Swim and I couldn't be more thrilled. I know my daughter can survive if in a dangerous water situation, which was what was most important to me, but I also know she learned a ton in such a supportive environment along the way. I'd also like to add that PhD Swim is has been very impressive regarding covid protocols. Every adult - both parents and teachers - remain fully masked every second they are in the room, and kiddos are generally masked unless they are in the pool. The small classes and low number of kiddos/families in there at any time is very reassuring. Honestly, I initially balked at the price and time commitment - hey, it took 2-3x as long to travel there and back than the lesson itself, and the survival class was 3x a week!! - but I'd do it again in a heartbeat. Tl;dr: run, don't walk, to PhD Swim!

From the owner: We strive to provide top-quality swim instruction that's fun and effective…read more Join us to give your child the skills they need to feel confident and safe in the water.

Healthtrax is an excellent gym with varied classes, a sauna, steam room, whirlpool, new fitness…read moreequipment and water massage chairs. The staff are what makes this gym different. The instructors include modifications for higher or lower intensity and are helpful with personal questions. I always feel like I have had a workout that not only was excellent for aerobics, muscle strength and or stretching but maintains and improves mobility for daily activities that I never think about. Love the social aspect too!

At first glance, I thought Healthtrax would be a good place for me so, as a senior, I joined…read more Overall, the gym facility is nice. However, my experience was with personal training. I was assigned to a trainer and I was very clear of my limitations due to a knee replacement. The personal training and its exercises, exacerbated my condition and I begin go experience lots of knee pain. My physician indicated I should pause the training. I spoke with the trainer, and emailed Linda, the facility manager requesting, either another trainer more suited to my needs, or a refund. The trainer got back to me and said there was nothing they could do. When I canceled my membership, Linda, eventually got back to me months later, said she would look into and call my back. Again, I heard nothing from her. Instead, she delegated to someone else who did not resolve my issue. It was more important for them to hold onto a mere $53, rather than try a retain a customer. Customer service is just as important and the product so I would not recommend this gym or its personal training.
