    The facilities are ok…read more However, it took exactly five weeks for the aquatic coordinator to submit the information about the lifesaving society course my child completed to the Lifesaving Society. (I called the Lifesaving Society to get the exact date of the submission.) As a result, the next lifesaving society course was not approved. It took me multiple calls to the Lifesaving Society and the City of Whitby. I will not return to the city of Whitby for other courses.

    Because this establishment is owned by the municipal government it is always well maintained and…read morekept aesthetically up-to-date. It has a nice-sized pool, large enough locker rooms, hot tubs, and saunas. It has a decent number of rooms in which classes are held and the lobby is pretty nice. I am not a fan of the avid disuse of the lower floor, however: it seems like a waste of space into which expansions could be made. I happen to use the health club- the gym- part of the building the most, so speaking from experience, that is where I'm taking a star off. Though the vast majority of the staff members/personal trainers are amazing people- particularly Leo- many could afford to learn a little more about working with the public. When it comes to equipment and space, there is even more room for improvement, for the health club. Most of the free-weights are pretty old, and despite quasi frequent updates, they are usually only to the machines. This is great for beginners and the elderly members of the health club, who seem to gravitate towards machines, but for the younger/more experienced members of the club that use free-weights and barbells more often, it would be nice to see some new purchases. Also, some more space would be useful, as in the past, the club has gotten rid of some useful equipment in an attempt to make more room. It should be noted that the maintenance staff and the majority of the receptionists are delightful people. I very much like how exceptionally affordable the health club is. A gym membership, personal training, swimming lessons, etc. are all amazingly economically feasible.

    The "school" is basically a website and a guy, answering the phone (occasionally)…read more It's not a gym-type place, where you can see what you are paying for. There's no reception area, you can easy walk through the locker room straight to the pool and spit in it, if you want - no one's gonna meet you on your way, even if it's your first day. Probably that's why you'll be basically forced to pay for the full course prior to even discussing anything - while filling up the form on a website you have to enter your credit card information, you can not skip it. *The price is shown for 9 lessons, but you have to pay for 10. Why not show the full price? To make the amount look more appealing? As I said, there's no staff to meet you on your first day, there no staff to even answer the phone!!! You won't hear "Hello, this is SeaOtterSwimSchool, how may I help you?", cause that's just someone's cell you are calling on. There's a high probability of not hearing anything at all for the same reason - no one picks up, even if you call many times at working hours. You might hear an answering machine, telling you about classes in January - very up to date. The class does not start on time - it might not start even after being 30 minutes late. In summary, for many reasons like the last one this school is not for adults, cause the approach is not serious at all.

    I like the facility, the pool is nice and clean. The staff are very accommodating and my instructor…read moreis the best. He takes time to teach me everything that I need to know.

    It's the best quality you will get for swim classes in GTA!…read more I had lots of parents highly refer me to try this place, some even suck up the cost of hwy 407 to bring their kids here, which to me says a lot!! This company started in their parents backyard pool, upgraded to a shared motel pool and now finally has opened up a beautiful space of heir own in Box Groove plaza. I love how genuine everyone that works here is, they all truly care about your kid and they are not a number. My kid is fearful and they really give him such patience. Basic level starts with ratio of 1:3 but he's the only kid and they still run the class! Instructors are in blue rash guards and there's 2 pool supervisors that float between groups in Orange, so sometimes like twice throughout each class my kid has two instructors all to himself. Clean viewing area for parents to watch their kids, small children's play area for the kids waiting. Two tv's playing sports or cp24, lots of plaza parking. Only bad part is- Showers sometimes get "reserved" by parents leaving their bags there which they shouldn't be or people wearing dirty/wet boots into viewing area despite signage.

    Update to my previous review. This place is nothing less than a 5 . The staff here have been…read moreextremely helpful and truly care about the progress of your children. First time with Russell Aquatics and we are off to a good start. My child has swam before through the Markham Community Center programs but he requires a program with a ratio that provides more one on one training. At Russell Aquatics, students in the Pre School 1-2 program have a 3:1 ratio. This is extremely beneficial when your child needs more attention which mine does. Even before we entered the facility the staff were already helping us with our first obstacle, a crying four year old. They came out to comfort him which in turn provided me with comfort. I will continue to update this post as my family continues to visit Russell Aquatics!
