    I wish I had found Lori SO MUCH sooner. Our kids are 8,6&3.5 and all were not able to swim. Lori is…read moreso incredible with each one of them. She makes everything into a game & the kids are having so much fun when it's their turn. She is so incredible with the kids - she is fun & silly & also challenges them the perfect amount. They can't wait to come back & my 3.5 year old cries when we leave. As someone with a background in education, I can tell how much skill & experience she has (she has 50 yrs of teaching experience) in everything she does with them that looks so natural but she's doing everything for a specific reason to get them closer to being proficient swimmers. We had previously only done a local ISR 2 week class with our oldest when they were very little but it was very traumatic for me & I didn't want to go back. I'm so thankful they can learn now in such a fun & effective way! I'm telling all my friends -- run don't walk to these swim lessons!!

    I'm so glad I found Lori here on Yelp! My 3 yr old took…read moregroup swim lessons in 2023 with a different company, and there was NO way I was doing that again this year. I had been looking for a one-on-one lesson. Kilmers Swim Time, taught by Lori Kilmer sounded just like what I had been searching for. I called her and booked lesson throughout the next 2.5 months to start. My son, who's about to turn 4 yr old has had 5, 30 minute swim lessons now. He started off shy and quiet. Not sure of this new place and person. But with each lesson he has opened up more and learned SO much! Lori has toys on the side of the pool she uses to keep the kids interested and focused in their lesson. She's so good with kids! Her style of teaching has my easily distracted kiddo focused and engaged the WHOLE lesson. It's impressive! Having my son, who is comfortable in water, but did not know how to swim, have one-on-one lessons is so much less stressful. With group lessons with a different company last year I was so paranoid of him going under the water and no one noticing, since they'd be working with a different kid and have their back to the kids who were waiting for their turn. I highly recommend you talk to Lori and give Kilmer's Swim Time a chance! She's very knowledgeable and has decades of experience!

    We love Callan Swim School! My daughter started lessons right when she turned three and didn't even…read morelike getting her face wet. Just six months later, she's swimming unassisted across the pool. It's been truly remarkable to watch her progress, and her instructor, Miss Isabella, has made every lesson fun, encouraging, and safe from day one. The lessons are short, which seems typical for this age group, but if you stay consistent, the progress happens quickly. The staff is also very open to feedback and always responsive whenever we've had questions or concerns about a lesson. Going into this summer, I feel confident she'll be able to swim independently, and I'm so grateful she's developed a genuine love for the water.

Unfortunately, we have noticed that staff members, including one of our favorite instructors have left and are planning on leaving their employment at this location. I have learned that this is not because of the job itself, but because of the conduct and behavior of the owner whom I shall refer to as "B" "B" does not seem to value his staff in the way we, the customers, do. It is my understanding that he is often rude, dismissive, abrupt, and insensitive to staff. I have also learned that there is hardly a staff member at the school that has not been brought to tears by the words of 'B" I have personally observed some of his interactions with staff, and was horrified that they would be spoken to in the manner that he did. This type of business relies on their staff, specifically their teachers. Without them, there is no business. I am quite concerned that there will be a continued turnover, which will have a direct negative impact on the students at the school, including my son. I know that this is a family owned and operated business. I have great respect for the Callan family. Unfortunately "B" is risking their good reputation, and I truly hope someone in the family business can step in and change the course such that the staff be treated as they deserve. I know that many families, mine included, will follow our child's instructor if they should leave this location. This 5 star rating is only because of the employees.

    We cannot recommend Coach Dave from Shark Swim Lessons enough!…read more When my son first started, he had very little swimming experience. In just 8 sessions, Coach Dave helped him learn the foundations of swimming with so much patience, encouragement, and professionalism. We continued lessons with him, and 6 months later Archer is now like a little fish in the water What really stands out is Coach Dave's dedication and ability to connect with kids. He makes lessons fun while still building strong technique, confidence, and water safety skills. You can genuinely tell he cares about every child's progress.

    I started swimming lessons with Dave as a complete beginner with a serious fear of water. From day…read moreone, he's been incredibly patient, kind, and motivating. He never rushes you, but somehow always knows how to push you just the right amount to help you grow. His calm teaching style and positive attitude truly helped me overcome my fear -- something I never thought was possible! My brother and I took lessons together, and Dave was always on time, flexible with scheduling, and super easy to communicate with. Every lesson felt productive and fun at the same time. If you're an adult who's never swum before or feels nervous around water, I can't recommend Dave enough. He makes learning to swim feel achievable and even exciting. I'm already looking forward to coming back to keep improving!

    I live in a neighborhood of San Diego which requires all home owners to financially support the RB…read moreSwim and Tennis Club, have been since we moved to our current home some 12 years ago. There are two levels of membership, the required one, which has an annual fee approaching $500, and which only allows up to six visits per year, and the unlimited one with an annual fee nearing $700. When people buy in this area, they are adequately informed of their future financial obligations. The facility is quite nice, the other members are generally friendly and most of the lower level staff are equally friendly and capable. There exists two pool areas, one reserved for seniors, adequate shade, and also an ok fitness facility. There are areas for children, many tennis and pickleball courts, meeting rooms, and several annual family picnic events. Of late, many of the required members, who often moved here when the annual rate was much lower, have been unhappy with the cost for something they do not use, and if they did, it would be around $80 per visit, while the enhanced members can attend daily if they so please, possibly at as low a rate as $2 per visit. I understand the need for funding of the physical plant and of adequate reserves for future expenses, and would not personally use the facilities much anymore, as 80 is in my rear view, but think that the board should consider an increase in the allowed annual allowed number of visits equal on a percentage basis to the lat ten years of financial obligatory increases. This might mitigate some of the current unhappiness. And no, I don't wish to serve on the board of directors. Been there, done that.

    I came here to play pickleball as a guest of one of the RBSTC members. Therefore, this review is…read moremainly for the facility and the pickleball courts and playing conditions. RBSTC is an old HOA membership only club (for people that live in the community). It is dated, crowded, and very guarded with partitions, fences/gates to separate different activities. They are very strict with tracking and making sure guests are checked in properly. You feel like you're visiting a friend in prison with all the info and form that you have to fill out and sign. But once you get through the check point, the facility is quite nice with swimming pool, tennis courts, pickleball courts, basketball courts, batting cages, etc. Pickleball is the latest craze and is very popular among club members. RBSTC has 8 pickleball courts to accommodate the demands. The courts are nicely surfaced and maintained. However, the center fences are too close to one side of the back courts which hindered your movement and serves. It's great that the courts have lights so you can play at night. But they should upgrade to LED lights for better visual and to enhance play.
