Would definitely recommend this place for a fun, easy birthday party!

Different coaches every week and I wouldn't have changed a thing. Everyone is professional, knowledgeable and eons of patience. Ana helped us line up classes when I registered for too many level one classes. Terrance and Nick got him underwater in no time. Shout out to Diego and Bears for redirecting Arthur's goofiness. Everything he can do today is because of AnT swim. I am just so grateful for this school. Thanks for being our number one!

I can't say enough good things about this swim school. As an adult who struggled with real panic…read moreand fear in the water, I never thought I'd feel comfortable--let alone confident--swimming. But this experience completely changed that. A huge part of that is thanks to Kelly, the owner. She is incredibly patient, calm, and intuitive as a coach. She meets you exactly where you are, never rushes the process, and somehow knows exactly how to help you push past fear without feeling overwhelmed. The environment is supportive, encouraging, and completely judgment-free--something that makes all the difference when you're learning as an adult. If you've ever been hesitant or afraid of the water, I can honestly say this place can help you overcome it. Exceptional facility, outstanding coaches. Grateful doesn't even begin to cover it. Highly recommend.

The instructors are nice and really try to get the kids comfortable with water. My youngest was very afraid of water and would only sit on the steps, but by day 3, he was comfortable to submerged his whole body in. We signed the kiddos up for the mini summer sessions which are Monday thru Thursdays for 30 minutes each day. The class size is 1 instructor to 4 kids. We have done 2 weeks now with Happy Fish and on week 3. We have seen significant improvement in the kids swimming abilities and they look forward to going to class every day, which is a huge win given both were scared of water. Happy that we found Happy Fish and will definitely be back next summer! Shoutout to Ms. Kira and Dexter for being so patient with my kids and making swimming so fun for them!

I brought my 4 year old son to his first swin lesson unaware that it was located in a City Sport…read moregym that they aparently rent a lane in the City Sport swimming pool. Apon my arrival the woman at the reception to the gym when asked where the pool was located informed me that I would have to walk through the womens locker room to get to the pool. The other option is to walk through the mens locker room. As I took my 4 year old through the womans locker room I didnt expect to have to walk through to the very back to reach the door to the pool. I am extremely upset that my son was exposed to numerous naked women. They were either changing or coming out of the shower. My son was shocked and kept saying mommy they don't have clothes on..or mommy why are they naked. I don't even let my son see me naked!!!! As my husband arrived during the lesson my son had to use the bathroom and my husband took him to the mens locker room where I asked apon their return if men were nude on that sidecas well and the answer was yes! This is unacceptable and disturbing that SafeSplash is anything but safe to be ok exposing children to this. When I called customer service Alex their customer service chuckled and said "its just a locker room"! I asked to speak to the manager and he said he can only send an email. I asked for the number to their headquarters and he said their isn't one. What type of business is this!?! From what I was told their other locations are set up the same way. Exposing children to nude adults is never ok!! I was told someone would get back to me in 48 hours. The little child size pop up changing room smelled moldy...the 1 instructor working with 1 child at a time down the lane while other children who can't swin waiting on the step is unsafe as well. If 1 of those little ones hopped off the step who would of noticed if the instructor is half way down the lane. This who company is a disaster!

Coach Matthew is great! He is very patient with my son and always updates me with his progress. My son used to go at waterworks aquatics and I had to cancel his lessons there because he couldn't stand the smell of chlorine and he is a bit claustrophobic. Maki has a great environment. Their pool doesn't have a strong chlorine smell and I like how its not completely closed off. The tent is well ventilated and I like how they open the vinyl on hot days. My son feels comfortable and safe. Sandie has always been very helpful since my first interaction with her. She even offered a tour of the facility and a trial swim before we can commit. The location is very convenient. Only 5 minutes away from our house is a plus! Highly recommended

We had our two daughters at Maki Swim for nearly two years. The pool is clean, heated, and covered,…read moreand some individual coaches were genuinely caring and skilled. Unfortunately, constant coach changes meant our younger daughter never learned to swim despite two years of lessons -- every time progress was made, a new instructor reset the process. When we finally found a coach who worked for both girls, the school switched them without any discussion. When we raised concerns, the person running the school (Maggie) was dismissive and condescending rather than willing to listen. We also dealt with frequent last-minute cancellations (Sandy expecting immediate response last minute ). The coaches themselves were often great, but management's poor communication made it impossible to continue. Get all commitments in writing before enrolling.

My little started swim lessons around 20 months old and is now 5.5 years old! We have been coming weekly to this location, and it has seriously become a second home to us with a large extended family! Over the years we have had many amazing swim instructors including Ms. Marissa, Ms. Angelina, Ms. Karyn, Ms. Rachel, Ms. Corey, and countless wonderful others who have helped my little learn to swim across the pool in all four strokes before age 5. Every time we walk in the door my little is greeted by the front desk and office staff by name and it makes us feel so welcomed. The facility is always clean and organized (thanks Jan and team!). Each staff member working knows my child's level and how to help her improve her swim strokes. I also appreciate how the staff is very organized and everyone has a clear job that gets done in the pool, outside of the pool, and around the building. As a parent, I am so thankful for this large group of trusted adults that have not only taught my little how to swim, but have created amazing memories for her (like singing Taylor Swift at the top of their lungs and having us participate in a promotional photo shoot) and given her a wide net of trusted adults that she feels comfortable with and learns from.

What…read moresets this place apart from other gyms I've been apart of is their progressive programming and the incredible sense of community they've built. The programming here stood out to me when I first joined. Jorge and the other trainers are not just knowledgeable, but you can tell they genuinely care about your progress. Whether its your first workout class, or you've been an experience veteran, they tailor the workouts to suit your level and constantly challenge you to make progress. You have your build days (strength/core focus) and your burn days (cardio endurance) so there is definitely a variety--keeping things fresh and exciting. It's not just about how heavy your lifting the weight. What truly sets this gym apart is the sense of community. The members here are very supportive and friendly, and the more I attend class the easier it's been for me to stay consistent. From fitness challenges to different community gatherings (taco trucks, san pedro social, xmas parties) theres always something exciting happening, keeping me motivated throughout the year. The facilities are pretty clean, the gym equipment is updated (brand new sets of kettlebells, new rogue rigs, and rogue weight plates) theres also a second room thats fully equipt with power racks, cable pulleys, FID benches, dumbbells up to 120lbs, cardio equipment. All in all if your looking for a gym that offers a supportive community and excellent programming Brickhouse is the spot to be. The trainers are knowledgeable, the members are like friends/family and the overall atmosphere is incredibly postiive.

I was so impressed that each workout starts out with intentional warm-up stretches followed by the workout of the day with great music and excellent coaches. The workouts are also progressive and build on one another and are always different. This keeps it fresh and fun! The coaches demo all the moves, provide modifications as needed and encourage everyone to be their best. I've been going 4-5x's a week and am 4 months in. My morning workouts have become a habit I want to instill for life. I've seen weightloss results and more importantly, I've become stronger and am lifting heavier than I thought I could. The people are awesome, all friendly and supportive. It's an all around great community and I always feel so good after the workouts! All the latest research points to the importance of strength training and women lifting heavy to prevent muscle loss, increase bone density and thrive as we age! This place provides the guidance, accountability and support that makes that possible. Thank you to coach Jorge, coach PJ and the team at Brickhouse for creating a fun and focused environment for workouts and healthy living. You've got to check this place out and there's no other class like a class at Brickhouse!
