David and his team have been truly exceptional. We enrolled our son in his classes when he was…read morealmost 2 because our house had a pool and we were worried about what could have happened. Within 3 weeks our son could float, within 5 weeks he could swim and pull himself out of the pool, and we even did a test if he fell in with his clothes on and he passed with flying colors! I'd like to think its genetics but it was really David's hands on approach. Since then we have kept him enrolled and now as a 4 year old, he has the confidence that extends outside the pool. I can't recommend WeAquatics enough. Even compared to our friends kids who enrolled in other companies (Goldfish), it's not even close!

Our two kids (ages 4 & 8) have one-on-one/private swim lessons via WEAquatics at the natatorium at…read moreTrinity. Both are in the pool at the same time, with their own instructors. The Trinity facility is an exceptional space, great parking, wonderfully kind staff. WEAquatics is an amazing program with stellar teachers. They are kind and encouraging and knowledgeable. Our 8 year old says that the lessons are the highlight of her week and the progress our 4 year old has made in two lessons was unbelievable. The staff at the program is responsive and flexible. This is expensive but worth the investment. For us, these are our first lessons for both kids and I know our kids will make significant progress in a short amount of time, thereby making the $$$ more than worth it.

Amazing swim school. I've swam off and on for years, just freestyle, with long gaps in between. I…read moredecided to take it more seriously a few years ago. I can swim all 4 competitive strokes now (butterfly is still challenging and needs work) and working on flip turns which I can land but haven't perfected just yet. I've had wonderful instructors and the administrators have been excellent with rescheduling. Give them a try. You won't regret it. Very fair prices and probably the best in the city and I've been to other swim schools in the area.

Wow - I would NOT recommend WeAquatics to any parents or families who are interested in customer…read moreservice and an enjoyable experience. Our family signed up for a trial session ($45 each, and we were assured would be an hour-long session) and after 2 minutes, the coach said both kids completed their trial. After numerous times of talking with Management and trying to get my kids registered for their appropriate level, I am convinced that WeAquatics does not care about kids learning to swim; all they care about is taking your money!

Ariana was soooo sweet with our 18 month old, Evelyn! We absolutely loved all of our lessons. In…read morejust six short sessions, our girl went from barely hanging onto a wall and being afraid to leave the pool steps to monkey climbing back and forth for so long, jumping in from the sides and finding the wall from the water, gained more confidence on her back, started blowing bubbles, kicking her legs, etc, and she has LOVED being in the water ever since discovering that confidence with Ariana!! It really helped me and my anxiety knowing that Ariana is becoming a neonatal RN soon and I felt so good experimenting and taking risks while she was there to step in if needed. She was so patient each lesson waiting for my daughter to get comfortable in the water and with her being there, bought special pool toys and learned which ones my daughter took to the quickest and used those to get her comfortable within minutes of beginning each lesson. She left each lesson giving me tips and what to work on in between lessons and I loved being given that direction! she also was always on time, communicative and understanding and flexible of cancellations due to weather. I hope she is still teaching next summer so I can have her out for my daughter again and my baby boy that's due in a couple weeks, and wish we could continue this summer with more but I won't be able to swim for a bit after having this one. We totally would have extended otherwise. 10/10 instructor and experience Thoroughly loved the private experience of having her come out to my in-laws pool to teach too!

This is the best short/long course pool in the DC, Maryland, Virginia area. I have been a…read morecompetitive swimmer all my life and am impressed with the pool layout, aquatics programs and athletes training here. Wilson Pool does have its positives and negatives. Positives: -The pool and locker room facility is clean - They alternate between 25 and 50 meter lanes every other day - They facility provides kick boards, flippers and other swim gear for free - There are very dedicated athletes here - The pool is free for DC residents - There is a warm up/cool down pool and hot tub to soothe muscles Negatives: - The pool is always very crowded unless it is opening or closing time - Staff is available but not very friendly - There have been instances of people getting belongs stolen so please lock up your stuff - They need more programs and co-ed swim groups so people can meet other swimmers

Great facility, but somehow every lane is always closed due to events or understaffing. So you…read moreusually have to share your lane with someone else which I wouldn't mind, but it does make my workouts harder to focus on when I'm constantly trying not to bump into someone or the divider. They also can't seem to figure out how to process my membership on site without me calling a customer service line first, even though I was told by other staff it would be processed by now, so they make me prove I'm a resident every time.

I took his "treading water" clinic and in 10 minutes, I was treading water effortlessly; something I've struggled doing for years and even after taking numerous lessons with private instructors (not affiliated with SwimBox). He's taught for 22+ years! and it shows. He simply knows how to coach all the minute details in swimming mechanics. I've always 'm someone with a high muscle to fat ratio and have ALWAYS sank like a rock. He taught me 3 styles to use my hands to tread and 4 styles using my feet. He demonstrated things in the water (such as corkscrews) that I've never seen/heard of before. He's very friendly and personable as well. I've taken the swim analysis and it was super helpful/beneficial. Looking forward to signing up for more classes! Highly recommend!

I can't say enough good things about this place, one of my creative homes here in DC! Dan has…read morecreated such a beautiful, light-filled space that's equipped with pretty much any tool or equipment you might need to bring any idea to life. The classes themselves are fantastic - you'll learn by doing, but also by watching an expert demonstrate for you, and getting as much help as you may need throughout. It's a good balance: you'll build your skill set and learn the practicalities of metalsmithing, but also learn to understand your own creative vision, which you can work on during open studio hours. The vibe is really chill (Dan plays great music!), all the teachers are kind and helpful and supportive, your fellow students are all interesting and fun, and overall this is the kind of space where you feel like you're able to make mistakes and still learn and grow from them. If you've ever wanted to learn the true craft of metalsmithing to make fine jewelry, this is the place to do it.

Dan did an amazing job on my pieces and the shop itself is such a cool place!! 10/10 recommend.read more
