    Ty and Gabe swimming.  Thank you for giving us peace of mind.

    I started taking my son thier at the recommendation from the Regional center. My son would jump in pools and it was very scary when he didn't know how to swim. But now with his lessons he is confident in his swimming and we have peace of mind. Thank you Gabe.

    My 3 year old loves Miss Maria, the price is accessible and the 20 minutes are perfect for us. We have taken about 5 classes so far and are very pleased with the results. Even though we love that our son is learning at a fast pace, it's more important to know he feels comfortable and supported. The location is great and make-up classes are easy to schedule. We did a make-up class with Mr. Ed who was also friendly and funny, my kid loved him.

    my daughter has thrived with Miss Jasmine. she looks forward to her weekly swim lesson with Jasmine. we came here for lessons paid for by regional center and will definitely request for more lessons after these are completed. i love how easy it is to use their online scheduling system and even select makeup classes for anything that was missed. definitely give this place 10/10. If you are looking for lessons for your child , check them out !

    This is the first time our 2.5 year old is getting swim lessons. After a positive referral from a friend, we signed up with Waterworks. We really love our toddler's swim teacher, Ms. Samantha, and the care and ease they bring to the swimming process. She really has a way with our toddler and goes above and beyond to communicate with what she is working on and tips to help us. We are excited to continue our swim lessons with Waterworks and Ms. Samantha, and would definitely recommend Waterworks to everyone in need of swimming lessons for their kids.

    I would like to highly recommend both the customer service and the instructors. My twin girls taking semi private lessons (we started a few weeks ago) and we had Ed/Katie/Miles on different days all of them were professional, attentive and kind! The pool isn't packed and as a parent, it is nice to sit there during the lesson.

    Community swim and splash pad…read more Convenient location Plenty of parking Lots of parks near by walking distance Prices are fair depending who you ask. For us for only an hour of play and no family open swim...48 dollars for us is a bit steep. 8 dollars for adults 6 for the kids. The upside to this is you get a wrist band and you can come and go if you want. For us this did not work out. Big splash pad area, plenty of chairs and tables to eat a snack, fuax grass to put a blanket down and lay in the warm sun. Great for the younger toddlers and babies. Would not say it's great for the bigger kids, bc they tend to run... and they are pretty strict on the no running. Big pool area, bathrooms are clean. The splash pad area is clean, needs some love picking up leftover trash.... always leave your area cleaner than you found it. We picked up trash to do our part. Knocked off a half star, due to the lifeguard frantic screaming at my 4 year old.... who was having a hard time bc it was time to go.... didn't appreciate the screaming...a simple whistle blow would have gotten his attention and would have been a great distraction for redirecting. Knocked off half star for the extra trash on the side and clean up we had to do for us to feel OK to sit and eat and play. Water shoes a must! Bring a blanket to sit on Hats There is plenty of shade out of the water. Would recommend to others, if you plan on coming back through out the day which is nice to join the family open swim to get your worth. If you're on a tight budget, possibly seek other free splash areas. Enjoy!

    Beautiful, clean pool and fun splash pad for the kiddos. I enjoy lap swimming here. It's one of the…read morenicest places around with the Olympic size pool.

    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!

The main one (on Aviary Dr) has all the amenities. Olympic size swimming pool, 4 tennis courts, 8 pickleball courts, basketball court, workout gym (yoga, plate, etc.), weight room, jacuzzi, spa, etc.. They even have a children's play area and summer camps for the young ones. The 2nd location (Trail Dr) is a little smaller but has most of the amenities and more (5 tennis courts, an Olympic size swimming pool, 2 racquetball courts, a sand volleyball court, a miniature golf course, and a children's play area and daycare). Scripps Ranch community has grown in size and population. Therefore, patience is needed to gain membership at SRSRC. the resident membership waiting period is about 2-3 years.

    (This review is for the basic adult group swim lesson) I…read morejust took a basic adult group swim lesson at this facility. It was every Mon & Wed for 30 mins each time for 2 weeks. I was super excited when I found out there were only 3 women in the group. I wasn't excited anymore after 2nd session. During the first session I learned that one of women in the group already knew how to swim and she was there to learn how to lap swim. So basically she already knew how to do free style and could swim from one end to the other end of pool without any problem. She just wanted to polish and refine her techniques. She should have taken an intermediate swim lesson, not a basic lesson. Oh, and a private lesson, not a group lesson. I started feeling uneasy when I noticed the coach spent way more time with that woman than rest of us. The coach spent about 15 mins with her and maybe 5 mins with rest of us each time. It was obvious that woman acting like this was her own private lesson, kept on asking the coach tons of questions, interrupting that short 5 min session that the coach was having with another student by asking her to check her own techniques. I know there is always a person who would think she/he is entitled to do so. Then it should be the coach who needs to split the time equally for each student because this is a group lesson, not a private lesson, but the coach failed to do that. So if you are interested in taking a group lesson, look elsewhere.
