BEWARE!!! The swimming lessons are JOKE! They do not teach you how to swim or anything. Let me tell you my story:
I'm severely afraid of water and I wanted to learn how to swim. I paid $100 for 4 lessons, thinking they have professional instructors to teach me how to swim. When I went there, they looked at me and my mom like we are aliens. The lady, that was supposed to be in charge said that she wasn't aware we were coming and I specifically signed up for adult class! The two trainers, as you can tell, were pushed on us. One had her arms folded and the other said "um, let me see what else I can I do to teach you". They didn't have any plan and we're making things up as they go.
My mother and I were struggling in the water and they laughed at us. We were laughing at ourselves, but they instructors and should know what to do.
Me and my mother went online for swimming beginner tips, and the first thing is to learn how to breath underwater and they didn't do anything like that. They told us to dip our heads under water and that's it. They didn't tell us how to breath or nothing.
Mr. Ben Whipple, the director, is a joke. He won't listen to you at all and only thinks about money and not the quality of the service. He has every excuse in the world not to try to rectify the situation. He was trying to blame us for holding classes that the lady in charge didn't know we were coming. I didn't feel comfortable continuing the lessons. Now, I'm going somewhere else to learn how to swim and this whole experience made me even more afraid.
Some adults have fears and try to conquer them. When you have incompetent instructors, that can exacerbate your fears. This is water! I could drown! I already told them, that I had very bad experiences when I was young. I'm still going to try to teach myself how to swim. The sad part is, that I had to go to Youtube to see what I needed to do as a beginner. When you are taking someone's money, you should have a plan and not have adults in little kid's classes!! I regret paying for these lesson if you are a beginner, don't waste your time or money here! read more
