Even though my son had taken Water Babies and Advanced Aqua Tots for the last two summers he is…read morestill very afraid of the water. We started off this school year with an Advanced Aqua Tots class and after about 6 classes I was ready to throw in the towel. I knew I would be doing him a disservice in the long run by taking him out of swim but the constant screaming during the class was getting to me. He would even run from me when it was time to get his swim suit on and there wasn't much improvement during the 15 minute car ride to Emler. We tried switching teachers and classes but nothing worked. I was then approached by the manager, Mrs. Devon and she recommended private classes. To start off she did two classes with my son and then Ms. Emily stepped in. What a transformation my son has made. When I tell him it is time to go to swim he starts jumping up and down and after one lesson he even got upset because it was time to leave. My son is not the same "swimmer" he was a month ago and it is amazing to see Ms. Emily dial into the things that he likes and in return we get results. Her patience and kindness has been amazing. I can see the trust that my son has for her and that is huge coming from a kid that has a fear of drowning. I can't thank Mrs. Devon and Ms. Emily enough for their efforts as I was on the brink of quitting. Not only was my son screaming for the entire 30 minutes, I was trying to juggle a busy toddler. My nerves were shot. I am forever grateful for Mrs. Devon and Ms. Emily as well as the rest of the staff at Emler who have worked with my son.

Do not recommend Emler Swim School. I brought my 6‑month‑old and the class was chaotic and…read moregenuinely terrifying. We canceled our membership the same day with the manager (possibly the owner), who assured us it was handled--yet Emler kept charging us for two more months. I expect professionalism and accountability from any company working with infants. Instead, we were met with poor class management and unacceptable billing practices. We moved to a different swim school and have had none of these issues. Parents: be cautious--do not provide your financial information unless you're prepared to fight charges after you stop attending.

Despite fixing every mistake within a day, he was singled out while others with the same errors were ignored.

My son, who is faster than half the team, was told he "does not fit" in a cruel email during Easter. This is not a supportive club; it's a disgrace. I will be reporting this experience to USA Swimming to protect other families. Avoid this place at all costs.

I wanted to take my time before posting this review to make sure I had time for my feelings to…read moresettle and to give the manager and owner time and the opportunity to fix my issues. After speaking with both of them and the owner saying in his own words to me "I can see why you are so upset I would be furious if that happened to me and my child" and then not fixing my issue - I feel as though I have a clear conscience leaving this review. I have an almost 3 year old who has taken group and private lessons at this facility. I felt the 1-2 year old slot was way below his level, but he wasn't able to do the 3 year old classes due to him needing more one in one attention. I agree with the assessment of him being taught the curriculum of the next level one on one until he was emotionally more mature and wouldn't be a distraction to other children in class. I certainly wouldn't want him to be the reason other kids didn't get the time they paid for because he isn't capable of standing and waiting his turn. Back to the reason for me being so disappointed and displeased with my overall experiences with Blast... on two different occasions my son showed up for preplanned private class makeups and on both occasions we were turned away because of a "front desk error" per their words where they double booked it. On both occasions my child was booked first and they were unable or unwilling to let him have his lesson and chose to let the other people take his spot. After the first occasion I was upset and asked to drop- the manager called me to smooth it over and suggested she refund me rather than reschedule. I agreed to this. Back in November the same thing happens again. I do not feel the front desk is competent to schedule, to direct families and control who is in the pool in a fair way and I feel their attitudes are accusatory, rude and completely unprofessional and unapologetic. They act as if I am out of line in asking for a refund when I have been mistreated and my son has been mistreated more than once. I have also experienced several rescheduling of days and several instructors in a short period of time. When new instructors came along I gave feedback that I didn't want to get anyone in trouble but that it seemed they had no idea how his class was to be structured at first. When you are paying almost $300 a month for private lessons- I feel like there should have been more training and an understanding before switching instructors. These are my top two reasons for my one star review. I wish I could have found a happy resolution but again - I spoke to both several times and never once got an apology. I hope if you go here you have a better experience. Also be warned or maybe just good to know that the manager is the mother of one of the main front desk people ... so when they say I'm calling the manager .... Don't expect the manager or mother to side with you - at least that's been my experience.

She has really helped them now have a love for swimming, so much they don't want to leave They went from not wanting to get their face wet when we started a few short weeks ago, to now both going under on their own.

On May 17th, I requested a trial class for my 4 year daughter to see if she liked swimming lessons…read moreand her comfort levels. On May 19th, I received a response back at 8:11am, that the trial lesson was approved for 6:30pm that evening with Carson. We arrive at SafeSplash located in LA Fitness in Frisco only to be advised we were not on their list for the day for trials. The young lady called her supervisor who also seem to have no knowledge, then I was requested to present confirmation email. I presented them email received and it was acknowledged by the young lady to her manager over the call. Then we were escorted to an area where the trainer, Carson arrived. He was pleasant and patient with my daughter during their session. However the beginning process should have been a red flag. Especially when no one had information of our account or information or appointment scheduled. To make matters worse, On May 19th I was also charged for the month of May in the amount of $84.50 . We had not even begin classes yet. We were still trying to get through the trial class to see if it worked for us. I thought we do the trial period then advise if we wanted to move forward, not the case. On May 24th which would have been the first date of class at 7:00 p.m. We arrived to check in and was advised that the class will be beginning momentarily. I asked was the teacher Carson available. He was the instructor listed on the schedule as well as he was the instructor she had during her trial and seemed to be comfortable. We were advised, Carson was not available and that there was another instructor. This was a bit confusing and baffling because my thoughts were that we were in a private class so it was only going to be two students being that my child had never taken lessons before and this is what I requested. However, we were advised to have signed up for group -beginner 1 when the class begin. They advised us that they're only four kids per group. This was also incorrect. There were families there for trial and other from all swim levels in the pool for this same class. I noticed as time progressed these children were a lot more experienced than my child and other children. I also noticed they were requested jump in the pool and my daughter was afraid so they look at me and then just skipped over her and went to the other students, then we came to swimming and rings was tossed in the water and two of the other children jumped in to the water to retrieve it and then it was my daughter turn once again and she said no that she didn't know how and the teacher looked at me again and proceeded to the other students. So I walked up to the instructor and asked what level are these children in and he advised Beginner 2. I advised that our schedule was for Beginner 1 with Carson at 7:00pm we were instructed to come to him. He verified my daughter on a board he had before class begin, he advised that he was sorry this was the list of names he was given. My daughter was frighten because she was asked to do things she was not experienced in doing nor was the time taken to show her. My husband and I were very frustrated of this experience. I then went back to the young lady at the table and requested to confirm the class that she sent us to she advised it was Beginner 1. I then advised her the gentleman in the water training the students advised it to be Beginner 2 class. I advised her this is dangerous and unorganized for the children. You are mixing the classes and experience levels and skipping over students that scared due to not having patience. Then another student came and the lady advised her mother that her class didn't begin until 7:30pm. They walked off then came back and she then joined the class, now it's 5 students to 1 teacher and the instructor advised "no" that it was too many kids and lady at the desk however insist and now there were 5 student of all ages and experience levels in the class. At that time I advised my daughter to get out of the pool. I went back to the young lady at the desk and request to terminate effective immediately and request to speak with a supervisor immediately. She advise I had to write my name and contact information on a piece of note book paper that will be presented to their supervisor and I would be getting a call in the morning,. No call received today, May 25th, however I noticed that my bank account was once again charged and this time it was for $99. I immediately called in regards to this and was advised the $99 was charge for June 2022 tuition. I was a bit confused why was June charged when I spoke with them on yesterday and advised to cancel effective immediately when they had my daughter in the wrong class the entire session and she was scared with no resolution to provide by apologies. The even more baffling part is that I was offered only get a 50% refund and the account will be terminated effective immediately. I advised, absolutely not. STAY CLEAR OF THIS PLACE!
