We unfortunately had a very disappointing experience with Conrad as a swimming instructor and would…read moredefinitely not recommend him to anyone looking for a supportive and encouraging teaching approach for their children. At the beginning of the lesson, my child mentioned to Conrad that he knew how to swim and was proud of his swimming skills. Conrad immediately responded, "Okay, show me those skills." When my child started swimming, Conrad immediately began making fun of his technique rather than simply correcting and teaching him in a constructive way. After that, I witnessed multiple interactions that I felt were sarcastic, belittling, and disrespectful. When discussing my child's technique, Conrad sarcastically told him something along the lines of, "you don't do it correctly anyway." He then compared him to his younger sibling, telling him to watch how his younger sibling was doing the stroke and learn from him. His tone and manner throughout these interactions were inappropriate for a child who was there to learn. There were also multiple occasions during both the first and second classes when Conrad tapped my child on the head while correcting him. My child later told me that it hurt and made him feel uncomfortable. By the end of the second lesson, my child was crying. I absolutely expect a swimming instructor to correct mistakes and challenge a child, but there is a significant difference between constructive correction and making a child feel embarrassed, mocked, or less confident. Children should be taught in a way that builds their confidence and makes them more interested in learning, not in a way that discourages them from something they previously enjoyed and felt proud of. After I raised my concerns, I immediately pulled my child from the program. We had attended only two classes out of a five-class week. I requested a refund for the remaining unused classes because our experience had clearly not turned out as expected. I was told that they do not honor refunds and that their no-refund policy is strict, and they were unwilling to reconsider it even under these circumstances. I found that response completely inappropriate and upsetting, particularly after I had explained why I did not feel comfortable sending my child back. Overall, I was left with the impression that Conrad may simply be tired of teaching children and no longer has the patience or approach that some children need from an instructor. If that is the case, perhaps it is time for him to reconsider whether teaching young children is still the right fit. Regardless of how many years of experience an instructor has, children deserve to be treated with patience, encouragement, and respect. I regret signing my children up and wish I had known more about this teaching approach beforehand. I am sharing our experience because I believe other parents should be aware of it and be able to decide whether this style of instruction is appropriate for their own child.

The best part is that he comes to your backyard, if you have a pool- and then we split lesson time with some of our neighbors kids. It's a really effective way to get a bunch of kids engaged and learning swimming. My youngest son had a real scare in the ocean when he was a baby and has been terrified to put his face in the water ever since. Shea was so good at building a program to get him water confident- and now he's in the junior swimming league! We are so grateful to Shea and his amazing team.

He is friendly, upbeat, and energetic.

This swim class is for kids and parents together. We took…read moreour daughter there when she was 9 months old, but there were several children who were as young as 3 months old. The class is simply magic. Constantia, the owner is the purest 'baby whisperer' we've ever met. Parents cradle their babies in the saline-based pool (a nice warm temperature) and little by little they get comfortable paddling and keeping themselves afloat, or holding themselves up along the edges. There is a wonderful song everyone sings at the beginning of class which has the effect of bringing everyone together. This is the best of 'Venice good vibes', and before you know it, your baby is a comfortable little dolphin.

Sessions run usually 6 weeks sometimes 4 depending on the owner Constantia's schedule, for 6 week it's $222. To get into a session you must attend orientation where you meet Constantia and she asks about your delivery etc then bring a check to sign up for a time slot. Classes run 45 mins the Sat class is highly coveted took us about 4 months in to get into one. Availability is based on who continues. Age is as young as you are comfortable to 2.5/3. The class is baby led so it's not instructional like make your child do this etc it teaches you to breathe and really have your child acclimate to the water. In turn as Your child gets more and more comfortable he or she will grow in skill. A loves it every weekend she kicks and swims and at 18 months she started going underwater. She loves the rain and now runs and jumps into the pool no fear at all.

Love this place! Everyone is so interactive and encouraging here…read more I took only 4 classes. First three were with Maksym and the last one was with Edward. Both of them were so kind, patient and enthusiastic. I had no previous swimming experience when I started and so they always made sure I was comfortable with doing any new techniques and going to a deeper side of the water. I am not a quick learner but I would say I really got the hang of some basic yet important skills that can help me get better at swimming with time and more practice. Thank you so much, Maksym and Edward! PS: You'll see cute little kids everywhere and that'll just make your whole day

We experienced several concerning incidents with the two coaches we had during the short time we…read moreattended. What became clear very quickly is that these are young instructors with little to no experience working with children and a limited understanding of how to handle common situations that arise in a pool setting. In one instance, as a "safety exercise" the coach had my 9-year-old daughter to swim with her eyes covered with the swim cap. After my daughter became visibly upset, cried, and explained that she felt anxious and her heart was racing, the coach continued to push the exercise. I asked the coach to let it go for the time being and she agreed, but minutes later told my daughter that she would have to do it next time regardless of how she felt. Anyone working with children, especially in a swimming environment, should have at least basic training in recognizing and responding appropriately to anxiety. The coach's approach showed a lack of understanding, empathy, and judgment. This experience was unacceptable. I would not recommend spending your money here. The school appears to invest very little in properly training and preparing its instructors to work with children.
