We did a free trial…read moreclass at another swimming lessons business, but we were not impressed with the structure or location (it was located behind a building, thru a rear door, inside a gym). When we got to our first lesson at Aqua Tots, we knew we made the right choice. At only a couple dollars more per lesson, this place seemed like a 5 star luxury resort in comparison. The staff is so friendly. There is a large changing area with separate bathrooms, there are blow dryers available, and also a swim suit drying machine!! The swim suit dryer was very impressive!! They have a very comfortable sitting area for family to sit and watch their child in class without having to sit in a stuffy, hot / humid pool room... Instead, parents can kick back in a comfortable chair in the air conditioning. As a bonus- They offer complimentary water and snacks for the students & parents. We love Aqua Tots! I highly recommend to anyone!

We had our daughter here for only a few months and had a few bad experiences. The reason we ended…read moreup canceling our membership was because of our last session, my almost 5 year old daughter was in her lesson when I looked down for one minute and looked up and she was crying and standing on the step looking at me while the instructor was with another child. I got up right away and ended up walking into the pool area to help her because the instructor was with the other child in her group. The instructor didn't say she saw anything. My daughter cried the whole way home and had a hard time calming down. She never wanted to go again but couldn't tell me what exactly happened. We canceled since we weren't going to force her to go. Well, a month later swim lessons got brought up and she just now told me that she didn't wanna go back to swim lessons because she almost drowned in the water. She said she went under water and couldn't find the wall. I am writing this review now to warn parents please don't take your child here if you are serious about teaching them to swim. It's not worth it and the groups are too big for them to learn anything anyway and the way they just have the other kids sit by the wall while the instructor is with one child at a time just seems unsafe.

Sooo, we really liked coming here for about a month. We had coach Cory Saturday at 10am and we…read moreloved him. He was attentive and took the necessary time to explain, and even had comments at the end for each individual swimmer. My son looked forward to coach Cory. One Saturday they switched over to coach Katie (I believe, I can't see a history) and she had someone with her to train maybe? They sped through everything in about 10 minutes....these classes are $25. There was no comments at the end, nothing. On top of everything these two girls talked and messed around the entire time. I tried again the following Saturday and it was the same girls. This time they had fake babies they had found and apparently named. They were throwing them at each-other and just playing with these babies the whole time and again speeding through everything while taking care of a fake baby. It was all very unprofessional and childish and awkward. This is a job, not a hang out sesh with your bestie. I ended up canceling because even my son did not like coach Katie.

We have had such a great experience with Big Blue Swim School! We've been going since April, and I…read morecan't believe how much Hailey has learned in such a short amount of time. She can now swim in the deep end, swim all the way to the bottom to retrieve sinking toys, swim back up to the surface, and make her way over to the ledge. She's still learning, of course, but she has a really good foundation of swimming skills now, and I feel SO much more confident in her being around the water. What I really love is that Hailey actually looks forward to her swim classes. The class sizes are small, and the instructors do a great job of communicating with me about her progress--what she's accomplished, what skills she's working on, and what she still needs to learn. I never feel like I'm left wondering how she's doing. And honestly, the entire staff is just so friendly. Every time we walk in, someone is saying hi and smiling, and there's always such a positive atmosphere. Even the manager is out in the lobby playing games with the kids while they wait. He definitely doesn't have to do that, but he does it anyway because he's just a cool dude. Little things like that really stand out to me and make Big Blue feel like a place where the staff genuinely enjoys being around the kids. We've had nothing but good experiences here. Between the small classes, great communication, friendly staff, and how much Hailey has grown as a swimmer, I really can't recommend Big Blue enough. It's truly an exceptional swim school, and I'm so glad we chose them! ‍

I have now signed up both my toddler and baby girl in weekly swim lessons here. Both their trials…read morewent very well and I didn't hesitate to sign up for the following reasons: 1. Facility is very clean and obviously kid friendly. The reception area is nice with some other fun activities for kids to get into while their sibling or other family member is taking a swim class. 2. Instructors are pretty decent. The instructors we've had so far for my 7 month old's class have been quite impressive and really know how to handle babies and how to make the class fun but also progress in their pool safety training. My son really enjoys his class with his Coach Ethan. That kid definitely knows how to make a class fun and inviting for toddlers. 3. Classes are very intimate as they don't go over 3 kids per class. My son has had mostly private classes lately as other kids have not really joined his time slot, which is wonderful in my opinion so he gets that 1x1 coaching. 4. The ease of scheduling via their app and their text messaging system. Very responsive!
