She was always punctual and came prepared with toys and equipment that made each lesson engaging and fun. Her sweet personality and calm energy immediately put both baby and parents at ease.

It was awesome to have the kids learn in our pool too as this made it super convenient to have the lessons- 12 lessons, 3 a week over one month and both my kids are safe swimmers now- my 6 yo can do all strokes independently and my 4 yo who was terrified- is now comfortable swimming independently in floaties, floating on her back, putting her face in and blowing bubbles, and practicing it all with little assistance.

I cannot recommend this swim school. We had two very different experiences with each of our…read morechildren...but it seems they have gone downhill since. Our oldest went through the program between 2019 - 2022. She had a great time and picked up a lot of great skills, progressing through each level at a normal pace. We pulled her out after she got to a certain point as her schedule started filling with other activities (and her overall swimming was strong) Our son started in summer of 2023 and ended up getting stuck in the first level between September - March, when we finally pulled him out. What was interesting was that he was able to perform the tasks on demand (even got positive remarks during assessments), but they refused to push him up to the next level. He had a much younger instructor than what my daughter went through, who spent more time reprimanding the kids than actually working with them. We were told he could move up as well, but they never went ahead and moved him to the next level, despite showing the proper skills. We pulled him out in March and moved him to another swim school, which he's progressed significantly since. Used to really love this place, not a fan anymore.

I have been looking for adult swim classes near me and I came across this place. I thought of…read moretrying it out. My first trial class with Jason (adult swim instructor) was amazing. In my 30 mins time - I made a lot of improvements and I was very happy. After the trial, I decided to take up a 6-month membership which includes 2 classes per week (overall cheaper). My only wish that if there would be a weekday option then it would be great.

Updated review for 2026:…read more Signed back up to save some money because I do like using their indoor track in the winter. The maintenance staff seems really small still and the building looks completely unkempt, outdated, and dirty. It smells, machines are old and feel scuzzy in the workout rooms. The spare rooms for stretching are fine but the workout schedules seem mostly geared for old people. Cancelling our membership because it feels like things just get worse here, unfortunately. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 2021 review: Disappointed post Covid quarantine. They are so understaffed abs there's no childcare help anymore. You must wear a mask to workout in the workout room and all the friendly staff I had formed relationships with are gone. I hope Buehler is able to recover and hire a bigger staff soon but until then I won't be returning.

I recently hosted my child's birthday party at the YMCA, and it was an absolute hit! The birthday…read moreparty room was spacious, providing a perfect setting for the celebration. The highlight was definitely the bouncy house, adding an extra element of fun for the kids. The basketball court, table tennis, cornhole, and treehouse offered a variety of activities, ensuring that every child had something exciting to engage in. The staff was attentive and ensured the safety of the kids while they enjoyed the facilities. There is also a separate play area for babies. There is something for everyone for various age groups. Another nice amenity for a party room is the separate eating area for parents to relax and socialize while the party was in full swing. It created a comfortable space for adults to unwind, chat, and enjoy the festivities from a distance. Overall, the YMCA provided an excellent venue for a kids' birthday party, combining a diverse range of activities with a welcoming atmosphere. Highly recommended!

Although, the staff here say its open in the evenings when mon- fri, there are swim lessons held here. This pool isn't open in the morning or afternoons during the week either.

After 8 years as a customer I've decided to go elsewhere. My daughter went thru the program…read morewithout many issues. My son, however, has been slower to learn. After the 3rd time taking the same class, I was denied the "swimmers guaranteed". Which states that if your swimmer repeats a level 2x they will be offered assistance the 3rd time. If they have to repeat the level a 4th time, it's is supposed to be "on us". I'm being told that because two of my sons attempts at the level were "camps" ie 4x a week for 2 weeks and 4x a week for a month, that I didn't qualify for extra help in his 3rd go round because "camps don't count" and likewise the 4th "on us" session per the technicality. I have been at the school for numerous turnovers that have directly affected the quality and consistency of their programs. I have never once complained. Now, when my son is struggling, I have been shown no understanding or treatment like a valued customer of 8 years. Shame on you.

Overestimate a swim teacher, and somebody could drown. I feel confident giving Foss 5 stars. We have had several teachers over the weeks for various reasons and almost all have been really great. Julia, Jennifer, Dayonara and Jeremy have all been fantastic. My kids have made such great progress, it is mind blowing. They seem a little pricey but there are options to keep costs down if you can be flexible with your schedule. And frankly, all swim schools may be pricey now, I have no idea. It is always clean, and safe. Everybody is in such a good mood. A great environment for kids. Highly recommended.
