These guys have a great attitude, instruct in a way that let's you understand the why and really focus on teaching defense, not just how to score points at a tourney. Great with children and adults alike. If you have ever thought about martial arts, check them out.

My 8 year old daughter has been doing it for five months and it has helped with her coordination, focus and self-confidence. I can't wait until our two year old can start. I highly recommend this extracurricular activity! Also, I LOVE that it is located in my neighborhood so we can walk. Too often we were driving 30 min south or north for activities.

My wife and I became Open Water certified through the Playground Dive Shop. I have lots of…read morewater-related anxiety and was concerned how I would do, but I was determined to try because I wanted to Scuba dive on our first trip to Hawaii. Our instructor, Chad, is one of the most patient teachers I've met. He worked with me and made our classes fit what I felt comfortable doing until I was able to do all the skills, pushing me just enough to try, but not so much to get discouraged. He spent the time to make sure didn't just learn the skills, but felt comfortable with them before our open water dives. He even went the extra mile to make we we had enough pool time to get make the open water trip that was scheduled before our vacation. We were so happy with them (and discovered we LOVE scuba) that we have since gone back for our Advanced certification and a handful of specialty classes to help us be better divers and pursue other interested aspects of diving. We've also taken a diving trip with them, and Jenn worked hard to make sure everything was in order and that our traveling and diving experience was the best, and it was. Beyond the training the dive shop staff have been great to work with as we've tried to get the gear and service we need. I'd recommend Playground Dive Shop to anyone looking for new certifications or equipment.

The facility is conveniently located near the Grandview Triangle, but it's a bit run down -- the five diamonds are not maintained in the best of shape, and the parking lot is gravel. Field 5 on the west side of the complex is the nicest (and largest) of the fields -- a full-sized diamond for regulation play, with covered stands. I had a "Church of Baseball" moment there, walking up the steps and through a tunnelly breezeway that opens out into a view of the green field. However, be aware that the steps don't make it friendly for folks with mobility issues. Also, the concessions and restrooms are convenient if you're on fields 1-4, but you're in for a hike across that gravel parking lot if you're on 5.

She took the time to overcome my fears of diving by teaching safety first and helping me understand how to not panic in the unlikely event something might go wrong. By covering those fears, I was able to enjoy my ocean dives and the peacefulness and undeniable beauty that an ocean dive brings. I have now had at least a dozen dives starting at 15 feet and working my way down to 100 feet and feeling comfortable at all levels. I am looking forward to my next dive trip with Scuba Explorers coming up soon. These trips are not only fantastic underwater but the comraderie and enjoyment Leslie's group of people share on a trip to the exotic places is unbelievable, I highly recommend Leslie O'Neill as an instructor and trip coordinator.
