    As someone who travels extensively & has been to many pools, in many states with my kid, this was…read morehands down the worst! Went for the recreation swimming, complete waste of time & money, thankfully it was only $5, so not much money wasted. Swimming facilities are ok, nothing special. But if your young child can't swim yet, don't even bother wasting your time. They micromanage you with a bunch of rules. No life jackets allowed which is INSANE. Front desk lady tried to gaslight me & say that's a normal policy in most places which it is NOT. She needs to get out more. I've been all across the country & not one other places I've been to has ever had that rule, in fact it's the opposite in most places--non-swimmers are REQUIRED to wear them. So basically my kid couldn't do anything but sit there hanging on the edge of the pool. I tried to walk around the pool with her on my back, again, like I do everywhere else & they said I can't do that either. I couldn't swim cuz I had to watch my child at all times just hanging on the edge of the pool. Not fun at all. Locked rooms are only 18+, so couldn't use that either cuz my kid is with me. Just a bunch of pointless weird rules & micromanaging that doesn't exist anywhere else I've ever seen. Save your money & time & go somewhere else. We ended up just going to raging waters where we have season passes, she can wear life jackets allowed, & we have way more fun.

    Because mom was a competitive swimmer, all my boys had to learn to swim all 4 strokes…read more Mission accomplished with all my boys thanks to San Dimas swim lessons. They have been coming here since they were all 9months old. Throughout the years my older boys joined the San Dimas swim team which is so awesome and a great team. Now my last little Liam, is finally ready to be in a competitive team all thanks to the LA county life guards at San Dimas.

    Very nice pool. Lifeguards everywhere and are very attentive. Super clean facility. Not at all…read moreexpensive. I only wish they had open swim for more days

    We came here for the water tots class (ages 3-5) and we are very impressed with the instructors…read morehere. They make the class fun with singing, games, and toys so that students get used to the environment and feel comfortable with each other. But it doesn't stop there; they also incorporate one to two skills per class, and my daughter has a lot of fun (which to us was the most important part). The swim classes run for 30 minutes each session, and that is a good amount of time for a 3-year-old's attention span. Prices are also pretty fair; $65 for 2 weeks (for residents), and they run Monday through Friday for a group class. The class had 7 kids with 2 swim instructors, and I was glad to see them co-teach. Parents and family members can sit on the shaded area and watch their kids learn how to swim. They also have multiple life guards watching the area so we feel pretty safe with the kids in the pool. I also see other higher level classes going on as well as the private one-on-one swim lessons. I only wish I knew about the registration times earlier on so I can sign up for multiple sessions in the summer. Registrations begin as early as May and I didn't sign up until July. Now I know for next year! Definitely coming back again.

    This facility was 30 years in the planning and creation and was finally completed, costing over 65…read moremillion. Good for the new generation of Cal Poly Pomona college staff and students to have a beautiful facility compared to what I and others tolerated back in the 80's. This facility is better than other Division 1 programs in the country, especially in the midwest region. The students who toured us around were Hospitality and Restaurant Management majors, surprised that there wasn't any collaborative agreements with Kinesiology & Health Promotion but then again, this doesn't surprise me. The HRM people, even back in my day were on top of things, progressive, and well prepared. This is a reflection of what this facility has become. I am very pleased with the results and how clean everything is. I hope outsiders will take advantage of this place vs going to a local health club or YMCA.

    Love this new facility! Best gym around, with a four story rock climbing wall at the entrance. It…read moreincludes a full gym with a great view of the surrounding campus, indoor track, indoor hockey, volleyball, basketball, racket ball and pool! There are several hammocks around the pool area-- PERFECT place for nap time ;). In the locker rooms, there are enough showers and free lockers for everyone to use (except during the early evenings when it's the most packed, the free lockers may be taken up). There are also free group classes like Zumba and yoga for all members of the BRIC! Have a great workout and put your sweat on!
