    If you have little kids that need to learn how to swim or get better at swimming this is the place…read moreto go! The highly qualified and certified coaches are awesome! There is also SplashBall (like waterpolo but for the youngsters) which is a great after school activity. The kids have a great time, learn new skills, and strengthen their swimming ability. If you're not sure your child will like it, go watch it one evening, you'll see how much fun the younger kids are having! For the older kids/teens there is Club Water Polo teams. This club is affiliated with USA Water Polo and the owner is an experienced college water polo coach. It's priced much cheaper than any other swim or polo clubs in the area!! Oh, and the pool is heated!!! Go check it yourself, you'll see this is a great way for your kiddos to get out some energy and some fun!!

    Our 4 year old son had his first swim class at Route 66 Aquatics in West Covina. He loved it so…read moremuch he talked about it the whole night after. There was multiple instructors and lifeguards monitoring the children at all times. All the instructors were super fun and patient with the little ones. After one class I feel our son learned a whole lot. Already looking into signing him up for his next set of lessons. This is a beautiful facility and loved watching our son learn and interact with the instructor. I was worried that our son would not pick up a whole lot since there was so many kids, however the instructors split up the class and spent a good amount of time with each kid. Great program that West Covina offers. I would highly recommend to anyone that is considering. Prior to this swim class I signed our son up elsewhere, and our son did not learn anything and the instructor at the time had zero patience and had terrible social skills. This location was complete opposite.

    This positive review is specifically for Coach Vayda. We…read moreallotted only 5 lessons with waterworks through my daughters homeschool charter and in those mere 5 lessons Vayda has done TREMENDOUS work with my daughter. She has a positive but firm demeanor. She is EXTREMELY patient and kind. My daughter went from lookin like a drowning starfish to a strong, controlled swimmer. Granted she still has a way to go but considering shes only had a few lessons I am just extremely impressed with how much she's improved and I feel that's a direct statement on how Vayda teaches. If you were on the fence about trying waterworks I can definitely say that Coach Vayda made this a worthwhile endeavor and if shes still with waterworks next year I may opt to re enroll my daughter for more lessons. Thank you Vayda for doing what you do. We appreciate you!

    We've had a wonderful experience at Waterworks and I even recommend it to my extended family,…read morefriends, and coworkers. My 5 year old has been receiving lessons for the past year and she absolutely loves going to swim class, and that's all thanks to Ms. Sarah. Ms. Sarah is kind, patient, engaging, and really understands how to work with young children. Every lesson is fun, intentional, and structured - with feedback and a recap towards the end of class. I've been so impressed with how much confidence and skill my child has gained in the water during this time.

    非常满意这家游泳馆!Blake校长非常专业很有耐心,会根据孩子的具体情况来调整教学方法,氛围也很轻松有趣,孩子每次上课都非常开心,进步也非常明显,环境非常整洁,工作人员服务态度也非常好,课程安排也很合…read more,值得推荐!! I'm very satisfied with this swimming pool! Principal Blake is very professional and patient. He will adjust the teaching method according to the specific situation of the child. The atmosphere is also very relaxed and interesting. The child is very happy in every class, and the progress is also very obvious. The environment is very clean, and the staff's service attitude is also very good. It is worth recommending!!

    I rarely leave negative reviews, but the sheer lack of professionalism and the blatant double…read morestandards at this swim school have forced my hand. 1) Hypocritical Cancellation Policy: They enforce a strict rule where students must request a sick day at least 24 hours in advance, or the class is completely forfeited. However, the school thinks it's perfectly acceptable to text you 2 hours before class to cancel on you without any advanced notice. The respect for time only goes one way here. 2) Constant, Questionable Cancellations: We have two kids enrolled with two different unfixed coaches. Yet, we have had classes canceled multiple times with the generic excuse that the "coach is sick." It is statistically impossible for two different coaches to be sick at the same exact time 4x in a row. On one occasion, we drove all the way there and showed up on time, only for the front desk to bluntly tell us, "We need to cancel your class today," with zero explanation. When we confronted the administration, they finally admitted they were just understaffed and they didn't update that on the system. So for the same time-slot, they only have one coach available for my 2 kids. Mind you, I paid 2 different packages for my 2 kids. They won't even let you share a package between siblings. 3) A Nightmare for Working Parents: so far, they have done nothing to fix their staffing problems, and every other week we receive yet another last-minute cancellation notice. As working parents, this constant instability completely throws off our schedules. Trying to constantly rearrange work and family logistics around their unreliability is exhausting. We paid in advance for these classes, but we can't even get them scheduled because the school is so unreliable with their staff team. To make matters worse, they have also increased their prices. For the terrible level of service and constant headaches they provide, their new rates are a complete joke. To be fair, we would only recommend this place because our coaches are nice.

    Grace is awesome!! She gave my 7 & 5 yr old private lessons summer of 2016. Prior to Grace, our…read moredaughters had years of lesson at Waterworks Irvine. We must have spent $1000+ but it did not work. 5yr old spent her lessons screaming and crying. It got very stressful and traumatic for ME! We also kept switching teachers at Waterworks...some were just not as good with kids. I've come to conclusion that places like Waterworks has a business model to keep you paying for lessons not necessarily getting your kids watersafe. Then we heard about Grace on the Irvine Mom Facebook board. I told her @ my 5 yr old. Immediately she CUSTOMIZED her teaching method and brought in toys. She is always smiling and calm with my daughters. And this is key with my 5 yr old who hated the pool. Grace also ask parents what the focus should be- swim safe or technique. Net net in just 2 months of private lessons- both girls love and ask to go to the pool. My 7 yr old can swim around by herself and my 5 yr old is no longer afraid. Plus Grace is super responsive with text & email, flexible with schedule changes. Other places are not. Only downside is I wish Grace had more Irvine hours. She splits her time her and San Gabriel Valley. I will definitely resume lessons with her the coming Spring.

    Fantastic swim teacher. She's patient and gives good feedback. A few lessons go a long way. I saw…read moreimprovement after just 1 lesson! Highly recommend. Book early - she gets booked up fast!

    We started swim classes in September of last year, but over the first several months there was…read moreminimal progress. Our child is particularly sensitive and anxious in the water, and likely needed a more tailored, confidence-based approach. We made an effort to encourage her to push through and stay consistent with the program. However, during that time her discomfort increased, and she became more resistant to participating in lessons--to the point where we were close to discontinuing classes altogether. We later had two or three makeup sessions with Stephanie, during which we observed clear and immediate improvement. After switching our regular schedule to a more suitable day for us and having Stephanie as the permanent instructor, the progress accelerated significantly. In less than a month, our child became noticeably more comfortable in the water. She no longer shows the same level of fear. This is not a reflection on the previous instructor's ability, but rather a difference in fit and teaching approach. The connection and method used by Stephanie have proven to be more effective for our child's needs. There was a recent comment from staff noting that our child does not meet Level 3 criteria. While we understand that evaluations follow established standards, our primary goal is water safety, confidence, and functional swimming ability. From that perspective, the progress made in the past month is substantial and meaningful, especially compared to the prior seven months, and it's largely thanks to Stephanie. Overall, we value the measurable improvement in our child's comfort and capability in the water.

    We're so grateful for Instructor Stephanie! She is so patient with my son and made every lesson…read morefun and encouraging. Even with just 1x/week lessons, she helped him gain confidence in the water and become water safe so quickly. Highly recommend Stephanie to any parent looking for a skilled, encouraging, and kind swim teacher!
