He inquired politely-- Hi, those are my sunglasses, I forgot them here yesterday. (They were distinctive & bent, not likely to be two pairs in the same locker room.)

This pool is closed to the public during the school year but is open during June/July/August. Most…read moreof the pool is reserved for swim team training in the center deep section during open hours, and for families with children on one of the shallow ends. The shallow end that is closest to tree shade is reserved for a mix of open classes and "lap swimmers". Since you are going across the pool it's less than 25 yards. In terms of depth, remember this is a shallow end of the pool so there's a limited strip which is greater than 6 feet deep. During the summer I took up lap swimming alongside full blown lessons. For a lot of the instruction, adult/children learners were hanging off the side doing drills so it was still manageble to find straight lines for swimming laps. The problem with the pool is it is not that clean. Murky-ish water and hair multiple times came up. There is no rule about swimming caps. The lifeguards feel the need to come wash their feet in the pool just as we are swimming there. The optics and the feeling of being in someone's bathwater are gross. As well I don't enjoy the shallow end for swimming. The best part of this pool is its location near trees and the cubicles for individual changing with benches and a hook. As well, I made some friends among the regular learners who came every day to put in practice time. I enjoyed my swim friends. Now that school is back in session, City of LA Parks and Rec have shut down the pool entirely to the public. It's a shame because if they were to keep it open at the weekends to the public, it would be a source of heat relief for regular families during LA'S hottest months of the year, September and October. Really LA City Parks and Rec could be cognizant of low and middle class people who don't have private pools and rely on municipal pools like this one to stay cool during these life-threatening brutal heatwaves.

Since working with her, their confidence has grown tremendously.. not only in the pool, but outside of it as well! Dexter has such a gentle, patient, and encouraging teaching style that immediately made my girls feel safe and comfortable. What once felt intimidating to them has become something they genuinely look forward to each week. Their skills have improved so much, but even more importantly, their love for swimming has blossomed! We are incredibly grateful for the positive impact Dexter has had on both of our daughters. She has created a supportive environment where they feel confident, capable, and excited to learn. I highly recommend Dexter to any parent looking for a kind, knowledgeable, and wonderful swim instructor!

I had an extremely frustrating and unprofessional experience at this pool today. I was denied entry…read morebecause the staff disapproved of the shorts I was wearing. What made the situation completely unacceptable and invasive was that the cashier actually reached out and physically touched the shorts while I was wearing them to 'check the material.' Regardless of the facility's dress code policies, this kind of behavior is inappropriate and demeaning. I expected a basic level of professional conduct, but instead, I felt uncomfortable and disrespected. I would not recommend visiting this location if you expect to be treated with any basic level of decency.

I love this place! This is where I learned how to swim in 3rd grade as part of their PUSD program…read more I'll always have fond memories of this place. Their facilities are top-tier, they have three different pools, two jacuzzis, and a small gym for those looking for a hybrid workout. It's in a beautiful location, situated in the middle of Lower Arroyo. It's very easy to find parking, the staff is always helpful and nice, and there's always something to do. Lap swim, family swim, diving and swim classes for adults and children, and so many other programs. This place is a gem in Pasadena and Southern California overall!

My son has had several coaches so far, all the way from 13-14 bronze to Senior 2. Coach Jordan, Coach Katie, and Coach Alex have played a pivotal role in my son's development. I just started taking swim lessons from RBAC. My experience has been fantastic from the scheduling of lessons to the actual swim lessons. Riley Wilcox has done a great job of communicating with me all through the process of getting a weekly time slot. My swim lessons have been going very well. Thanks to Benjamin, Pedro, and Ethan! They have helped me build confidence in freestyle and reaching my goal (using freestyle to do lap swim for exercise). Ethan Nava is my weekly instructor. He has been instrumental in my development. As a great coach, he has guided me, been patient, and has helped build my confidence. Ethan knows how to coach adults. He explains first, then demonstrates, then gives me feedback on my swimming. I highly recommend taking swim lessons from RBAC as an adult or child and having your child join the Rose Bowl Swim team.

This review is long overdue, but I finally learned the name of the young man who made such a…read morelasting impression on my family. Over the last few months, I visited several times, and each time there was a young employee named Vardges who consistently went above and beyond. He was incredibly helpful, patient, and genuinely kind -- the sort of person who doesn't just do his job well but quietly elevates the entire atmosphere around him. What stood out most was the way he interacted with my young daughter. His patience and warmth toward her were sincere and unwavering, and that kind of care stays with a parent. It certainly stayed with me. People like Vardges make a real difference in their community, often without realizing it. I truly hope he gets the recognition he deserves. Thank you, Vardges, for setting such a wonderful example and for making every visit better than the last.
