About
Goldfish Swim School - Winter Garden provides a unique learn-to-swim experience for children aged 4 months to 12 years. They offer highly trained instructors, small class sizes, and a proprietary curriculum in a fun, friendly, and safe environment designed to build water safety skills and confidence.
The pools at Goldfish Swim School - Winter Garden are maintained at a consistent and comfortable temperature of 90 degrees Fahrenheit (32 degrees Celsius), ensuring a shiver-free experience for all swimmers.
What are people saying (AI review summary)? Goldfish Swim School Winter Garden generally receives highly positive feedback, with many parents praising the patient, encouraging, and fun instructors (like Skylar, Katrina, and Tori) who help children, even those initially fearful, build comfort and confidence in the water. Children often show rapid progress, look forward to classes, and feel safe and happy. The front desk staff, like Kyla, are also commended for being welcoming and helpful. However, some criticisms include the school's slower pace, with children moving up based on age rather than physical progress, which can make it feel costly without significant skill changes. Other concerns raised were a less welcoming initial experience compared to other Goldfish locations and issues with family swim, such as chemicals being added during limited hours and staff needing better training on RSVP requirements.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We absolutely love Goldfish Swim School Winter Garden! My three-year-old has always loved the water, but since starting here his comfort and confidence with swimming has truly blossomed. The instructors are amazing, so patient, encouraging, and fun. He looks forward to every class and lights up when he sees his teachers. The progress he has made in just a short time has been incredible, and most importantly, he feels safe and happy in the water. We couldn’t be more grateful for such a positive and supportive swim school!

My daughter went here from when she was 1 to about 1 and a half. Our swim instructor Katrina was the best ever!! She was so sweet and caring. My daughter always had a smile on her face while in the water and Miss Katrina definitely had such a great impact on all the babies and parents that were in our class. The young lady at the front desk, Kyla, was always so welcoming and fixed any problem we ever had. So sad to see them both go. :( At our last swim lesson, we had swim instructor Tori, and she was such an angel!! As far as progress goes, this is a slower paced school based off they only move up with age, and not physical progress. That part is why I gave it a 4/5 star rating because it does get pretty costly after a while without being able to see a big change in your child as far as skills go. Every week is the same thing over and over until they move up to the next class, even if your child already has got the skills down pat.

I am extremely impressed with this establishment. Currently, our 4-year-old daughter is enrolled in the jump-start swim class, which takes place from Tuesday through Friday, with each session lasting 30 minutes. From the front desk staff to the swim instructors, everyone has displayed a remarkable level of expertise, empathy, and assistance. Discovering this place has truly been a blessing, and we are thrilled to witness our daughter's rapid progress here. Without hesitation, I would highly recommend this place to others.

I had a membership for Goldfish in a different state we were given a tour and a welcome ribbon. My son and I got neither to welcome for $120 swim classes here. Then we show up to use family swim and they put chemicals into the pool during the short limited hours they even offer it. Update: if you need to rsvp to family swim then staff need better training to inform members that not just give a flyer of hours of availability that isnt accurate.

LOVE Skylar!! We did the Jump Start classes for my daughter, and my daughter loved her! She is amazing with children! She was afraid to swim before, and by Day 2 she had her swimming by herself already! I couldn’t believe it! I am so happy and am continuing classes because my daughter keeps begging to go now lol. Thank you so much to Skylar and all the staff!
