I am past 50 never learned to swim, in just 1 month I’ve learned to be comfortable with water, float & amateur swimming. I say amateur bc I’m not quite there yet but I’m pleased with my growth in just a short amount of time. The young instructors are extremely kind & patient & I look forward to my lessons.

The staff are friendly. However, the policies are bad, unreasonable and lack flexibility. The environment is just okay, and things easy go missing. The changing room is in poor shape.
