We love Aquasafe! They got both our kids water safe in a few months and now our children are excellent swimmers as they continue to build upon and develops strong swimming form and skills. We tell everyone to bring their kids to Aquasafe, it’s one of the best investments you can make as a parent in your child for safety and life skills!

This is the best place you can ever take your kid to learn swimming. I have started both my kids, 3 and 5 years old who has never been to swimming classes and they thoroughly enjoyed as well as learned frontfloat,back float,roll back,roll over, kicks in 2 months. Most of the instructors are great and Jess is the best. My younger one was reluctant to keep his head in the water and just did her magic and he was keeping his head in the water and kicking in just two classes. We live in California and we were visiting Arizona for a couple months and this is one of the best decisions,to join my kids here while we were in AZ. Its very unfortunate that we couldnt finish my kids to be water safe as we had to move back, however the two months experience we had was amazing. I have no complaints or I will be surprised if anyone has any complaints in this swimming classes. The classes are so well organized, they have a very clear process ,steps and stages to progress the kids. Once we are back to California San Diego, Im having really hard time to find a swimming school that is at least half good as aqua safe is. I have changed my kids three swimming schools so far with no luck. Just so my kids can learn swimming from this school, I wish I could stay in Arizona for a while. They have a life guard always on watch as well. BEST PLACE TO TEACH YOUR KIDS SWIMMING.

We have had all of our kids swim with Aquasafe and couldn’t be happier! The entire team that works here truly cares and they are so knowledgeable. This starts with the owners and it filters all the way throughout their company. We cannot say enough great things about the people here as they are what makes this business stand apart from any others. We encourage anyone looking for swim lessons to go here!

We absolutely LOVE AquaSafe! All of the coaches are so great with our son and he has enjoyed working with every single one of them that have coached him. Going to swim class is our son’s highlight of each week and he always has a little mental countdown of how many days he has until his next class. We always look forward to coming in to see their smiling faces. It is very obvious that they all truly enjoy their jobs there and that they are passionate about it.Right now, during the global pandemic, I always feel so safe going there. They have done such an excellent job with opening safely and making sure that each of their swimmers and their families are safe and still coming into a clean and sanitized environment. The coaches even wear masks in the water with their swimmers!! Wow! They have set my expectations very high for other facilities we will be taking our son to during the pandemic.I have to give a BIG shout out to coaches Brayden and Logan. They have been the coaches for our son most often and they are just fantastic with him. We are so thrilled to have chosen such a great swim school for our son, and we can’t wait to take our next little one there when he’s old enough for the baby classes! Thank you AquaSafe!

We love AquaSafe Scottsdale! The staff is incredibly caring and helpful. The facility is always presentable and clean. It’s easy to schedule and change lessons. And the instructors are all absolutely amazing. They make learning to swim fun! We particularly love Coach Curtis, Coach Mary and Coach Justin! We highly recommend them for all levels and ages.

I have taken 3 of my grandchildren to AquaSafe Swim School in Scottsdale – from 18 months – 6 years old. The swim coaches have always been amazing, both with teaching skills and having the ability to make my grandchildren feel completely at ease with them. The pool is large, warm, the facilities are clean, there’s a great viewing gallery for parents, the staff is attentive, they provide individual reports on each student and offer make-up sessions if you miss a class. One of the best things is that they offer condensed 2-week sessions every summer where your swimmer will go every weekday for 2 weeks. This concentrated learning experience is a fantastic way to prep for the summer swim season. During Covid, they have made every effort to keep their facility safe for swimmers and families – they keep the viewing gallery socially-distanced, they have adjusted their entrance and exit process, everyone gets their temperature checked upon entry, and coaches wear masks (as does the staff and parents). I highly recommend AquaSafe Swim School!

I love Aquasafe Swim School. My daughter has been going since last June. They are doing such a great job keeping everyone safe as well as teaching kids the proper way to swim, almost perfection which I never expected. The staff are very nice, friendly, and knowledgeable. The class has a limited number of swimmer per class nowadays so even better than ever! We love the Manager/Coach Curtis, Coach Bailey and Logan! You are awesome!🤩 I highly recommend this school!😎

We love Aqua Safe Swim School!!! We have been going there faithfully for the last ten years. It is an excellent, caring environment for you children to really learn how to swim literally from soup to nuts. They have become excellent technicians and really refined swimmers. Our children started at 10 mo and 4 years old respectively. Now they are 11 and 14 yos old. They are excellent confident swimmers, have participated on swim teams and in meets and really love swimming. I think the best part was about three years ago when we went swimming in the open ocean. They boys were such strong swimmers that despite being the youngest in the group, they held their own compared to the adults. They really teach the kids how to learn a bit more week after week. It all comes together beautifully. We cannot say enough great things about it!

Our two kids have been going to this school for over 6 years - our youngest started as a baby in their Bubbles class and our oldest is now in Junior Squads. The instructors are fantastic, the teaching at each level is consistent, and they are extremely flexible with changing schedules. Most importantly, they have taken strong measures to protect each swimmer, family member and instructor since opening up during the pandemic. Absolutely would recommend AquaSafe to any family looking for a quality swim school!

AquaSafe had been amazing. Ive started taken my 7 month old and the coaches are great. Coach Ashley is my daughters coach and she is amazing with my baby girl. Coach Mary is amazing and the front desk staff too. ❤️ Its safe and everyone wears masks. Truly grateful to have this facility during covid. I feel safe bringing my daughter to AquaSafe.

We love aqua safe-the coaches are so kind and skilled. Our first born attended swim classes from 8 weeks old and learned to swim safely when he was a little over three years old. Now our second born just learned to roll over in the water on his own and he just turned two! I highly recommend Aqua Safe!

We have been coming here for a couple years and never had any issues. All of the coaches are great and personally get to know the kids. Highly recommend if you are interested in getting swim lessons for your kids.Swim lessons are broken down by skill level and the kids get medals everytime they move up. They also offer free lessons for newborn babies and parents.

AquaSafe is a top notch swim school and every instructor my daughter and son has worked with has shown professionalism, patience, kindness and most importantly...has encouraged fun! Our family has taken classes at both locations in Gilbert and Scottsdale and I would recommend both. I love the stadium seating where parents can comfortably watch their child’s lesson through the glass, but above all, children are encouraged to reach different levels and are awarded for each level or milestone reached, so AquaSafe also sets attainable goals for each child to reach. They have a little ribbon ceremony and they get their picture taken after mastering a level. My daughter set out to compete on their swim team and her instructor helped her to attain her goal. If your child has special needs, they can also help in that department too! All the instructors have training. Living in Arizona, with a pool in every backyard, teaching our children about water safety and giving them the opportunity to learn how to swim is of the upmost importance to us as a family and we feel blessed to have found an affordable swim school to help our family reach our goals. Thank you AquaSafe!

Before coming to AquaSafe we had tried a very similar swim school. AquaSafe is worlds better than the other school. Their instructors are great at not only teaching kids the important skills but at also making it a fun experience. In no time our daughter had the confidence and skills to swim without her floaties. I would recommend AquaSafe to anyone! (Side Note: they have also been amazing during COVID-19 and have taken several precautions so that our kids can continue to learn in a safe environment!)

As someone who took the quarantine seriously since mid-March, I put great thought into whether to keep my kids enrolled in their previously-scheduled summer mini sessions. I am SO glad I put my trust in AquaSafe, as our experience exceeded my expectations.Because the classes were small, instructors wore masks/shields, temperature checks were taken, disinfecting constantly occurred, and protocols regarding entry and dismissal were thoughtful and well-executed, I felt completely comfortable with swim lessons being the only activity my kids were able to enjoy outside the home this summer. We have continued weekly lessons now, and although class sizes are going back to normal and changing rooms are available again (although spaced apart), I still feel that the staff is taking safety seriously and keeping the place as clean as possible.Beyond all the COVID challenges, the instructors have all been fabulous, including Jess, Ally, Dani, Mary, Joanna, Ryan, Justin, Noah, Dane, Curtis, and Logan—as well as several others we’ve had here and there. We’ve been going to AquaSafe for several years now! While going every day for multiple mini sessions this summer, both of my children (ages 3 & 5) advanced TWO levels each within three months! I couldn’t be more pleased with their progress, thanks to the coaches’ support and attention to detail, especially in higher levels of trying to get a stroke or position “just right.”I highly recommend AquaSafe for your children! This is Arizona, and with so many pools around, it’s essential to get kids water-safe as soon as possible. The instructors here will get them there.

My daughter has been coming to this school for almost 2 years. From the actual facility itself, to the staff (which has very little turnover) everything is an A+ 5 Star. All of the coaches are fantastic swimers which makes it all the more easy to transfer the knowledge they have to their students in a way they can understand it.

I’m not a huge review person unless I’ve had exceptionally good service or exceptionally bad service. With that being said, Aquasafe went above and beyond for our family and I could not be more thankful!I initially contacted Aquasafe for our 4 1/2 year old son and 18 month old daughter. Being in a home with a pool and around water often it was extremely important to me that we get our kids in lessons so they would have the skills they need should they happen to fall into water and need to get out on their own. (We have fencing but I think swimming is an important skill anyway) I signed my son up for a trial class for last night and our daughter for a class this morning at 10 am.Last night we brought our son to a trial class and he was absolutely TERRIFIED. He refused to even get near the water and ended up in tears. I thought for sure we’d never get him into swimming lessons after last night. After a few minutes of them trying to get him to join the class (super nice people, they were so sweet to him) I went in and got him and thought for sure he was scarred for life and we’d never get him back there. Nope- Aquasafe made arrangements for our son to take private lessons AT THE SAME TIME as I was in the water with our 18 month old. They allowed us to have his nanny in class with him to make him more comfortable. They told him he could just sit on the side for the first day if that’s all he wanted to do so he would be comfortable going back today. Amazingly enough his instructor Mary had him in the water within a few minutes. 🙏🏼I really cannot say enough positive about our experience at Aquasafe- Ashley is also incredible and my 18 month old warmed up to her in minutes. You can tell they only employ THE BEST swim instructors who have a genuine passion for children. I’m so excited to go back next week with our kids and to see how they progress over the next few months!Thank you guys so much! You are the best!

This is a great place for your kids to learn how to swim and be safe around water. They teach skills so they not only know how to swim but what to do if you accidentally fall into a pool. The staff really cares about the kids and go beyond expectations. They are also very patient with them. During these crazy COVID times they are keeping everyone safe with masks and social distancing.

Just left our last swim class and felt the need to share. We started bringing our girls here as babies to learn pool survival. Now our 5 year old is learning proper swim technique. With a pool in every back yard we feel a peace of mind because of AquaSafe. We have also felt comforted by their high commitment to public health practices. We feel like they are really doing everything right above and beyond in terms of making families feel safe.

Aquasafe is a great swim school. My son started swimming here 3 years ago and I love the structure, instructors, and family vibe they have amongst each other. The staff is so helpful and polite. I also appreciate that they are well staffed. I’ve never felt like the experience was lacking because they didn’t have enough people or the classes were too big.Even through Covid, they were early to implement standards of practice to not only keep everyone safe but also informed as to why they were taking the steps they were, allowing me to feel confident that they we would not be open if they couldn’t protect my swimmer and their staff!If you’re looking for a great place for swim lessons I highly recommend this company.

AquaSafe is a fantastic place for your child to learn to swim. Our 5 year old son has attended AquaSafe for the last 2 years and is now a very competent swimmer thanks to all of the wonderful coaches he’s been lucky enough to swim under.While we continue to learn to adapt to living through the pandemic we have started attending AquaSafe once more and I believe it is 100% Covid-safe. Temperature checks are taken as you enter, the changing rooms are not in use, you leave the premises from a different door to the one you enter, there is social distancing in the seating area and even the coaches wear masks in the pool! Even the owner walks around the place looking like a Ghostbuster with a backpack on spraying all touch surfaces!Special shout out to Coach Curtis who is our son’s current coach. His coaching ability is second to none!

We’ve been doing here for almost 2 years. Our son loves coming to swim lessons, he knows when I’m home early that it is swim class day, and he gets very excited. The coach’s have been amazing! Sadly we’ve had a couple different coach’s due to schedule conflicts. However the coaches he’s been with the longest are Paige and Celeste. They are amazing coaches! I’m sure the other coach’s are just as great and attentive. There has always been a smiling face at the front desk or concession when we came for our sons swim lesson. The seating area for the parents to watch the kids looks nice. I haven’t had the opportunity to sit and wait, my son is still in the parent participation class. It’s nice to being in the pool showing him the basics with the coach giving pointers. Soon he will move on to the next group and I will be able to watch. There is also a nice little play area for kids waiting on a sibling or waiting for their class to start. Every week my son seems to pick up on something new or is able to hold his breath a little longer. Thank you Paige and Celeste for help my son and giving us pointers/goals for us to work on between lessons. I’m excited to see what my son learns next!At Halloween they have a fun little even for the kids to show their costumes and walk through a haunted “house”/room. This past Halloween the coaches that didn’t have a class even dressed up and made it fun.

Terrible experience. My wife just received a phone call from Linda and she was very impolite and frankly rude. We spent half an hour yesterday reading their website yesterday and left a message with some questions. We liked that the company was family owned. Everything sounded great and we were ready to sign our kids up until the very gruff phone call with Linda. Get someone who is happy and enthused. When a customer says Hi, how are you. At least respond and ask how they are back. DEPLORABLE.

Wow - what an amazing experience we have had with Aqua Safe. I brought my 8 year old twins here. They had both been to countless other swimming lessons but neither could swim and one of them was absolutely terrified to even go in the water. The first day I brought him, he started crying. The teacher immediately had him laughing and feeling comfortable in the water on the first day. Within 2 weeks, he was completely water safe! I cant thank them enough. All of teachers and staff are friendly and helpful! Thanks!

We love AQUASAFE. We have been with them since our daughter was just over a year old. She is now 6. She is an amazing swimmer and has been for years now. The coaches are fabulous and have made swimming so fun for her. I would highly recommend them to anyone. We briefly left to try another swim school closer to our house. After just one lesson elsewhere we immediately returned. The difference was quite noticeable. We have referred many friends to Aquasafe whom have all been thrilled.

We tried other swim schools before finding Aquasafe. I was so happy when we found Aquasafe and we have been going there for the past 5 years. The instructors are experienced and wonderful. Lessons are very organized. The facility is really nice. There are comfy chairs for the parents to sit in and watch. Parents are on the other side of the glass from the pool. So, you dont hear the noise or get splashed. There is a snack bar with a pretty good selection of snacks and kid food (mac and cheese, hotdogs, nachos). Also, every kid has show and tell every couple of months to show the parents what he/she has learned. At that time they also get a progress report. Everyone who works there is super nice and love making kids feel special. Dont go anywhere else. Aquasafe is the best!
