Testimonials

I was skeptical about the cost when looking into this option for swim lessons, but after others singing their praises and attending our first session, I am HAPPY to continue investing in our child this way. Wow. They not only have a beautiful, well-maintained facility, but their staff could not be nicer. And even outside of all of that, I love how our son has already learned something (and he got a little ribbon that night that we hung on the fridge), we got direct feedback that day on his progress, and the follow-up has been incredible with an email about his growth and next steps. I'm blown away. They really have the system down to make parents feel included, understood, and part of the process in their swimmer's development. I see us being part of the Goldfish Swim School community for a long time. Thank you!

I personally think that Goldfish Swim School is one of the best swim schools in the Greenwood area. Goldfish has helped both of my daughters grow into the swimmers they are today.

Great learning environment. Each child goes at their own pace.

My 8 year old now swims around the deep 8' end of the pool on her own. Took a good 30 min for me to hold back and leave her alone, but Goldfish made it happen by Pro 1 (she made it to Pro 2).

This is a very impressive swim school. I would recommend them especially as an option when public pools are not open or accessible including being available for lessons. They are well organized, very knowledgeable and professional. All of the swim instructors were patient and kind with their students no matter what the age.

I love Goldfish. My daughter started about a year ago and has gone from a kid absolutely terrified of the water to one that swims better than me (and then some!). She looks like such a natural out there, and the instructors are patient with her on days when she's feeling anxious or frustrated. For fellow loners and neurodivergent adults like myself (or if you have a neurodivergent child), a warning: Coming here at a busy time slot is a nightmare. Adults will attempt to save seats, block changing rooms or the bathroom during transitions, will loiter by the hair drying station (making it impossible to dry your kids hair), or will try to barge through to the swimming area at inappropriate times. The other day I watched an older women bang on the glass, yell and then wildly gestate her arms to the employees on the other side because she couldn't see her granddaughter: the irony is that class was already over so there was nothing to see. The kids are better behaved than most of the parents and grandparents, in all honestly. I highly recommend coming armed with noise-cancelling headphones and a book, and maybe coming in a little early to get yourself and/or your child situated if you know you'll need it. I wish employees did more to keep the sitting area orderly, but I've been in customer-facing jobs for most of my adult life and I know how fruitless and soul-sucking it can be to deal with adults like this. It's not worth getting screamed at when you're not making a living wage. Just something to consider. I put up with it because my daughter absolutely loves the place, and all she's been talking about is making it to Swim Force. It's been so rewarding to see her confidence grow, and to see her setting ambitious goals for herself!
