This is a very great place to take your kids to learn how to swim they are affordable, work with your schedule, and are flexible when you need to make up lessons. I would highly recommend this place for anybody who is looking for a place to take their kids to learn swimming.

Our kids have been taking classes at Urbandale Goldfish since before they could walk. Now at 7 and 4, they are such confident and skilled swimmers making strides every week! So thankful for the team there helping to teach our kids how to stay safe around water! 💗

My 3-year-old and 7-year-old have been going to Goldfish Swim school for the last 2 months. It's amazing how much they've grown in such a short amount of time. My son who is three was scared of the water but now is brave enough to put his head all the way under and splash. My 7-year-old daughter just advanced from the glider 1 to glider 2 class today. She is so much more confident in the water, holding her breath and flipping from front to back, as well as doing big strokes. The facility is well organized and clean. The staff is very accommodating. I'm so grateful that I can take both of my kids to class in the same time frame, even though they're in different lanes, swimming at different levels.

Our 4 year old loves swimming lessons at Goldfish! We’ve had a consistent teacher that knows her well and that’s so important to us.

Our son has been coming to Goldfish for three years and we have seen him progress so much! He had no prior experience swimming as a three-year-old, but is now more aware of how to keep himself safe in and around the water. The instructors and staff are all so kind, patient, and helpful, and they provide updates after each class. We love coming here each week!
