⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Castledowns YMCA location: We had a fantastic experience with this swimming program. The coaches truly make all the difference. Natalie was a the one working with my kiddo and she was amazing. My daughter had a tough day in the water, but the staff handled it with incredible professionalism, patience, and care. They didn’t just stick to a routine—they adapted, thought outside the box, and worked with her at her pace to help her feel comfortable and supported. You can tell these coaches genuinely care about the kids and are invested in their success, both in skills and confidence. Their calm, encouraging approach turned what could have been a difficult experience into a positive one. Highly recommend—these coaches are exceptional.
My daughter has learned so much with the time that she has been swimming with True Blue. My daughter is making huge strides and loves swimming. The staff are fantastic! They are so down to earth, friendly, and great with children!
We LOVE true blue swim school! Highly recommend this program to any family! It’s by far the best swim program in the city. The Staff are amazing, and the program is fantastic! The way they make swimming fun while learning a critical life skill is truly amazing! My oldest has almost completed the program but wants to continue on! Thank you True Blue!
We can not speak more highly of a swim school then true blue. They are outstanding! Their office staff are extremely helpful, patient and kind- assisting to get kids in classes and multiple kids in classes at the same time, answering questions and providing updated information. The swimming instructors cannot be beat. Their own passion of swimming comes across very evidently with the amazing rapport they developed with the kids; who then love learning to swim as well! The instructors are patient, kind, fun, and child focused. We have had multiple kids in the program and have had exceptional staff! The kids learn how to swim more quickly as there is a small ratio of kids to instructors. Also if your kiddos passes a level during a session they can move on to the next level instead of being stuck in the same level for the whole session. These staff not only teach the kiddos how to swim but valuable life skills such as patience, kindness, perseverance, and cooperation. We have been to other swimming programs and there is no doubt this program far surpasses any other.
My daughter has fun and learns at the same time. I have noticed she has progressed more and has gained more confidence since attending True Blue Swim school. Staff are wonderful and super friendly. It's definitely worth the wait to get in.
