Eastside Swim School

★★★★★Lauren P

My kids did private lessons at Eastside Swim School and we were absolutely blown away by how much they both advanced in just one summer. One of my children was petrified of the water and wouldn’t submerge his head on the first day, and three months later, he was literally swimming across the pool independently. My other child could just barely swim, and by the end of a few months, he could nearly beat his instructor in a swimming race across the pool. Lisa and her staff are incredible. They are dedicated to helping kids learn water safety awareness, building confidence and independence, improving swimming technique and endurance, all while encouraging kids to have fun and truly enjoy the water. We are so grateful to Lisa and her teachers (our boys adored Aidan!) for helping my children learn the important life skill of swimming—something they will take with them for the rest of their lives!

Eastside Swim School has been the best! My children had taken years of group lessons at some of the best reviewed schools in the area and made very little progress. Within the first few weeks of lessons with Gelsi at Eastside they were much more comfortable in the water. Due to our own schedule changes, the kids have also had lessons with Katie, Hannah, and Lisa and they've all been absolutely fantastic. It's been about a year and the kids are swimming confidently and I'm no longer worried about them being unsafe in and around water. I can't recommend them enough. Thank you Eastside Swim School!

Highly recommend it! Our 5-year-old daughter is in her second summer there and loving it. Great teachers, awesome 1:1 classes, and she’s made real progress. We usually do drop-ins (super convenient for our schedule), but they also offer weekly classes—just a heads up, those fill up fast!

Hello, I'd like to take a momment and highlight the positive impact in my son's swimming abilities that Hannah has helped with every since she began coaching my son Elliott. Hannah mixes in the right about of warmth while also pushing Elliott past his comfort zone. Elliott has needed this extra push for his skills to develope, and I appreciate that Hannah has done this while still fostering a welcoming and fun enviroment. Elliott, and I, are excited every Tuesday knowing well get to see Hannah that day! Hope this feedback is shared. Thank you. Bennett Ostergaard

I can’t say enough good things about Eastside Swim! After years of being “stuck” (level/skill wise) at group lessons at our local aquatic center, we were looking for private lessons. Eastside had a spot and our daughter has soared with her swimming skills! We saw Izzy once a week in the summer and have been seeing Gelsi once a week for 6 months now. Both are fabulous instructors, knowledgeable in swimming skills and teaching techniques, yet good with younger children. Our daughter just turned 6 and can swim in a pool without a life jacket. A year ago she wouldn’t even put her face in the water! What a difference. She is thrilled when it is swim lesson day and time to go to Eastside. Everyone has been very nice. The facility is a pool in a backyard, but it is heated, well maintained, and covered in the fall/winter. Thank you for what you do for the community!
