★★★★★Bernadette Lamb

We have been coming for a year+ for swim. Have done group and private. Also did gymnastics. Everyone has been helpful and friendly. The swim staff and teachers are especially amazing.

★★★★Gabriela Lopez-Soberanes

The Joan Kroc fitness center offers a variety of fitness class. Worth a try

★★★★★Ransom the person

Lorien is a fantastic employee. I saw her doing well dealing with a difficult customer in front of me and she had seamless service with myself and others.

Prices go up, services are curtailed. The 19 year olds at the desk never know what’s going on. They should try paying fewer people more money to see if the organization flourishes. Or just continue to hope no one notices.

★★★★★Megan Ulkutekin

Sent my 6 year old to single day camp recently. I was so impressed by Beth, who welcomed and connected with her immensely. The staff seems to be very involved and she had a GREAT TIME! More fun than the ymca for sure. We’ll be back in summer. I also love to swim here! The pool is the perfect temp for me, very clean, and everyone is super friendly!
