British Swim School of The Retreat at Bothell

I could not recommend this place more. We started attending with our daughter from the tadpole classes (infant stage) and the whole process has been wonderful with the staff being patient and comforting every step of the way as our young child familiarizes herself with water. The staff teaches critical water safety skills and allows every child to progress at their own pace. The swim classes have not only been valuable but also incredibly fun for our daughter as well as us as parents! The location itself is also wonderful, clean, and conveniently located.

My daughter was removed based on the wishes of her grandmother excuse me but I’m her legal guardian. Not her grandma. Secondly why wasn’t I notified. If they only allowed the parent to make the choices for their kids I wouldn’t be ticked off. Now I’m on the waiting list thanks to her unqualified grandmother.

Small, crowded place. Messy, ice water. Humid, moist air. I got 3 last minute cancellations by the school, they always called one hour before my morning classes. Pool is poor managed by the community and the school just rent the pool from the community, water is colder than other pools, not an ideal pool for little kids.

Good place!
