Cogua Aquatics

"Fast progress, nice instructors, and flexible time for scheduling. We love the ability to text for updates - Highly recommend"

"As a former instructor, if you value the health and safety of your children, I HIGHLY suggest you find another swim school. The owners of Cogua are not only anti-mask, but they are ALSO anti-vaccine. They didn’t require employees to ever wear masks or get the vaccine, they actually almost discouraged it. They lied about the vaccination status of some of their unvaccinated employees to parents who asked that they have a vaccinated instructor for they’re children. Many parents were given instructors who did not have the vaccine and when asked, instructors were allowed to lie and say they had it. The owners daughter herself (Jackie) does NOT have the vaccine, and works with kids in the water. On top of all of that, the unvaccinated employees were never required to wear any form of face coverings when they were in VERY close contact with kids. They also DO NOT disinfect the facility and it was never professionally cleaned."

"People who know me knows I always have high stander with everything especially after living 15 years in Japan. We enrolled our 5 year old son to Cogua last end of July and now not even an year he is on level 5 he started from level 1 in last July. I love their teaching curriculum and all of the instructors. My husband and I were swimming teachers when we were young so we are strict to swimming teachers. I’ve searched many places and I found this place is great and has a great value. People said they had payment issue to be honest I never had that issue. They offer 1st lesson for free I think it’s the best swimming school in my area. Strong recommend"

"I can’t speak for other instructors or how they see things but I have much appreciation for Cogua and the experiences it gave me being an instructor. It was my first job and they took their time showing me the ropes and made everything very manageable and easy to understand. I found great people to work with there and made some friends that I still have even though I’m not there anymore, and enjoyed my time there. I have never experienced any substance use during my time there and even though sometimes my pay would be short the managers would see to paying me back/getting me my pay in a timely and urgent manner. While checking to make sure everything works and goes efficiently They try and do as much as they can for their employees and customers even if it’s a struggle or takes time. They do their best and I’m grateful for that"

"I've never been one to write reviews, but this establishment deserves to hear from me. I've been bringing two kids here for the past 1.5 year and it was great at first. The last 6-8 weeks have been completely disorganized and with a constant turnover or last minute schedule change of staff that the instructors don’t even know about themselves. My daughter has had 5 different instructors with every instructor not knowing my kid's progress these last two months. The last minute phone call or an email sent the day before to notify me of yet another instructor change is unacceptable and have caused my child to regress on her swim progress. The fact that the owner is so nonchalant and unapologetic with how this business is run is beyond comprehension. Our family runs a business and would never talk to the customer in such a rude tone. The paying customer should have a say to some extent and is "always right" so to speak. I'm not asking for free lessons or anything comped because that means nothing to me or my kids. I'm asking for courtesy, professionalism, and most importantly...consistency!! After this package is complete, we might have to consider another aquatics school who actually values their customers. There are only a few awesome instructors that are consistently there and unfortunately we can't choose whoever or whenever we want just like they would do to us. Parents out there looking, do your research before signing up because once you pay, it's non refundable."
