Goldfish Swim School - Chapel Hill 1728 Fordham Boulevard, Chapel Hill, NC 27514

"After a frustrating year of private and semi-private lessons for my 5/6yos, I was hesitant to try Goldfish. Their standardized curriculum convinced me that at least we'd be able to track our kids' progress, which was one thing we'd been missing. Since we started at Goldfish last November, my big kids have moved up 2 levels and were finally completely independent in the water this summer. My little kids haven’t made progress as quickly but they enjoy it and look forward to their lessons every week: I take them Friday mornings when it’s nice and quiet. There are probably a lot of variables that can make it successful or not for your kid, but it's been a great experience for our family."

"Our daughter loves going to goldfish, her teachers have always been amazing and the place is super clean. The classes are only 30 minutes and sometimes they have up to 4 kids in one lane, which significantly cuts their instruction time. It would be nice if the classes were 45min or had less kids per lane. If you miss a class they let you make it up, that’s always helpful since little kids get sick often in the winter. Overall we’ve had a great experience at goldfish."

"My granddaughter has thoroughly enjoyed each class, and all of the instructors have been patient and kind! She is learning and growing in her skills, each week! It has been a wonderful experience for our family!"

"We really like the goldfish experience, and we truly believe that due to the dedication of the teachers, the small groups, and the almost one on one teaching, our son learned to swim. The most important part is that he learned to do his strokes are very accurate, and we are extremely grateful for teaching him that. We appreciate the dedication of the teachers, the warm and encouraging atmosphere, and especially the warm water all year around!"

"We love the swim school. Both of my daughters have had wonderful coaches, and the front desk are always super helpful. I also love their commitment to assisting non-profits in the area!"
