Monterey Aquatic Therapy Center

"Beautiful team of instructors who are kind, patient and mindful to special needs adults/children. Love this place for my adult son who is non-verbal with autism. His whole life he never put his head under water or knew how to blow bubbles or wear goggles. He is doing all of that within the first two months of lessons. Incredible! A very special place."

"I signed up both my daughters (ages 4 and 7) for swim instruction at this facility. It was a best decision I could make for their water safety! Starting out, my 4 year old was afraid to put her face in the water, but fast forward four sessions later....she was kicking her feet, head down in the water and "ice cream scooping" the water with her hands to swim across the width of the pool.....THEN flipping over to her back to take a big breath...AND then flipping back over to continue swimming. Trisha and her staff are simply amazing. They are endlessly patient, gentle with their instruction, no pressure, and so incredibly supportive. I can't recommend this facility enough if you are looking for swim instruction."

"My son was terrified of the water and went from not knowing how to swim at age 9 (refusing to submerge head) to learning how to dive in a matter of 3 short months. This center is nothing short of amazing. Trisha and her team of teachers use a method that is evidence-based and highly effective. My kids love swimming and won’t stop asking to go for lessons. This is truly a remarkable resource for families. THANK YOU!!!"

"Monterey Aquatic Therapy Center has been absolutely amazing for our 5 year old son. He has always loved the water and he wants to be a surfer when he grows up, but he was hesitant to put his head under water and he wasn't able to swim yet. We enrolled him in swimming lessons here because we heard they were the best and we are having the most amazing experience! The focused, one on one care is exactly what our son needed to overcome his fears and love being in and under water. Trisha, the owner, is great and she hires only the best teachers. The program is well organized and she goes over the goals and his progress with us to help keep our little minnow on track for success! Thank you MATC!"

"What a wonderful place! The people that work here are amazing and give 100% effort every time I am here with my handicapped sister. Trisha is so helpful and kind and all the workers are so compassionate and motivating to the swimmers. The pool is clean, the locker room is clean and the showers are amazing. I feel privileged to be able to bring my sister here to receive such quality aquatic therapy! Thank you so much! I look forward to every visit!"
