Mockingbird Swim and Total Fitness

This is a great place for kids to learn how to swim. The teachers are really good & they have great techniques. It’s an indoor pool so they can swim year-​round regardless of the water. The classes are small so the kids learn faster. There are showers & dressing rooms in the bathroom. They have a small play area where the kids play & do warm up exercises before class. They have a vending machine with healthy, natural, & organic snacks. The pool is enclosed by glass with chairs all around so you can watch your child learn.
Cons: It’s not cheap. It’s more costly then the YMCA (but the instructors here are pros not college kids).
Also, many women take their older boys in the women’s room & I’m not talking about a 2 yr old. These boys are 6 or 8 years old & these boys just stare at the other naked little girls. This is very disconcerting because these boys are becoming sexually aware. I’ve heard terrible news about 8−10yr old boys doing adult stuff, getting caught in schools. I wish they wouldn’t allow boys in there. There’s actually a separate little room with a door that has baby changing tables, that’s what they should be using. My 5 yr old girl can dress herself – why can’t an 8 yr old boy do it in the boys room?
Sometimes the lady forgets to do the exercises before class.
Overall it’s a great school! Just watch out for peeping lil toms if u have a girl.

Great place for swim lessons! We’ve been going here for the last year and are very pleased with the staff and facilities. They work very hard to make sure the kids learn the skills they need to be able to swim and swim well.

Mockingbird Swim and Fitness has been around almost 10 years. I know this because both my children have become proficient in swim through lessons taken here. Wonderful staff — friendly, effective instructors, punctual with start and stop times.

Yes, the facility is not new. But the location and the owners /​teachers make it 5 stars. My children have excelled tremendously while in lessons there after trying other options the past couple years.
We also frequently take advantage of their swim camp. They have it every day (m-​f) and you can do one day at a time. It’s great when you need child care and my kids are obsessed!
All of the staff is very friendly and work well with the children. The owners, Paul and Debbie truly love what they do and my kids love them– which is important to me.

My three boys are taking swim lessons here and we couldn’t be more pleased. The instructors are excellent with just the right balance between challenge and fun.

Well, the good thing about this school is that they teach the rollover technique, the classes are small, and the classes are offered at a lot of different times. The things I did not like were the size of the pool itself, the cleanliness of the pool and the building itself. I had my kids there for about 5 years total, and I loved the teachers there, but they have since moved on to other jobs. The turnover rate is rather high there. I get the impression that the owners are not very fair and maybe not even very nice. When we realized that our favorite teachers were not going to be there any more, we left, as the whole place has kind of a weird vibe to it, and without our favorite teachers, we did not want to be there, especially not for the money they charge. I would give it a 2.5, but that is not an option.
