SwimLabs Issaquah

Very disappointed with their customer service and some of their coaches. I had to call so many times just to get a refund and then too it wasn’t what I expected. When will customer service not become after thought…

I used to be terrified of water since I couldn’t swim and I was not comfortable in pools deeper than 4 ft. I decided to enroll here so I would be able to go snorkeling on my next trip to Hawaii. After only 3 lessons, I was able to swim against the current. My swim instructor did a great job at making me feel safe in the pool. I highly recommend this place.

I LOVE this place. My son is 4 and has taken swim classes during the summer since he was just over 6 months old. We were at Bellevue Aquatic for most of the last 2.5 yrs and he didn’t advance much at all. His first class here, he was blowing bubbles, by his third class he was putting his head under water willingly and by his 5^th class he was blowing bubbles and putting his head under water together. That’s amazing for a kid who has refused this for years. He has also been practicing swim strokes.
The instructors have been very friendly and patient with him and his fears (he ended up underwater for a few seconds with no instructors right next to him at Bellevue Aquatic this summer). I also appreciate that if I don’t get the chance to talk to the instructor after the class, I get an email update on how he did.
The class size is fairly small — upto 4 kids and there have been times where there were just 2 kids. And I like that the pools are small shallow pools so you don’t have multiple large groups sharing the space.
There are also above water and underwater video cameras that allow you to watch what’s going on from the comfort of their lobby on their TV screens rather than sitting in the warm humid pool area.

I’m a triathlete looking to increase efficiency in my swim stroke. After a 30 minute session I saw a significant improvement in my 100yd pace.

Great place for swim lessons. Comfy waiting room where you can watch your kids on video. Friendly staff, super clean, and not overwhelming chlorine smell.
