Impressed My little guy is 20 months and I was skeptical about what such a little
one could learn in swim lessons. I was surprised when his teacher
Jessi, taught him to kick and put his face in the water to blow bubbles.
My son now understands about the edge of the pool and can climb out of
the pool completely by himself. He looks for the steps to get in and
out of the pool, which is a big deal. He still has a little way to go,
but in 10, 15 min sessions, it is impressive what Jessi accomplished
with him. Our little one had a hard time separating with me so Jessi
took extra care to make the lessons fun and care for his emotional needs
as well. Now my son associates pools with Jessi and when he sees a
pool on TV or in pictures he points and enthusiastically calls out
Yessi!!! Wawa!! Yessi!!! It is really cute. An added bonus is that
across the street from the swim school is a great park that my son loved
to play in before or after the swim lessons!
I'm expecting that next year as my son emotionally matures he will be
even more focused on the swim lessons and less focused on separating
from me. I know he will be swimming at the age of 2! Christie C.
Great experiences at the Lucile Cowle Swim School My one-year-old daughter and two-year-old son have each had two sets of
lessons at the Lucile Cowle's swim school. As parents, we had such a
great time watching them improve their skills week after week. It's been
almost two months since they had their lessons, but I still get asked
several times per week when will they get to see their teachers Jessi,
Rachel, and Mikey again. Each of these teachers had a positive impact on
our kids and we all loved our time with them. They are friendly and
make the classes fun for the kids. Michelle G.
Our kids learned how to swim before they were 2 at the Lucile Cowle Swim School All
of our kids learned to swim at Lucile Cowle Swim School before they
were 2. What a blast to have toddlers swimming and diving from diving
boards that they were barely able to climb up on! I remembered hearing
about Lucile Cowle back in the 70's. Once our kid's were born, starting
from their first summers, we took them to Lucile's and practiced at home
everyday. They swam at parties, friends homes, hotels, slide rock in
Sedona, waterparks in Palm Springs, San Dimas, Las Vegas, and Phoenix.
We went houseboating on Lake Powel every year. We jet skied in Cabo,
swam with the dolphins in Puerta Villarta, sea turtles in Hawaii,
snorkeled in Grand Cayman Islands, Bahamas, Mexico, and Hawaii, surfed
at CA beaches, rafted on the Colorado River. What a blast! We took the
kids back to Lucile's year after year till they had finished strokes and
fancy dives. Our experiences at Lucile Cowle Swim School enriched our
lives. Jay Davis
The lessons here are different - one on one lessons... My boys were fortunately gifted swim lessons last summer at Lucile
Cowle's Swim School in Burbank. I was a little skeptical since I had
never heard of the swim school before and because the lessons were
pretty expensive (although a gift to us). The lessons here are
different - one on one lessons at 15 minute intervals either 2, 3 or 5
days a week depending on your preference. My older son was paired
with Paul who was really tuned into the individual needs of my 4 1/2
year old. My tot was paired up with Lacee who was fantastic as well.
By the end of the summer my kids had progressed beautifully and next
summer, gift or no gift, we'd like to send our kids back. Jennifer H.
Great Swim School! My 3 children have learned to swim at Lucile Cowle's Swim School. The
teachers are excellent and have varying teaching styles, which are great
for all types of kids. My youngest completed his Beginner 3
requirements this past summer. He made incredible progress with his
teacher, Jessi. She was great, and he was thrilled. Sue N.
A great place to learn swimming Lucile's has been around forever, at least 32 years. I took lessons
there and so did my daughter when she was 8 months old. The instructors
are top notch, very knowledgeable, excellent with kids, and very
professional. The facility is very clean and there is a warm, family
atmosphere. Lots of chair for parents to sit and watch while their kids
are taking their lessons. I would personally recommend Lucile's to
anyone. They are a bit more expensive than others but well worth the
money. PROS: Clean, excellent instructors, friendly, family atmosphere. Patti M.
It was a great experience for my daughter... I took my 5 1/2 year old daughter to this swim school for nine 15 minute
lessons. It was a 3 day a week cycle consisting of Mon, Wed, and
Friday. The instructor she was assigned was Paul. He did a good job and
was great at motivating my child to do better each time. It was a great
experience for my daughter to see other children learning to swim too in
the pool. Juan S.
...very approachable and accommodating to the needs of their customers Teacher Jessie taught both my 2 1/2 year
old daughter and 15 month old daughter for 2 sets of lessons. She was
nothing but loving, caring, and very professional in the way she
conducted the lessons and her manners towards me as a mother and
customer. Both of my daughters LOVE Miss Jessie and continue to speak
highly of her even after our lessons have stopped for the summer.... With regards to the Swim School itself...it has been a place that
has helped not only my children swim, but myself, my brothers, cousins,
family friends and friends children swim. The owners are amazing and very approachable and accommodating to the needs of their
customers. I DO and will continue to refer and go to the swim school. Nita N.
My children and grandchildren all learned to swim at Lucile's... My children and grandchildren all learned to swim at Lucile's. All had
great experiences and loved going to their lessons. Those lessons
involved a total of 12 entirely different personalties.Each one got
treated with respect, silly when necessary and firm when necessary. We
obviously loved it or wouldn't have had 2 generations learning to swim
there. M Christensen
Consistently fine swim program...
Thank you for the fine swim program you offer each year. We
want to extend a special thanks you to Rachel who is an outstanding teacher.
She obviously enjoys her students and they have fun, but she also makes them
work. Our grand daughter has made real progress these past three weeks and she
is sad that the lessons are over. We truly appreciate the affection and
attention she has received. Darolyn & Dick C.
They were amazing...
I never write these things, but my son learned to swim at Lucile Cowle. They were amazing. They have young teachers who are wonderful at making children feel comfortable in the water. They were masters at keeping the lessons light and fun while teaching him all of his strokes. As an educator myself, I found the school to be a model for teaching water safety to young and school age children. Jorddy
GREAT SWIM SCHOOL...
All three of my children have learned to swim at Lucile Cowle's Swim School. We have had several teachers, including Jim, Peach, Paul and Jessi. All have been excellent and work well with children. Kids relate differently to teaching styles, and Lucile Cowle has teachers that range from very hand-holding to more firm and earnest. My youngest son achieved his Beginner 3 card this summer with Jessi's guidance. He was thrilled! Matthew
A Great Experience...
I had a great experience at this swim school. Paul and Sara were my daughters's instructors and after the 2nd lesson she was already swimming on her own. I was really surprised, she's 4 1/2. I was pressed for time bc were leaving on vacation and was hoping she would learn to swim before. I only had time for 6 lessons total and didn't think that would even be enough, but she's a little swimmer now jumping from the deep end, kicking and swimming on. :) Gohar A.
A Positive Experience...
My child is just 4 years old and has learned so much in the few set of lessons at Lucile's. It has been a positive experience, and while I agree that everyone's experiences may be different, I am an extremely happy customer, as our many of my acquaintences/friends. Lauren B.
This is the place!
Our children all enjoyed their time at Lucile Cowle swim school. The instructors were attentive and all followed the same form of instruction techniques. The one-on-one instruction was fantastic because they were able to tailor the lesson to my child's specific needs. I have recommended this school to many people! Want your child to swim? This is the place! Momof3
Great for Kids!
This school is great for kids and does a great job of teaching children how to swim. Make sure, however, to sign your child up as soon as possible because they *always* fill up quickly. Bridiette F.
