Goldfish Swim School - Bandera Pointe

I absolutely love Goldfish Swim School! Even though we live on the other side of town, we gladly make the 40-minute drive because it’s worth it. The instructors are patient, encouraging, and fantastic with the kids, and the staff is always friendly and helpful. We couldn’t be happier with our experience here!

Great visit today with the Helotes Chamber. Goldfish could not have been more welcoming. This is where the cool kids come to learn a lifelong skill.

This school and its staff are all fantastic. Our son started his first ever swim classes here at age 2.5, as we were stationed overseas for several years (where he was born). It was a rough start for him, not being a fan of water being poured on him, floating on his back, going under water, etc. In time, several different teachers helped us to change that. They have been patient, friendly, and positive (so important for an upset toddler and parents feeling defeated). The schedule has been very flexible, as my husband and I took turns taking our son on weekdays and weekends too. Our son loves seeing the fish tank before class as well as picking out a snack afterwards. Even the desk receptionists are welcoming and friendly. Recently, my husband received military orders for a mandatory assignment in Florida, so our family relocated for several months and we will return next month. We had several unexpected charges from the school, come to find out they were for tuition. I was unaware that we needed to complete a 30 day withdrawal notice until we returned, which was in the online disclosures I neglected to notice. The manager made it right and we couldn’t be more happy as a family on one income. We are excited to have our son return next month and continue building his confidence in the water, along with his baby brother in the near future. Thanks for the excellent, thorough customer service. Keep up the great work!

Love this school! Highly recommend, the staff is very friendly and each swim coach has so much patience. When starting swim lessons after only 4 lessons I noticed a huge difference in my daughter's confidence in the water. She absolutely loves coming to class and showing off all that she has learned! A bonus is the water safety and limited kids per swim coach each class each child get that one on one 💕

We’ve been attending this swim school for the past two years, starting when my toddler was just two years old, and I can’t recommend it highly enough! From the very first class, we were impressed by the welcoming atmosphere and the quality of instruction. The facility is spotlessly clean, well-maintained, and fully equipped to meet the needs of children of all ages and skill levels. It's clear they put a lot of thought into creating a safe, comfortable environment for families. The staff here is outstanding—kind, compassionate, and incredibly dedicated to their work. Every instructor we've encountered has been patient and nurturing with my child, building his confidence in the water in such a positive way. They are always approachable, willing to answer questions, and truly care about each child’s progress and enjoyment. It’s evident that they love what they do, and that energy is contagious! The pricing is also very reasonable for the level of service and expertise they provide. We’ve tried other programs, but none compare to the personal attention and overall experience here. It's been a great investment in our child's development, and we look forward to continuing our swimming journey with this amazing team!
