Member Testimonials
I am very happy, my daughter learned to swim this summer. It is the second year she has taken classes there. I recommend and thank 100% her coach. I think his name is Dylan. His patience, enthusiasm, and knowledge helped my daughter become even more encouraged. Do not hesitate to enroll your children. I highly recommend him.
Great instructors. Very patient.
Instructors, like Dylan, have been such a delight and so encouraging for our kids! They have learned so much in their sessions, and they feel safe and protected. The facility is very clean and the atmosphere is very welcoming and bright. It has been a true blessing for our family. Thank you so much!
This is our grandson’s 3rd summer taking swimming from Pace! Pace is a great instructor, and we hope to get him next year!
It was a great experience! The instructor was so kind and patient, and she really knew how to make learning fun for my little one. My child looked forward to every lesson and felt so proud after each class. I loved seeing her confidence grow in the water. The small class sizes and safe, friendly environment made me feel really comfortable as a parent. We’ll definitely be back!
Pace, swim instructor, was detailed and patient.
We loved all the songs and coordinated activities!
My eight-year-old grand twins just finished their very first swim lesson sessions with instructor “Darby”.
I was amazed at how much they learned in their seven session!
With Darby‘s patient and well paced teaching, I could see the twins growing in confidence as they graduated from red, to yellow, two green wristbands.
Few things are as important as swim lessons and we are very grateful for the YMCA Swim lessons and they’re wonderful instructors.
His instructors are so patient and knowledgeable.
Summer swim team is great! Coach Hector and Coach Caden are engaged with the kids, helping them improve while having fun.
The Y should notify people that summer swim team is an option in late winter or early spring so more are aware of it and can plan for it - especially since it is not included in the regular sports registrations emails.
Thanks
Felt like the kids were pushed within their limits and each day was incrementally progressive and not repetitive.
Sam was so great with my 4 year old. She was scared, and he let her move at her own pace while still teaching her the basics.
Excellent facility and staff.
I want to express my sincere gratitude to the instructor of this course. My daughter has taken swim classes for over 5 years at many different swim schools and never felt comfortable in the water. I was very concerned for her to go on class trips and pool parties for fear that she would be embarrassed and try to swim beyond her ability. I no longer have that concern! This is the first class that she actually enjoyed and has learned how to swim. The instructor was very knowledgeable and provided her with clear, useful techniques and she showed improvement after each session. She also liked that he was "laid back" and did not pressure her to go beyond her comfort level. I feel a lot more confident and relieved that she can now swim and grateful to the instructor for helping to make that happen.
The YMCA White Rock is great. It's clean, the staff are friendly, and the facility is well maintained. My only issue was with the swim program because the "instructor" provided little no instruction for the swim classes.
Ben had Dylan as his swim instructor, and he was great! Ben was a bit hesitant about taking lessons at first—he felt like he already knew how to swim—but Dylan made the experience both fun and meaningful. He was intentional in helping Ben improve his technique. While Ben's favorite part was splashing Dylan at the end of each lesson with a cannon ball he also now has a much more controlled and effective stroke.
Competition, great skills and exercise for my growing boys, coach Hector has enthusiasm and teaches skills in a positive and motivating way
Trainers were great, very good instructor-to-student ratio, convenient times.
Having the lessons every day meant that my 3 year old knew exactly what to expect and was able to build on his experience. Daphne was an excellent teacher! Patient with the littles and the perfect amount of kind and firm.
The facility is new and very well maintained
super close intrutor really on point water exercise
I have been very happy with the amenities, and the staff is very helpful. I will say - a couple (Not all) of the lifeguards are pretty bad about watching the pool when they are on stand rather than dancing to the music or looking at their lifeguard friends. In all, i am very happy, and i have recommended this gym to multiple of my friends!
Love the Classes and the Y Staff.
The restorative yoga classes in the evenings can’t start on time because the prior classes go over. Is it possible to rework the schedule so that Monday and Wednesday evening restorative classes can start on time?
I love the natural light in the work out area, the people are very nice, and the classes they offer
Lovely facility and great staff

It’s incredibly close to my home so I walk there! They keep the facility guest & organized. All of the staff are friendly & helpful. I rarely have to wait for equipment which is lovely.
I lap swim at this location during the summer. The lifeguards are very nice, and I really appreciate them.
I like everything from the convenience of child watch, staff professional whom make you feel welcome. The set up and cleanliness of the equipment. I still have more to try just as the swimming pool and free classes but so far it has met my expectations.
