Sign up process and monthly turnaround is tedious

All of the staff at the Briggs kid zone are amazing and my daughter loves them! They have always been quick to contact me when any issue arises and I trust them to take good care of my child.

Great program; my kids made lots of progress!

I have had really positive experiences with most of the programs offered at the Y. However, I was disappointed with the first ukulele class we had this week. The instructor Elijah I believe, seemed very kind and knowledgeable, but some of the children were rude and out of control. It made it difficult for my son and others to learn, and difficult for Elijah to teach. I know it says in the guidelines that parents must remain in the room, and many did not. I believe a smaller child to teacher ratio would be more effective, and perhaps age 5 is too young. If you would like further feedback, please feel free to call me (Rachel Capsey, mom of Barrett, 564-234-7266)

Friendly and affordable!

Instructor for Little Ninjas was terrible. No structured program. Could not control a class of 3-5 year olds even when only 3-4 in attendance. Balance of class was playing Simon Says and Red Light Green Light.

Teachers need more energy and the the combat arts teacher isn’t a good fit.

I wish that the Homeschool PE games had been more cooperative rather than competitive. Once the kids get out in a game, there was a lot of time sitting on the sidelines.

The instructor was very friendly and knowledgeable. Made me feel comfortable and confident having my child in the water.

Instructor was awesome. It was such a fun activity to do with my baby!

We loved his teacher this time! She was great at keeping the kids engaged and helping my son feel safe to try new things.

Have had a different instructor every class. No continuity.

Sense of community . Love the family atmosphere !

I’ve held back from communicating my experience in fear that a swim teacher would treat my child poorly due to my response but, they have already treated them

My kids did not have a consistent teacher and I felt the teachers were more more into their routine of teaching than seeing each individual student.

Dan is such a wonderful instructor that loves his craft. He explains things in a way that helps he relax being a 46 year old. I learned to float on my first lesson due to his calmness. I would definitely recommend lessons at the Briggs Y

The class does not teach anything related to getting child used to water. No tips have been given to help child used to getting water on head or face or anything else. Class will sing 1 or 2 songs then just have playtime.

The sessions seem a little chaotic and after 3 years of swim lessons my child still doesn’t know how to swim.

Teachers we're encouraging and patient.

More rigorous than the previous program we were enrolled in. Our kid is making real progress.

I have found that swim lessons vary significantly based on the instructor. My daughter's most recent instructor is a younger man who has been wonderful! He gives specific feedback in order to help students improve their form. Many instructors seem to go through the motions without seeming to care if students make progress.

Me gustan las instalaciones, sobre todo la piscina.

the staff is friendly and the facility is clean

I appreciate that the caregivers pick up my child when they are upset. They are also kind and patient.

I’d probably recommend to others with young children. However, my kids are 8 and 10 and when they go in the mornings there are only very little children and the older kid area with age appropriate activities is closed, so they have nothing enjoyable to do.
