My family has been taking lessons at Lucile Cowle's for two generations now. We have many friends who also come and it is fun to see all of the kids learning to swim. I think the focused "one on one" teaching time that Lucile Cowle's does is the best way for little ones to learn to respect water and also to learn how to swim for fun and sports as they get older. It was very important for us as parents to have our children be water safe. We are looking forward to another year as our grand kids now take to the water to learn to be safe and have fun in the water too. Thank you Lucile Cowle's!ucile Cowle Swim School provided a great experience for all of our children. Through the years, not only did they learn to swim, but they also each became a strong swimmer. In speaking with other customers I heard of people who had swam there as a child and were now bringing their grandchildren! Thank you Lucile Cowle's!
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 her own.
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.
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.
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 chairs 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.
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.
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!
I agree with Patricia. The owners are rude and not caring. The teachers are moody and rude. They could care less about your child. My kids hated this school. You can't get your money back because they only take checks and cash and you must pay before classes start. Never again.
I HIGHLY DISAGREE with Patricia Frost in regards to the swim school and Jessie as a teacher. Jessie taught my 2 1/2 year old and 15 month old daughers how to swim this summer for 2 sets of lessons and was AMAZING. She was nothing but professional in the way she handled my daughters and me as a mother and customer. Both of my daughters still talk about Miss Jessie and the fun that they had this summer with her. The swim school has been a place that not only my children have learned to swim but myself, my brothers, cousins, family friends and friends children. the owners Stephanie and Rob are very approachable and accomadating torwards their customers. I will continue to be a customer and refer people to the 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.
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.
This is a great school. Amazing instructors, very nice staff and very well organized. The facility was always very clean. Too bad it's not open year round. Register early as classes...
Loved our swimming lessons from start to finish. The teacher was great with my toddler, never rushed him or yelled at him. Was sad the set ended and that they're only open during the summer. Will definitely be back!
This is our second session in the same summer and I'm very pleased with the school. My 2 yr old loves his instructor, Jeremy, who is extremely patient with him. I'm so happy with the experience...

This school really helped my older son (now in H.S.) after three summers of lessons. However, when I had my 2nd child, it was less friendly in 2010. I tried to bring my non potty trained 3 y.o. into the ladies room even though he was a boy. I got called out on it and told I could have peed in the "family" …
Thinking of swimming lessons for the kids. This place is great! We brought our son here when he was 2 and probably not the best time as it just wasnt...
We just had a 10 lesson set (3 times a week) and my kids (3.5 and 6) went from zero confidence and little ability to a great deal of both. Our instructor, Spencer, was great - calm yet firm, caring - and both kids looked forward to lessons. The one on one structure makes all the difference. More money than the Y, but a great value for what you really get. We will be going back next summer!

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.
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...
I HIGHLY disagree with Patricia F. in regards to Lucille Cowle Swim School and Jessie as a teacher. First 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 daughter LOVE Miss Jessie and...

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.
I never write comments but feel compelled after reading some negative reviews about the Swim School. My family started at the Swim School after hearing many compliments about the results and experiences there. The facility is clean with a relaxed attitude. The owners are helpful in the office and have done a great job matching my children with teachers who have personalities that have brought a...
I will not be returning to the Lucile swim school. I nearly pulled my kids out early this summer because of the callous attitudes of the owners and the reckless behavior I observed from the instructors.
The Lucile Cowles swim school knows nothing about teaching babies how to swim! One teacher named Jessie dunked my child under the water while she was crying TWICE. What a horrible instructor Jessie is; be forewarned if you have a baby, dont let her NEAR yours. I ran to get my baby away from the awful girl and all Jessie had to say was Im the best instructor here and scoffed away. She never...
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...
