The Blacktip swim school provided excellent swim lessons to both my children at various levels. The swim instructors were patient, knowledgeable, and encouraging. Each lesson the swim instructors ensured the learning experience was both fun and safe for my kids of different ages and skill levels. The instructors tailored their approach to each child's individual needs, fostering confidence and a love for swimming. I would highly recommend this swim school for all levels of learners!

I started at this swim school almost a year and a half ago, and it has been a great experience! I started at age 34 with no swimming experience, and have learned so much! The instructors have all been great, and I'm so grateful to Coach Ken who brought me so far, and now to Coach Nolan who has continued to teach me after Ken's departure. Everyone has been very kind and I've made a few friends in the adults class. It's been so fun to learn and grow, especially when I felt like it was too late for me to learn. It's never too late! And I never felt anything but support at my classes. Thank you so much for teaching me to swim and to enjoy it!!

Blacktip Swim School is the best in San Antonio, without question. Blacktip isn’t just a swim school; it’s where nervous splashers turn into sleek, confident swimmers - like their namesake blacktip sharks. We signed up our 12-year-old, who was okay in the water but needed a boost before summer. Fast-forward a year, and he’s not just swimming with confidence, he’s on the swim team, stacking up medals like a champ. The magic started with a trial lesson. The instructor had this killer combo of sharp technique and infectious energy, tweaking drills on the fly to match our son’s level. In 30 minutes, his hesitant paddling turned into smooth, strong strokes. Afterward, the manager sat down with us, asked about our goals, and laid out a plan. No generic fluff, just a roadmap to success. A year later, the proof is in the results. The coaches kept him challenged, motivated, and loving every lap. The facility is sleek and purpose-built for facilitating growth. If you want a swim school that doesn’t just teach strokes but can build anyone into a confident swimmer, Blacktip’s your place. Our kid went from cautious to absolutely loving it, carving through the water with great confidence. We are eternally grateful for all of the instructors, leaders, conversations, kindness, and guidance during our time at Blacktip! If it isn't obvious, we love Blacktip, and I'm sure you will too!

We really enjoy lessons with blacktip. My kids are more confident in the water and safe. We move often and have had lessons and my kids did not leave full on being able to swim and retain what they learned. We signed up for a lesson to see how the program was and I have to say it's the best swim school we have been too. The coaches always return calls and answer questions. It feels more like a close community, and not just a business providing a product. They know their swimmers. We love it here.

Great experience! The instructors were patient and really knew how to tailor the lessons to my specific goals. I came in wanting to learn how to swim because I never learned how to growing up. The environment was welcoming and supportive, and I always felt like I was making progress. Highly recommend to anyone looking to sharpen their skills or just get more comfortable in the pool!
