Just wanted to share some love for AVAC! They’ve done a great job with their new outdoor gym. It's situated perfectly in the shade next to the tennis courts, which makes working out outdoors enjoyable even on warmer days. It's a wonderful addition to the facilities.Another big plus for me is early Sundays. I can always count on finding an open lane in the pool for a swim after my workout. It's fantastic consistency and something I really appreciate.The only slight annoyance is that the back parking lot is often closed off due to the neighboring church services. It means finding a space can take a little longer, but it's not a huge issue. Overall, AVAC remains a fantastic club with great amenities.

5 stars to 2 stars after 10 months:Original: So far so good. Class of four children for 25$ per class of 30 minutes which seem to be in the range of you compare to water aquatic or YMCA. Nice facilities, parents are not in the class but you can pay 5$ or 7$ depending of the time to have free time in the pool (which is very limited in their schedule). Free wifi, hot water, 25$ yearly admission fee.After 10 months: My daughter received 2 ribbons in the first 3 months and for the next 7 nothing. My 3 years old might not be the best but she listens. However, the teachers (we tried 3 different) keep being stubborn about "gliding". My daughter got better but she wants to swim (move her feet). So, she is stuck at that level. Also, they need to go in deep water for the next level but the kid can practice deep water only 1/5 time, hence almost only one every two months. The program is NOT adapted for young kid and the teachers do not know how to change the routine to spark progress.The staff is way too young. The supervisor decks are total douche bag. Sun glasses, big attitude, talk loudly. When I asked a question, their answer was very respectful like if the question was dumb while they had done a mistake (give twice the same level to my daughter).The pool is DANGEROUS. I saw a boy that almost drowned because in the deep water the two teachers were not supervising the kid waiting in line. The boy went in the deep and couldn't get up. It took more than 3 seconds to the teachers to move toward the boy. I almost had the time to jump to rescue him myself... Very dangerous. Supervisor decks are not checking, they just walk around with weird attitude.About supervisor decks, they also distract teachers with ridiculous riddle on the whiteboard and chitchat. I know, I stay on the side of the pool. Also, do NOT take the 3h30pm class because teachers are tidy up stuff 10 minutes before the end of the class to get ready for their "teachers huddle".In short, the staff is way too young, all around 21 years old. They have "fun" there, and it looks to be a great place to "chill" as a first job, but for your own children safety and progression, I do not recommend.

Never any space for lap swim. Always aquagym, kids, camps, family, therapy, etc. I canceled after 2 months.

The swim teachers are amazing, their upper management and policies are confusing and inconsistent

Great folks that work there. One person, in particular, Chris went way out of his way to help me with a matter!!
