I saw a review for Murray Callan and was sooo bummed I didn't get to be the first. I've wanted to say something for a while then someone beat me to it. Well I'm in luck after all because the original location in PB hasn't been reviewed yet. The beer guggling party goers will disagree with me but this place is the best thing going for PB by far. I have a 9 y/o, a 7y/o and a 4 y/o and all have been to Murray Callan. We've tried others and they were nice but after two years of paying for swim lessons elsewhere my oldest two were able to stand on the shallowest step without freaking out. I was freaking out at paying all this money only to see little to no progress with the kids. I told my wife we needed to just ignore the screaming and crying and get the kids in the water but she said if I did it my kids would resent me for life. Then came Murray Callan and tough love! They did exactly what I knew needed to be done. With loving kindness they took my kids one by one and brought them into the water, telling them to hold their breath then dunking them. By the end of the summer they were racing each other across the pool and swimming like fish. Murray Callan's is a must for anyone with children and a pool-it is just that simple.
