Emeryville Center of Community Life Pool

ECCL is a hidden gem - been through ups and downs in past 16 years, survived darkness, now recovered, though less known, but core-strong and full of heart in all things they do.

Path forward is more fun. This Friday night is a movie-by-the-pool night! Starts at sunset

What can I say? Magical. My little girl was happily roaming free in the pool, while I was sipping hot apple cider in my bench, rewatching Finding Nemo, as a longtime neighbor to Pixar, as well as a two-decade fan to this studio of best stories told.

The planning & execution of this movie night was thorough and thoughtful. Pool is open. Activities for kids. Snacks & hot drinks for adults. A half moon night with clear sky. Clean water. Floating duckies. Laughs & cheers. And the movie ended right before bedtime.

THANK YOU ECCL for bringing us together and adding more memories & joy to the Memory Lane of Emeryville family & community.

Looking forward to the next one! Pumpkin in the pool!

Review is for summer swimming classes:

We are thrilled with Emeryville Pool and its staff. The entire program is well-organized and structured, and the staff and coaches are excellent. There are not enough good things we can say about all the staff; they are incredibly friendly, helpful, and professional.

My kids have had the pleasure of being coached by Eva, Mason, Chad, and two other coaches, and every one of them has been fantastic. Chad, in particular, has gone above and beyond to support our families. He possesses an in-depth understanding of what my daughter needs and has gone the extra mile to provide her with additional techniques to enhance her swimming skills. My daughter adores him, and she feels the connection. This connection is significant because when a child feels a bond with their teacher or coach, it boosts their motivation and makes them more likely to enjoy the class.

The positive experience we've had with Emeryville Pool and Chad has meant a lot to our family. We truly appreciate the effort and dedication the staff and coaches put into their work. It has made a significant impact on our children's swimming journey, and we are grateful for the supportive and enjoyable environment they have created.

Today was a truly special day for my daughter as she came out of her swimming class beaming with pride. She now believes she could become a JUNIOR LIFEGUARD! Witnessing her newfound confidence leaves me speechless, and I can't praise Chad and all the coaches enough. They have made the class an absolute delight, striking the perfect balance between fun and informative. Beyond merely teaching swimming, they focus on building up the children's confidence, and it's making a remarkable difference. I couldn't be happier with the progress my daughter is making and the positive impact they've had on her.
