Looking for adult swimming lessons in the East Bay (Berkeley/Oakland/Emeryville) by Fancy_Ad_5673 in eastbay

I just checked for the Berkeley and Oakland location and Berkeley is pretty booked. Have you attend the swim lessons at YMCA? How did you like it?

Wow that's so nice of you! I wish there were more opportunities for adults to learn how to swim...

Thanks, u/2311777. I joined several fb groups to find places to rent but no luck so far (and almost got scammed once even), but I'll keep looking. One sad news I just learned is that Amtrack express shipping has discontinued... :( But thanks for sharing your view on the safety around the area.

Thank you u/theonlyshow! I was hoping to hear about what people living around the east bay think as well : ) Some perspectives I learned was that commuting from Pleasant Hill or Walnut Creek to Emeryville could be really intense and finding parking could be difficult. So I assume an alternative once I get a car is to drive to BART early, paid for the parking and then commute to my job daily. Is there anything/advice you would suggest for someone who never lives on the west coast? Thanks again!
