Swimming lessons recommendations?

[chevychaseag]

I'm looking for recommendations for swimming lessons in northwest DC / Bethesda. We tried SafeSplash and were pretty disappointed - the cost, the communication, the inconsistency of teachers, the management... Really just the location felt convenient but the pool itself was really small and with the multiple classes going simultaneously such that kids had such a small area to swim in that also felt like a disadvantage with time.

Is there a good swim school nearby that folks would recommend?

Ann's Aquatics uses the same pool as SafeSplash (Embassy Suites). My kids LOVED Miss Ann and learned to swim very quickly with her around age 4. She does one class at a time and limits the number of students so the small pool size works.
