[quote=Anonymous]Is anyone else’s kid in summer swim team? How did your kid learn to swim/prepare to be on swim team? Looking for recommendations for swim lessons or a private swim instructor in MoCo to help my daughter. This is our first year doing swim team. My daughter didn’t know how to swim when we started a month ago but the team was desperate for kids so she made the team. There’s very little instruction (since there’s so many kids in the lanes and the junior coaches are only in there to make sure they’re not drowning). She has picked up freestyle and backstroke. She manages to be pretty fast and made it into the A meets but her technique isn’t there yet. I just signed her up group swim lessons after we made the team but I feel like it’s a waste of money and she’s not learning anything. Is there a place that can help her improve her technique and correct her if she’s wrong so she doesn’t learn the wrong thing? Does anyone have any suggestions?[/quote]
