[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, our girls were jumping off the diving board last summer at 3 and dog paddling to the wall this past summer. We did semi-private swim classes at our pool (Holmes Run Acres). Come fall, we didn't want them to lose all the progress they had made and also wanted them to learn proper strokes and breathing (to the extent possible for their age, we weren't looking for Olympic contenders). They were in Goldfish School in Falls Church from September through January and had the same issues you do - four kids per class, tons of turnover with instructors, didn't seem to be making any progress. This month we switched to semi-private lessons at Machine Swim School in Vienna and already they're doing better (still just one day a week). They do offer group lessons there but we thought the semi-private would be worth the cost and so far it is. They can legitimately swim freestyle (they'll tire about halfway through the length and start picking their heads up to breathe) and they won't be four for another month. I'd highly recommend Machine although I know the location isn't ideal for you in Burke.[/quote] OP. All PPs have been helpful. Quick question - I don’t see a semi-private option here? https://www.machineperformancecenter.com/swim-school/[/quote]
