[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Swim can easily be with the private groups.  We are at a cheaper group but considering a more expensive one.  Plus, $80 a week private swim lesson and 1-2 weeks of swim camp)[/quote]

I was never a swimmer, so I don't get what these lessons could involve. Once you've learned the stroke, you move your arms and legs faster than everyone else, and what else is there to know?[/quote]
My daughter swims with one of the more expensive smaller clubs and it’s $4800/yr. I don’t know a single swimmer who does private lessons. I am curious about this too. What do the private lessons do?[/quote]

Work on stroke, kick turns, diving.  They don't do stroke work and when they do in club its pretty bad.  Many of the kids we know do private but are at the cheaper club.  It helps a lot as my child is not a natural swimmer but loves it.  I wish we did the private lessons sooner.  But, with the cheaper club, summer swim, swim camp and lessons is about what you pay.  I would prefer 1-1 than a more expensive club.[/quote]
