[quote=Anonymous]In Nova, we do Norman. For kids who can swim 8&U for a summer season, the practices are a full hour, in the lanes. They do a combination of conditioning work and stroke and turn instruction. It is on the weekends. It was the perfect way for my kid to transition from a minis/Jr team summer to 8&U the following summer. It’s swim team style workouts, but without the pressure, time commitment and cost of meets. There is a Friday/Sunday option for kids who want more conditioning and yardage, but don’t want the commitment of a club team. For my younger child in kindergarten, Norman was more like swim lessons - although I do think he made progress faster than at BigBlue/Tom Dolan because they had the whole pool to work with. They did most of their work in the smaller tank, but often went to the “big pool” for part of each session and he got experience swimming a full 25m freestyle. He was confident and prepared for his Mini / Jr team tryout in June. If you go to the Norman website and reach out, Matt Norman is very responsive and can tell you if he has the right program and schedule for your swimmer’s skill level and goals. [/quote]
