[quote=Anonymous]This was me as a kid, so I just have to weigh in. I was 10 and could barely swim and we moved to a Place where all the kids could swim at age 4 and had been training for years. I stuck it out 3 years and hated every second. I never got to rest when training--the other kids would finish a set and get a couple minutes to catch their breath, but I was so far behind that by the time I'd finished, they'd already started the next set. I felt like I was drowning half the time. I did learn to swim but it was a miserable way to spend my summers. There are many swim instructors that do pre-swim team small group lessons that focus on getting kids to the point that they can swim laps decently. I recommends this instead. Or private lessons telling tE instructor what you hope to gain.[/quote]
