[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] There is also the Shriver pool. They have sessions that run all year round for group lessons - better price if you are a county resident. They offer private lessons there as well.[/quote] Not a fan of the Shriver pool group lessons for older kids (i.e. K/1/2nd). Ok for the young ones where the parent is in the water too though kid won't learn much. Instructors are hit or miss, and when they're a "miss," you might as well be throwing your money down the drain, and if your kid is a bit sensitive/sensory then you risk him turning off to swim lessons across the board. When I reflect on my own experience, I realize I learned to swim in four steps: paddling around as a tot with mom or dad; then organized daily swim instruction at day camp; a few one on one sessions when mom or dad chatted up a friendly lifeguard; and year round swim outdoor and indoor for fun.
