[quote=Anonymous]Weekly rec lessons got our kid there at 7, but the first few weeks of swim team were really hard for him. It’s better if you can find something that meets multiple times a week, even if it’s for a short period of time to get them to really learn without forgetting between lessons - you can then maintain with weekly lessons until swim season. We saw the most progress with 2 weeks of daily lessons (hard to find in winter). If she isn’t ready for swim team next summer I’d definitely recommend you go this route, or look for a pool with a pre-team. My second kid was physically ready for swim team at a young 6, but not emotionally (the intensity freaked him out at the beginning of the season) so we held off a year.[/quote]
