[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We had a better experience at Big Blue (formerly Tom Dolan Swim School).[/quote] This.[/quote] What about it did you like better?[/quote] I think Goldfish is fine for true beginners. But once the kids are actually moving into freestyle, the quality of instruction drops off. Not to mention the silly parent comment portion at the end of every lesson, which was pointless and shortened the lesson by at least 5 minutes (maybe they stopped doing that during Covid, we were gone by then). TDSS/Big Blue seems to train and retain actual swim instructors, including club swimming coaches (I personally know 2 who coach 8U for club teams). Also, the “feel” of TDSS is less babyish, so older kids will be comfortable. [/quote]
