Thanks, Andrea. Has anyone's child participated in this program? Or in another swim program you could recommend? I have a very water-shy 5yo...

Kailey and I participated in the Tot class last year at Los Altos. It was FREEZING, even though it was indoors. The water temperature wasn't kept very warm at all and then it was only a 40 minute class every day for 10 working days straight. It was rather difficult. I don't know how another indoor pool would be though for the water temperature.

My older kids have taken private lessons before at Midtown Atletic Club off of Carlisle and Lomas. It was rather cheap compared to some other private lessons I've checked into like Kays All Swim School. I've heard they're good, yet very high priced. The girl at Midtown was charging $15.00 per 30 minute session and we went once a week. We also were not charged any fees by the club as we were only there for swim class.

I wonder if there's any homeschoolers out there with a pool that would be willing to teach classes?

Hope this helps.
