Swim lessons recommendations?

Submitted by hihellohi765 t3_yq2yby in springfieldMO

We have our almost 10 year old enrolled in Diventures. It's not cheap, which is fine, but we're not super impressed with it or how much actual swim time our daughter gets.

Does anyone have any recommendations besides them?

Try Springfield gymnastics and aquatic center off of cherry.

We left Diventures and spent the money on a family membership to Chesterfield Family Center. It makes us the teacher, but it's actually been a lot of fun and cheaper.

Not for everyone, but maybe an alternative!

Really wanting to get a family membership this tax season. Wanted to last year but had to get a new car lol. I like this idea!

Same. Lots of $$$. For a few minutes of swimming per lesson. Try Springfield aquatics. And their teachers are more consistent.

Although not helpful now since it's November but the Parks dept offers very affordable swim lessons in the summer. I believe sign up starts up in Spring.

Also I'd check to see if the Boys n Girls club has any swim programs.

Price, no problem. We're super impressed with the product. Geez guess we better buy something else...

So they meant to type "not super impressed". You either can read through the mistake and choose not to, or you actually can't read through a mistake.

Thanks!

Changed it in an edit, but yeah. It's expensive. Not impressed. Not a lot of swim time. Would pay the money if it seemed like a good value.
