  • Kinda torn because there are really some things I like about them. They are all about safety so work on things like climbing out at the side, not the ladder (so if they ever fall in they can get out even if they are not near a ladder) and I like that they use a better alternative to chlorine. And the people are nice. But after having had 1 lesson before we came to them then 3 consecutive lessons with Charlotte aquatics my kids still can't swim. I just got notice that they wanted them to go into level 2A for the third time. To me if you can't teach a kid something after 2 times in the same level why pay again for it! My neighbor has a pool that Im afraid my kids will get into and I WANTED them swimming by the summer but over $800 later and they are still not swimming enough to move on to the next level. There are too many tragedies close to my family with children and pools and I think going too slow leaves them vulnerable. The lessons themselves are very short, and there are 2 teachers. One works with each child one on one while the other just watches the others at the side of the pool. So there is a lot of wasted time- perhaps while one teacher is working one on one the other could have them all holding on and practicing going underwater, or kicking while holding the side of the pool.... something! Just no down time, its already a short lesson and I think most parents are like me and doing if for their kids safety around water. No time for a slow pace when their lives are at stake. I will say that my son is a typical boy who isn't all that interested in swimming properly and is a little lazy and would rather goof off. But thats why I got the lessons and spent $800! I hoped they would have clever ways to get them engaged and teach them faster and more efficiently. My son needs a little pushing -not a snails pace. I let them know I was frustrated and again they were nice, but didn't solve it. I guess the only thing that would have made me happy is "your right, this is moving a bit slow" lets move them on to the next level and the next session is on us. But thats kinda a dream world solution :) There was a bunch of back and forth, to busy to call me...wanted me to come in for another assessment..more delay and slowness instead of a " Ill solve this for you, lets get your kids swimmingASAP." They do have a very specific plan for teaching the kids and are great about focusing on safety. And his teacher this last time was really nice. So if your not in a hurry and don't mind spending the money for very slow progress there are some good things here. But if your in a hurry this is not the way to go.
