Hi,
I would like to know if you can recommend some nice swimming lessons in Eagan for my 3 1/2 years old son (preferable for Sat morning).

What can I do next?

We also did a swim class through ECFE in the district (the catalog that should come in the mail). It was not as expensive as some of these places listed and I thought they did a good job.

Family Swim School. They're fantastic. I've found Foss to be crowded and loud. http://www.familyswim.com/

Is there a Foss Swim School near you? They do a terrific job. Expensive, but worth every penny.

I second the Family Swim School, but it doesn't have Saturday mornings. It isn't cheap, but the water is warm, the class sizes are small and the teachers are very experienced. Both of my boys are excellent swimmers because of the Family Swim School. (Eagan location doesn't have the best locker room setup, but it's worth it.) Let me know if you have any questions.

The Southwest YMCA. My daughter has been swimming there since she was 6 months old.

Wise Swim School has been great for us, too. However, it has some limitations once the kids get beyond a certain level. My 6 year old, for instance, is ready for a YMCA-type class. She has excellent skills in the crawl and the backstroke, but is ready to be pushed a little more. Ultimately, Wise is great for introducing swimming, learning to swim under water, learning the basic strokes, and then you'll need to switch to a more progressive program.

I agree with the mom who recommended Foss Swim School. Weekends do tend to be a lot busier than weekdays, but they are worth the hassle. All 3 of my kids have taken lessons there and have become quite the swimmers. Expensive, but very worth it.
