A1 Swimming,

7510 Maple Avenue, Takoma Park, MD 20912

"I enrolled my 2 boys, ages 4 and 6 in A1 swimming for an 8-pack of classes and I was really pleased at their progress over the course of two months! Coach Tony is like a child whisperer. He is extremely attentive to the kids' emotions and somehow gets them to do things that it would have taken me 5 years to accomplish. My six year old knew some basic swimming techniques, but he was scared of the jets at the side of the pool, and terrified of going anywhere over his head in the water. By the second lesson, Coach Tony had them jumping into the deep end, feeling their body float and move in the water, and showing them how to get to the side. Now my six year old is excited to go swimming. We definitely achieved our goals. I know it's expensive, but I highly recommend A1 swimming."

"We've had our kids here for a while now and they LOVE going to swim lessons. Coach Tony is such a great instructor and our kids have been making incredible progress each session. From the very first class, he's been encouraging and patient with them, while also effortlessly teaching them a new skill/technique every class. We've really been enjoying seeing our kids become stronger and more confident swimmers!"

"I had an incredible experience and would wholeheartedly recommend A1 Swimming. Despite previous attempts at adult swim classes, I struggled to make progress. However, Coach Tony was an exceptional teacher. In just the first class, he had me treading water and, most importantly, helped me conquer my fear of the deep end. With his insightful feedback and effective practice tools, I took seven classes under his guidance. By the end, I not only learned to swim but felt comfortable in the pool on my own. His dedication and expert teaching made all the difference. I'm truly grateful for his support and highly recommend him and Coach Anna to anyone seeking to learn to swim effectively."

"We love Coach Tony and Coach Anna! My 2 kids are in the A1 program. The older one is developing his confidence and swimming strokes and the toddler is learning to be comfortable in the pool. The coaches do a great job of targeting the lessons to the kid's level and encourage them to grow."

"For anyone comparing with the chain swimming schools, I highly recommend going with A1. The lessons include much more actual active swimming time, and the instruction is great. My 9 and 11 year old have really enjoyed their swimming lessons with Coach Tony, and they have progressed very quickly. They are currently learning butterfly and breaststroke, and they are both very proud they can beat their mother in a swimming race."
