    Have you looked in Kids First Swim in Bel Air? They have a new location or maybe that's a location for just signing up. I know they have a Fallston location.

    Does the Y do swimming lessons?

    I keep hearing about Kids First Swim School, and there is a new location in the Festival. I have also heard about Aquaculture in Forest Hill. You could also try the Arena Club or Bel Air Athletic Club, and I am not sure if any of the Y locations have pools.

    Thanks ladies!

    Sadly the Y doesn't have a pool yet.  They're still raising funds to build it, which I hope happens soon!

    A girl I work with at the restaurant also lifeguards at a pool in Aberdeen and was just talking about swim lessons there with another server who has kids. I know it was $70 I can't remember how many sessions though.

    I am taking Collin to Kids First and that was $90 for 6 sessions.

    Aquaculture in Forest Hill! By far the best. I went to Kids First Swim in Forest Hill and was NOT impressed. Dirty facility, teachers weren't great. Aquacultures has a great rep!

    https://www.aquacultureswimschool.com/ in Forest Hill is the best by far! I went to Kids First Swim in Forest Hill and was NOT impressed. Dirty facility and teachers were less than enthusiastic. Don't waste your $$ or time. Try Aquaculture, everyone in my mom's group goes there and I've been to the facility - nice and clean!

    We've been to a birthday party at Kids First in Forest Hill and the chlorine was so overpowering that our cheeks were red and eyes hurt for a while after we left. I get that they have to use a lot of it because of all the germs or whatever, but wow. I wouldn't go back there for swim lessons.

    That being said, there is a new Kids First at the Festival - where Bombay used to be, beside Shoprite. I would consider going there because its new and although I don't know about the chlorine smell, I imagine that its a lot cleaner than the Forest Hill one. 

    I've also heard good things about AquaCulture.

    They do private lessons at the Bulle Rock pool...not sure if they would be open to non-residents but it's worth a shot to call and ask.  They have some sessions this summer of group lessons outside too.
