Hello Neighbors,

 

I want to share the "results" of my swimming lesson querry.  By the way, I received over thirty replies - thank you!

 

1. Kingsley Association - This looks like the best bet.  The price is unbeatable - $150 for a year's family membership.  They have classes for children on Saturday mornings and some weekday nights.  Location is unbeatable, too.  Kingsley Association is a neighborhood resource deserving support.

 

2.  Oliver Bathhouse - Not so convenient but the price is great and pool access is year-round if you still have your summer pool tags. 

 

3.  University of Pittsburgh - Kinderkinetics program runs year-round but is a hefty committment of $200 per session and takes up most of a Saturday morning.  Swim lessons are part of a greater children's fitness program.

 

4.  CMU - Must be a CMU employee or student so that's out.

 

5.  Sarah Heinz Center - Over on the Northshore and it's a bit of a hike but offers a huge assortment of lessons and many other sports.

 

6.  YMCA (Allegheny and Penn Hills) - A bit of a hike for this East Side person.  Very good swimming lessons, though.

 

7.  Club One - Close but expensive.  Swimming lessons start in January, last for 30 minutes.  $150 for eight 30 min. lessons.  That does not include additional pool time. 

 

Those are my findings.
