How much do you pay for swimming lessons?

[caykon]

Just wondered really as have just enrolled my 2 in lessons 10 weeks for £75 each. Wondered if this was good bad or normal. Only wondered as it is more expensive than gymnastics which is renowned for being an expensive hobby.

£4 per lesson, payable at the start of each term.

thats almost half the price of mine

I can't remember the exact amount but it's just over £50 per term so about 12 lessons.

£57 for 13 weeks.

£62.00 for 14weeks payable at the end of the last term, it really narks me that I have paid for the next term starting in September
so the swimming group is getting the interest in their bank not mine.

mine definately does seem a bit steep

I use an independent company that hires out pool space, I think the local leisure centre would be ££££ more, and you always have to rebook before term ends to keep your place, that would annoy me.

£52 for 10 weeks.

£75 - ouch! How many in the class (instructor / pupil ratio?)

It is a privately hired pool that belongs to someones house. There are about 10 in a class.
I think I will go with it for now and put their names down for the local sports centre don't hold my breath though to get a place

10 in the group for £75 seems very steep. In fact, 10 in the group sounds like a lot... unless there are a couple of teachers.

DD has solo lessons at £20 an hour.

10 in a class for swimming seems far to many?

Unless you are talking squad level or just below? Then you could well have 20 in the pool and two instructors

Here is is £7.00/half an hour in a group lesson of 8-10 kids.
It is rubbish and takes 2 years x 3 terms at £70 per term before they seem to learn anything.

I am tempted by the private lesson to get it all done with for much less.

My dd's swimming has come on amazingly. The one on one lessons have been worth every penny.

£9 per 30 min lesson in a class of four (5 yos)

have you got a swimming club in your area?

Wow, I only pay £34 for 10 weeks ! would seem that's cheap!

it seems my instinct was right and it is a little steep.
people rave about her lessons and she seems to get results so I will give it a go, but as soon as my dd turns 5 in march she can swim with local swim club, so maybe won't be too bad for the short term.

£90 per term. 4 kids to one teacher.

I pay by DD.
£22 per month for one half hour lesson per week. Works out at £5 per half hour. This is the local coucil pool in a group of between 4-8 children.

£48 for 10 lessons; a private instructor in a school pool. Sometimes there are only three or four in a class.

Our local Leisure Centre charges way more.

my dd's wswim club is £3.40 per session of 45 minutes - then a yearly membership - but dd2 is the member and I think it is around £40 oer year

but this is for a session every single week

I only pay £65 for tri club abd that is two hours every other week/26 weeks of the year one hour swimming though only freestyle and one hour running and bike - value IMO

DD has only had the free term of lessons at school so far, but I'm hoping to get her into lessons soon.
They are £35 for 10 according to the leaflet I have here. I'd presume that's half hour lessons.
