Subject: Beginner Swimming Lessons in Southern Colorado
Hey all,

Total beginner here, just starting to dip my feet into the world of triathlons. I'm currently overweight, but that's part of the point of the process for me. I've already started working on the running and cycling pieces, but am totally avoiding the swimming portion. I'm an adult, but have never really had formal swimming lessons. I can float around the pool, but I have no clue when it comes to actually swimming. I'm looking to take some swimming lessons and was wondering if anyone had any recommendations for private, adult swimming lessons in southern Colorado? I actually live in Pueblo, so I would prefer something here, but would be willing to drive to Colorado Springs for some quality lessons.

The only thing I have found thus far is an old site from 2009 for CSU Pueblo adult lessons. I will be reaching out to them as well as the YMCA where I work out. But I definitely appreciate any recommendations for lessons people have actually used.

Thanks a bunch!
