Pedalheads. Their bike camps are pretty good too.

Main thing I think that helped with advancing the swimming is that the classes are 50/55 mins, rather than 30 mins. Nothing against the instructors at the public pools, but 30 mins per lesson, Even at 4 kids limit per class meant that the instructor only has enough time to demo the skill. Then each kid gets 1 shot at the skill, demo 2 other things and that's the end of the lesson.

then it's onto the next skill. With the extended time in the private classes, they kids have more water time to work on the skills.
Not to mention, if your kid needs to go pee during a lesson, during a 30 min public class, you're done for the day.
