Swim Lessons

Strong Swimmers = Confident Kids

At the Y, swimming is a life skill. Our swim lessons prepare kids of all ages for safe and fun swimming experiences, building strong swimmers and confident kids. Our YMCA swim instructors are nationally certified with CPR, AED, First Aid and Oxygen Administration training.

Our lessons begin with the Swim Starters Program, where an adult family member/guardian accompanies the infant/toddler in the water. Swim basics for preschoolers and pre-teens include water acclimation, water movement, and water stamina. This age group also has the opportunity to learn swim strokes.
