Swim Lessons

The infant/toddler classes are for water acclimation of swimmers from 6 months to 3 years of age. We have up to 8 parent child pairs per class and do a mix of songs, activities, and instruction to gain comfort and swimming readiness.

Once the child is 3 years of age, they will move up to our Preschool 1 class.

Preschool Age classes encapsulates the YMCA core values by instructing swimmers aged 3-5 that are ready to participate in class without an adult. We use games, toys, instructional flotation, and structured activities to gain safety and independence leading to swimming technique. Classes include 1-4 swimmers of similar abilities.

School Age classes are for swimmers 6-12 years of age where they learn the YMCA core values, safety, independence, swim technique, and share the joy of swimming. Classes include 4-6 swimmers of similar abilities. Stages 1 through 3 focus on water safety and basic technique, while stages 4 through 6 refine technique and endurance.
