The YMCA stands in the forefront of swimming instruction for children.

Our instructors are CPR, First Aid, AED, and Lifeguard certified. All have been trained to work with children from 6 months of age up to adults enjoying their golden years.

The YMCA boasts a tremendous swim program with participants enjoying the sport for years to come. Safety comes first. All lessons are taught in a progressive manner, but still allow for elements of fun. All programs taught are those recommended by the YMCA of the USA.
