Swim Instruction is for everyone
The YMCA, referred to as “America’s Favorite Swim Instructor,”
not only teaches you how to swim, but you also learn
about yourself, about safety and rescue skills and about
water activities you can enjoy for a lifetime. Instruction
is caring and personalized. Class size is determined
by considering safety factors and the age of the participants,
making sure classes don’t get too big to be comfortable.
