Group Swim Lessons

Group Swim Lessons

YMCA Swim Lessons, taught by certified American Red Cross Water Safety Instructors, help adults, kids, and families learn an important life skill and support them in gaining the knowledge, ability, and stamina to become strong and confident swimmers.

The swim lessons program is organized into three categories, each of which comprises a number of stages:

  • Parent and Child (stages A and B)—develops water enrichment and aquatic readiness in infants and toddlers age 6 month – 2 years
  • K3 Basics (stages A and B)- specifically designed for children age 3, transitions from parent and child to independent swim classes
  • Preschool Aquatics  (level 1–3)—develops personal water safety and basic swimming skills in students of all ages. Available for children ages 4-6.
  • Learn to Swim (level 1–6) – Available for youth ages 7-17
  • Group lessons consist of 8 lessons per session, ranging from 30 to 45 minutes, (this depends on the age of swimmer and stage of learning.) Parents are asked to remain in the Aquatics Department during the allotted lesson time for any child under the age of 8.

Parent and Child Swim Lessons

Blossman
4/16/24 - 10/24/24
VIEW

In Level 1 Parent and Child classes, infants and toddlers aged 6 months to 2 years are introduced to the aquatics environment.

Accompanied by a parent or guardian, infants and toddlers learn to be comfortable in the water and develop swim readiness skills through fun and confidence-building experiences, while parents and guardians learn about water safety, drowning prevention, and the importance of supervision.

Please provide your child with a swim diaper, and have a swim suit and towel for both parent and child. We have a family bathroom for changing the child after swim class.

PROGRAM REFUNDS
Request in writing made prior to the first class—100%.
Request in writing made after the first class—50%. Request
after the second class—NO REFUND. Canceled programs—
100% refund or amount may be credited toward another
course or program. All refunds not related to a Y program
cancellation will be charged a $10.00 administrative fee.
