Swim Lessons

The YMCA is the nation’s favorite swim instructor, and we have been teaching people how to swim for 100 years. We believe that swimming is an important life skill that children should have the opportunity to learn early in life.

Research shows that formal swimming lessons can reduce the risk of drowning by 88% among children ages 1-4 years. Studies connect many additional benefits including improved motor skills, cognitive development, strength, self-esteem and social confidence.

Now featuring our brand-new curriculum powered by the American Red Cross, you'll gain essential water safety skills, confidence in and around water, and certified instruction tailored to your level.

We offer options for the whole family with classes beginning at 6 months of age, all the way up to adults.
Swimmers are divided into groups by ability and our trained, certified instructors work to develop skills and confidence in and out of the water.
Our lessons are available year-round with daytime, evening and weekend classes at multiple locations and financial assistance is available.
