Swim Lessons/Summer
YMCA Aquatics is about water safety, skill development and fun for everyone. We have an aquatic program for every skill level and interest.
The YMCA offers a wide range of swimming options for the whole family. Swimming builds self-confidence and develops the whole person – spirit, mind and body. Classes are divided into ability groups and trained instructors emphasize personal safety, swimming skills, endurance and social skills, while guiding students with praise and encouragement.
Summer swim lessons are offered in 2-week sessions for facility and program members ages 6 months to adult. Friday is reserved as an inclement weather make-up day. Lessons are at the Coppinger Family YMCA.**
