The Y is known as America’s leading swim instructor. Ys have been teaching people to swim for more than a century. In our aquatic programs, children learn to be safe around water and they feel the sense of accomplishment that comes with learning something new.
Our programs include parent/toddler introductory programs, preschool and youth progressive swim lessons, youth swim team, master swim team, lap swimming and family fun! Youth progressive swimming is the Y's third most widely offered program across the country. It uses a problem-solving, guided-discovery teaching approach in a positive, caring environment. Children develop lifelong skills that help them stay healthy and safe.
