Swim Lessons - School Age (Ages 6-12)

Each class is led by a YMCA Certified Swim Instructor with a max of 5 children. This small child to instructor ratio ensures safety, quality and engagement of all children.

Students learn personal water safety and achieve basic swimming competency by learning two benchmark skills.

Swim, float, swim
jump, push, turn, grab.
These skills are recommended for all ages to have around water.

 

**Due to unpredictable weather we may have make up days, which are on Fridays at the same time as your normal lesson. A full set of lessons consists of 6 lessons.
