Swimming

Learn personal safety skills, stroke development, and water sports while building confidence in the water.

Through various aquatic programs, the Y not only helps develop swimming and water safety skills, but also focuses on members' needs, as well as those of the community. From preschoolers to adults, overcoming fear of the water and developing water and swimming skills are rewarding. And, it promotes better health as a physical activity that can be performed throughout life.

Since 1885, the YMCA has been an innovator and leader in aquatic program development for the world.
