Swim Lessons
71% of the world is water, children are 100% curious. Drowning can happen nearly anywhere with standing water. But, as a parent or caregiver, you can’t keep your children sidelined. You need to equip them with the tools they need to be confident in and around water so they don’t lose out on the health benefits of exercise, the opportunities to bond with family and friends, and the sense of accomplishment when they learn new skills.
With our YMCA, we enrich children and adults how to properly and safely move in the water. We offer private, semi-private, and group lessons at various branches. As we are a part of the Coastal Empire, it is vital that everyone learn how to swim.
2's & 3's
