Children participate with a parent in the water. A low student-teacher ratio allows participants to safely develop skills and confidence in the water. Swimmers progress through Stages A and B of the Y's Swim Lessons Stages.
PRESCHOOL SWIM LESSONS
For Ages 3 to 5
Children may participate without a parent in the water. A low student-teacher ratio allows participants to safely develop skills and confidence in the water. Your child's stage will be based on their swim skills, and children will advance through stages as skills improve.
SCHOOL-AGE SWIM LESSONS
For ages 5 to 12
Children are taught progressively, each stage building on skills taught in previous stages. A low student-teacher ratio allows participants to safely develop skills and confidence in the water. Swimmers will be placed based on skill level.
