School-Age Group Swim Lessons

School-Age Group Swim Lessons

From Swim Basics to Swim Strokes – At the Y, we believe knowing how to swim is a critical life skill. Our swim lesson instructors will use a variety of methods to help your child overcome fears, build self-confidence, learn water safety and have fun!

Stages 1 & 2 focus on water acclimation and water movement. These lessons increase comfort with underwater exploration and introduce basic self-rescue skills performed with assistance. Beyond acclimation, lessons build forward movement in water and basic self-rescue skills performed independently.

Stages 3 & 4 develop intermediate self-rescue skills performed at longer distances than in previous stages while also introducing basic stroke techniques in front crawl and back crawl and reinforcing water safety through treading water and elementary backstroke.

Ages: 5-12

Important Notes:

  • Parents must remain in the pool area during swim lessons.
  • Financial Assistance is available for those that qualify. Please visit https://www.pcymca.net/financial-assistance/ for more information.
