🤿 Dive into Summer with YMCA Aquatics! 

Whether you’re just getting comfortable in the water or training for competition, we have a swim program for every age and skill level! Our swim lessons start as young as 6 months old and continue all the way through adult lessons, helping swimmers build confidence, safety skills, and a lifelong love of the water.

Looking for the next step after lessons? Join our Summer Swim Team! Swimmers will have the opportunity to improve technique, build endurance, and be part of a fun and encouraging team environment. We’re also excited to announce a new Saturday practice time this summer to give families even more flexibility.
