CONFIDENCE WITH A SPLASH OF FUN! Swim Lessons At The Y
Swimming is a great way for your child to gain self-confidence, learn new skills and become safer in and around the water. Our swim lesson curriculum is based on the YMCA’s Swim Lesson Program and levels are broken up into Parent and Child, pre-school and school aged swim levels. Our Swim Lesson programming and classes are developmentally appropriate and teach skills well beyond just swimming.

The pre-requisite for each level is the successful demonstration of skills from the preceding level, except for Stage 1, which has no pre-requisites other than the swimmer must be at least five years old and currently attending Kindergarten. Each level includes water safety topics, progressive swim skills, learning through play and discussions about the YMCA four core values of Caring, Honesty, Respect and Responsibility.

Questions about our Swim Lesson program and which level would be appropriate for your swimmer? Please contact Aquatics Director, Eryn Thostenson at ethostenson@waldocountyymca.org and click on the link below to learn more information about our Swim Lesson Programs and swim levels.

We are currently only offering Private Swim Lessons.
