With our group swim programs, you can learn to swim, improve your swimming ability or advance to the next level of fitness and skill.

Take Your Swimming to the Next Level
The YWCA Swim Programs were developed by our expert Aquatics team. The four levels are designed to support you in meeting your swim goals whether you’re a beginner or seasoned swimmer! Our experienced lifeguards have been trained in the YWCA Swim Programs and are certified in Water Safety Instruction & Coaching. They can accommodate varying skill and fitness levels - you'll get the guidance, support and motivation to succeed. Class sizes have been reduced to support a safe learning environment.
