Preschool Group Swim Lessons
Group Lessons
As the largest provider of swim lessons in the country, there’s no one more qualified than the Y to ensure swimmers build confidence with every stroke. Welcoming kids and adults of all ages and abilities, our program offers a clear progression track to monitor achievement while every lesson emphasizes personal safety around water.
Lesson Pricing
Registration includes eight 30- or 45-minute lessons during reserved time in your Y’s pool. Determine your lesson level here.
Program Components
Certified Y instructors foster a safe, educational, and FUN environment where swimmers feel empowered to meet and exceed their goals. Safe swimming saves lives.
Swim Basics (Stages 1-3)
Students learn personal water safety and achieve basic swimming competency by learning two benchmark skills:
* Swim, float, swim – sequencing front glide, roll, back float, and exit.
* Jump, push, turn, grab
Swim Strokes (Stages 4-6)
Having mastered the fundamentals, students learn additional water safety skills and build stroke technique, developing skills that prevent chronic disease, increase social-emotional and cognitive well-being, and foster a lifetime of physical activity.

Full refund granted if request is made prior to the first day of lessons
