Swim Lesson Details
The YMCA has long served as America's beloved swimming instructor. Whether learning how to swim or taking water exercise classes, members are in safe hands with our certified swimming instructors and lifeguards. The year-round aquatic programs are about more than just techniques and skills; they are about building friendships, developing self-esteem and creating positive experiences that last a lifetime.
Preschool Skill Progression
We emphasize fun, exercise, parent education, water adjustment, boating safety, and general safety. Besides a place where your child can learn skills, the water presents many opportunities for you to share fun with your child and to learn more about him/her.
Youth Skill Progression
Youth swimming lessons are for children who have finished Kindergarten and up, and the lessons are by ability not age. Swimming is an important safety skill, great exercise, and a life-long sport. Oneonta Family YMCA offers swim lessons for all ages and levels, and focuses on safety, confidence, and skill progression.
