Aquatics (Seasonal)
Swim Lessons
Available for Infants - Adults
Swim lessons are one of the most popular programs at the YMCA because we are successful in teaching children and adults to be safe and to enjoy the water. Our aquatics team at The Granite YMCA has evaluated our swim lesson program and has implemented a skill-based swim program designed to teach safety, technique, and positive swim values while promoting self-esteem, and fun. Take a look at our helpful chart if you are wondering which swim class you should enroll your child in.
For older swimmers, learn to swim and train with the nationwide leader in aquatics!
