The YMCA has long been America’s favorite swimming instructor. Whether just learning how to swim, improving strokes or taking water exercise classes, members are in safe hands with our certified swimming instructors and lifeguards.

Both children and adults learn to swim at our indoor pools in a wide variety of skill-level programs.  We offer smaller, shallower instructional pools to ease newcomers into the skills like kicking, paddling and holding their breath. Parents are also invited into the water with their infants and toddlers for hands-on classes.  

All swim lessons are free to YMCA Members and all swim lessons have the following 5 components:  

• Personal Safety,
• Stroke Development,
• Personal Growth,
• Water Sports
• Games and Rescues.  

Adults looking to challenge themselves without stress on their joints or members who just need a little extra help from the water can take advantage of our different water exercise and therapy classes.  Instructors lead small groups through water aerobics, core strengthening and much more.

The Geary Family YMCA offers members to sign up for the first 2 fitness classes for FREE!
