No matter what your age or swimming ability Y-Swimming has a class to
suit. The Y-Swimming Programme has a strong emphasis on water safety and
developing correct swimming technique to improve efficiency and speed
and fitness all while retaining a fun and friendly atmosphere to make
learning enjoyable.
Babies as young as 6 months can enroll in swimming lessons. Y-Swimming
runs water babies’ lessons; these classes are especially designed
to introduce babies aged 6 months and older to basic swimming skills and
water safety techniques in a fun, supportive and stimulating environment.
There are so many benefits to be gained from introducing children to
swimming at an early age. There are the obvious health benefits such as
exercising limbs and lungs, developing co-ordination and motor skills.
Research has also shown that children who are introduced to water/swimming
lessons at a young age (six to 18 months) are less likely to develop a
fear of water which can be common in children who are introduced to swimming
at a later age.
Because of the YMCA’s philosophy of delivering high quality programmes
to the community Y-Swimming classes are small and friendly with highly–trained
professional instructors.
The YMCA also has a comprehensive adult swimming programme, which caters
for all levels from complete beginners right up to technique squads. Instructor
to swimmer ratios are kept low to ensure everyone receives the individual
attention that they need. Our instructors take individual goals into consideration
when structuring the lessons. Call and make a time for a free assessment.
