Group Swim Lessons
Group swim lessons are a great way for you or your child to learn and strengthen your skills in the water amongst friends.
The Daviess County Family YMCA offers Levels 1-3 for children ages 4-12. (Level 3 is new as of Fall 2024!) We also offer adult group swimming lessons. All classes follow the YMCA’s overall swimming lesson curriculum. Levels are explained below:
LEVEL 1: is the beginning of water acclimation where your child will increase their comfort in the water, learn basic water safety skills and will lay the foundation for their future swimming progress. This level is suggested for 4-6 year olds, but can be for 7-12 year olds if they are just beginning their swim journey and/or have fears in the water.
LEVEL 2: encourages forward movement in the water and basic water safety skills performed more independently. This level is suggested for 7-9 year olds but can be for more advanced 4-6 year olds or 10-12 year olds who can begin to swim more by themselves.
LEVEL 3: develops more stamina in the water as they swim longer distances independently as well as practicing other swimming skills on their own. This level is suggested for 10-12 year olds, but can be for more advanced 4-6 year olds or 7-9 year olds who can swim by themselves.
ADULT: is for 18+ year olds who have little to no experience in the water and desire to start or improve their swimming
Adult
Adult Group Lessons focus on increasing the swimming abilities, water safety and self-confidence of the adult beginner. Participants will learn how to float and kick in the water, leading up to learning the basic structure of strokes. Instructors will adapt their teaching based on current skill levels of all participants.
