Swim Lessons

No matter what the swim level, we have an instructor who can help you or your child achieve greater confidence and skill in the water. All lessons are taught by certified American Red Cross Water Safety Instructors and Water Safety Aides.

The YWCA offers class-based lessons for infants, toddlers, youth and adults at all three Minneapolis health and fitness locations. In addition, private and semi-private lessons are offered for a more personalized learning experience.

For those persuing swimming as a sport, the YWCA also offers Total Immersion swim instruction to fine-tune your competitive stroke, or get ready for a triathlon.
