Aquatics at The Garland Family YMCA

The YMCA has been called "America's Favorite Swim Instructor" for over 100 years.  At the Y, not only will you learn how to swim, you’ll learn about yourself, about safety and rescue skills, and about water activities you can enjoy for a lifetime.  Throughout all levels, students are taught aquatic & boating safety,  rescue skills and the importance of character values.   We also offer aquatics exercise classes and competitive swim programs for adults and youth. Class size is determined by both safety factors and age of participants and is closely monitored to ensure safety. All our instructors provide caring, personal instruction and all have completed a 25 hour YMCA Swim Instructor course.
