Powdersville Swim Lessons

Powdersville Swim Lessons

At the Y, we believe the ability to swim is a critical life skill that every child should have the opportunity to learn. When you learn to swim, you gain confidence, acquire safety skills and experience water activities you can enjoy for a lifetime.

We are excited for the newest upgrades in our YMCA swim lesson curriculum. This new curriculum helps each participant experience a sense of accomplishment after each lesson, build relationships with other swimmers, and advance more quickly through the stages.

Financial Assistance is available for those who qualify.

INFORMATION FOR SUCCESS IN SWIM LESSONS

  • First Day Expectations
    Please make sure your children come dressed and ready to get in the pool 5 minutes prior to the class start time. Check in with the Front Desk where they can direct you to the pool waiting area. You will be met by an Aquatics staff member to help guide you to your child’€™s class. The instructors will evaluate the participant’€™s swimming ability. If the participant needs to be moved up or down a level, the instructor will notify the Swim Lesson Coordinator to move the participant to the appropriate level.
  • May I observe my child’€™s class?
    Yes! All parents are encouraged to watch the swim lessons, though we ask all parents to sit on the bleachers or chairs on the pool deck as this removes additional distractions. If your presence distracts your child, the instructor or deck supervisor may ask you to wait outside the pool area to maximize your child’€™s learning process and not interfere with the class. Parents may also wait in the lobby, but you cannot leave the YMCA premises during lessons.
  • We cannot attend class – can we schedule a make-up lesson?
    There are no make-ups for missed classes whether your child is sick, out of town or unable to attend. Your child may not attend a class at another time slot in place of a missed class as there are guidelines for a safe instructor:participant ratio.
  • What happens if the pool closes due to weather?
    If there is thunder or lightning, the pool will be closed for thirty minutes from the last incidence. Make ups will be offered if time allows. Credits will not be issued for weather related cancellations.
  • How long will it take my child to learn to swim?
    Children progress at their own speed, and it is common for a swimmer to remain at the same level for a complete year of classes before advancing. A child’€™s self esteem, confidence, and strength development are all important aspects in determining progression to the next level.

“I cannot say enough positive things about the private swim lessons our son, Charlie took from Britney at the Pickens YMCA. She and I discussed our goals at the first lesson, and he continuously progressed to meeting all of them after only two months of weekly lessons. Without private swim lessons, I feel that Charlie would not have been able to start being a member of the Piranhas Swim Team as quickly as he has. We are very grateful to his coach for teaching him in a positive and motivating manner.” ~Meredith, Parent of Child, Private Swim Lesson participant
