Our swim lessons work to develop water safety knowledge, swim technique skills, endurance, and confidence in each of our program participants. Learning to swim provides valuable aquatic survival skills to community members and helps to promote positive values. Our wide range of classes ensure that there is an opportunity to grow for everyone, regardless of age or skill level! 

Swim lesson levels are offered at all available time slots! If you have multiple children - they can all take lessons at the same time! Sign Ups are the second Wednesday of each month, for classes starting the following month. 

Our water fitness classes are perfect for adults looking to challenge themselves without stress on their joints or for members who just enjoy the water. Our group exercise classes help each participant to gain muscle conditioning and cardiovascular endurance through aerobic choreography and the resistance of the water. 

Are you prepared for an emergency, inside or outside of an aquatics environment? Our American Red Cross lifeguarding, first aid, and CPR/AED certification courses will prepare you to reduce risk of injury and death and to respond in times of need.
