Kids Group Swim Lessons : (3+ Years)

The Prescott YMCA offers group swim lessons for kids throughout the year. You must register for each session separately and you can not register your child for a subsequent session until the final day of their current session. It is not uncommon for children to participate in a specific level more than once so please check with your child’s instructor on the last day of their session to find out which class/level they need to be enrolled in the next time they take lessons. Please sign your child up for the class/level that best corresponds with their swimming ability, noting that we reserve the right to move them into a different class/level on the first day if we feel that they are better suited for a different class.
