Danville Family YMCA Swimming Lessons
Water safety is of utmost importance to us at the Y. Each year countless injuries occur as a result of an individual’s inability to swim. It is our prerogative to ensure the safety of our community when enjoying themselves near water by making swimming lessons always available and affordable.
While the schedule changes each year, our lessons are always ongoing. From the young to the not so young, we offer lessons for nearly everyone! The youth and adult swim lessons operate on the same session-based schedule as outlined below. The Parent-Tot schedule can be found on the table at the bottom.

What are the FEES?
Each session is $60 for members and $120 for non-members. Scholarships are also available.
Swim Lesson Overview
Youth lessons are structured around small groups not exceeding 6 indivduals. Based upon ability each child is placed at a starting level and advances to the next level only when able to proficiently and safely perform the skills with the current level. We expect each child to learn and progress at their own rate, therefore; please don’t be discouraged if your child doesn’t complete all the skills within their level during any one session. Your child needs to know that it is acceptable to take as much time as is necessary to master the skills.
