With schools out and programs temporarily suspended in response to COVID-19, we have a variety of home activities that can develop and maintain the skills learned in our swim lesson program. You can refer to the swim lesson program information to isolate specific activities that match the skills currently being taught in the interrupted swim session. Click the Link Below.
Swim Lessons provide important life skills that could save a life, and will benefit you for a lifetime. All YMCA swim instructors are nationally certified and are trained in CPR, AED, First Aid and Oxygen Administration. Swim year-round in our heated, indoor pools and swim with the folks that created group swim lessons!
During scheduled Open Swim times, the pool is available for members who wish to participate in non-lap swim activities, as well as to relax and enjoy our pool. It is a great time to workout independently or have family time to play together in the pool. Children under 9 must be accompanied into the water by an adult.
Core stabilization and balance, flexibility, strength, power and endurance training are the foundation of a well-rounded fitness routine. Our Aqua Body Strong classes incorporate all of these elements in each class to provide you with the most amount of benefits.
The Mesabi Family YMCA and American Red Cross Lifeguard Program prepares individuals for a lifeguard position.
Private lessons offer individualized instruction for all skill levels and all ages. With a 1:1 student to instructor ratio, we can personalize your swim training to meet your needs and goals. Classes are arranged between you and the instructor offering customized scheduling that fits your life.
YMCA Swim Lessons help adults, kids, and families learn an important life skill and support them in gaining the knowledge, ability, and stamina to become strong and confident swimmers.
