The Aquatic Department at the Pomona Valley YMCA provides a wide range of programs. We have programs that provide benefits for you no matter what your interest or skill level may be. Our Swim lessons begin with children (age 3) and continue to advanced swim classes. The water aerobics class is a great way for seniors to stay healthy and fit. Our water volleyball program gives any adult a chance to play a competitive game in a non-competitive environment. Recreational swim times are for kids of all ages to come and play. And our lap swim sessions are an opportunity to work out on your own.
Learning to swim at the YMCA is more than just stroke development! A variety of class times and levels are available to meet your family's individual needs. Class size is determined by considering safety factors, participants' ages, and skill level. We focus on individual instruction in a group setting so participants may be challenged to achieve their personal best. The YMCA stands at the forefront of swimming instruction for children. Children and parents like the YMCA Swim Lesson program because it starts with those skills that children are ready to learn. They are able to succeed often, which helps them build self-confidence, and they enjoy learning swimming, water safety and water sports skills. Most importantly, however, children in the program have a great time learning how to swim and make new friends.
