Learn to Swim with the Leader!

Since 1885, the YMCA has been an innovator and leader in aquatic program development for the world. Today YMCA Aquatics continues to build self-esteem, encourage water safety and provide a lifetime of fitness opportunities.

Fountain Valley YMCA offers Spring and Summer Swimming Lessons at the District 8 pool in the Fountain-FortCarson High School Sports Complex.

American's Swimming Instructor

In 1998, the YMCA revised its world famous swim instruction program to incorporate the latest research on learning. Whether a person is afraid of water or eager to learn, caring YMCA Swimming Instructors emphasize safety, fun, and progressive learning success for each student.

The YMCA of the Pikes Peak Region offers Parent-child classes starting as young as 3 months that teach parents how to safely work with their child in the pool through hands on classes. Pre-school through adult classes are arranged by skill level, and some YMCAs also offer private, semi-private and special needs classes.

Looking for work that is very rewarding? If you are caring, good at working with people, a good role model, and age 16 or older, consider becoming a YMCA Swimming Instructor!
