Swim Lessons

The YMCA has long been America’s favorite swimming instructor. In Y swim lessons, students learn water safety skills, build stroke technique, develop skills that prevent chronic disease, decrease high blood pressure, increase cognitive well-being and foster a lifetime of physical activity. Swim lessons are available for infants, youth, teens and adults at times designed to fit your busy schedule. Group and private options available to ensure success for each person’s learning style.

Swim Team

The purpose of the Lakeland Hills Family YMCA Swim Team is to use competition as a means of learning the lifelong values of goal setting and discipline for success. Swimmers will learn to improve their skills as well as learn the value of teamwork and sportsmanship within a competitive atmosphere led by capable coaches.

The LHY Swim Team competes in the NJ YMCA Swim League and USA Swimming competitions. For more information, contact the swim team office or log on to our team website at www.lhyswim.com.

Drowning Elimination

The world is 71% water. Are your children 100% prepared? Drowning is the second leading cause of death in children under the age of 14 in Texas. According to the Center for Disease Control, formal swim lessons can reduce drowning by 88%. Teaching children how to swim and be safe around water is one of the most important life skills parents can help their children learn.
