Our Aquatic Center includes a six-lane Lap Pool, Small Warm Water Pool, and a Zero-Depth Kids’ Pool. Both lap swim and open swim are available. We also have a climbing wall and starting blocks available in our Lap Pool. Additionally, if you’re interested in learning lap swimming basics, getting workout ideas or want to learn how to use aquatics equipment, join us for our weekly Intro to Lap Swim course – FREE for members! We also offer adaptive programming for members with special needs.
YMCA Swim School takes a safety-first approach, focusing on small class sizes, boosting confidence in the water, building student/instructor relationships, and allowing each student to progress at their own pace. Our lessons develop aquatic readiness, engage in underwater exploration, and teach children important water safety skills. We offer warm water options, year-round lessons, certified instructors, and more!
The YMCA provides swimming lessons to swimmers of all ages and skill levels, from infants to adults! We also offer private lessons, semi-private lessons, and adaptive lessons for swimmers with special needs.
With lap swimming, open and family swim times, water exercise classes, swim lessons, Gators swim team, and more, the YMCA provides an enjoyable outlet of aquatic fun and fitness for the entire family! The Fercho YMCA also offers programs, services and equipment for those with special needs.
