Swim lesson sign-ups are closed! We are no longer accepting waitlist placements at this time – not online, over the phone, or via email to any staff.

We will bring swim lessons back this fall – we hope to see you then!

We are SO EXCITED to partner with the Helena Lions Swim Team to provide skilled instructors for swim lessons at the Y. There is a reason why the YMCA is referred to as “America’s Favorite Swim Instructor.” In Y Classes, kids not only learn to swim, but also learn about themselves, safety and rescue skills, and water activities they can enjoy for a lifetime.
