YMCA of Pueblo

Aquatics

swim lessons
Along with YMCAs around the country, the YMCA of Pueblo has been teaching people to swim for more than a century. YMCA aquatics programs help children learn to be safe around water, develop lifelong skills, and feel the sense of accomplishment that comes with learning something new. In our youth progressive swimming program, certified instructors use a problem-solving, guided-discovery teaching approach in a positive, caring environment. See detailed brochure (under downloads) for specific dates, times and fees.
