Aquatics

Swimming is a vital skill that makes life safer and more fun. Every child should learn how to swim for safety, fitness and a positive self-image. Lessons are developmentally appropriate and designed to teach skills effectively with safety as the top priority. Over the years, at the Madison Area YMCA, we have taught thousands of children, teens and adults to swim, which has helped to minimize the risk of drowning in our community. Classes include Parent/Child through Adult swimming instruction.

Ready to make a splash with our outdoor aquatics offerings? Our team has been hard at work developing plans for our members at our partner outdoor pools (Florham Park Municipal Pool and Chatham Fish & Game Club).
 
Read below for exciting updates regarding outdoor Lap Swim, Private Adult and Youth Swim Lessons, Masters Adult Swim Clinics, Aqua Zumba group exercise classes and Mariners Competitive Swim Team. For everyone's safety, a lifeguard and health and safety officer will both be on duty throughout all of our aquatics offerings. See you at the pool!

For more information on our current aquatics offerings, please contact Competitive Aquatics Director  Jon Siegel by email or at 973-822-9622 x2228.

Outdoor Aqua Zumba

Aqua Zumba® blends the Zumba® philosophy with water resistance, for one pool party you shouldn't miss! There is less impact on your joints during an Aqua Zumba class so you can really let loose. Water creates natural resistance, which means every step is more challenging and helps tone your muscles. Our classes are held at the Florham Park Municipal pool.
