AQUATICS

     YMCA swim lessons introduce and teach
children a variety of skills in a values-based
environment. Children are encouraged to
experience the qualities of water, learn safety
and movement skills, and build confidence.
Based on child-development principles,
the YMCA recognizes that children learn by experimenting, exploring, imitating, playing and having
fun. Our swim instructors practise changing activities throughout the lesson to assist with keeping
children’s attention. A 30-minute or longer lesson promotes and supports this learning principle, and
the YMCAs continuous registration leads to regular participation.
Caregivers are required to bring their children onto the deck and pick them up when they are fin-
ished. For the safety of those on deck and in the pool, caregivers are not permitted on the pool deck
during lessons for any level. We ask that caregivers watch their swimmer(s) from the Viewing Gallery
on the main level.
A soap shower is required to rinse away dirt, oils and personal care products from the skin’s surface
prior to entering the pool (s) and/or whirlpool. (Reg. 565, S.19(2))
   Fitness time is for those who wish to swim continuous lengths for fun and fitness.
   Adult/Teen Refresh in our Leisure Pool is for those who wish to swim or exercise at a more
    relaxed pace.

We are also offering:
PRIVATE SWIMMING LESSONS - 30 minute lessons
for Members $25.00 Non-member $40.00.

   A YMCA Membership entitles each member to one (1) swim lesson per session. Swimmers may not be
    registered in more than one (1) lesson per session.
   If a participant misses three classes in a row without notice, he/she will be removed from the program
    registration and his or her spot will be given to the first person on the waiting list. If your child cannot attend
    the lesson, please contact todd.hocking@ssmymca.ca to advise of their absence.
AQUATICS

Admission Standards for Public Pools were developed by the Office of the Chief Coroner; the Ministry of Health and
Long-Term Care strongly supports these recommendations for the purposes of preventing injuries and fatalities.
The Sault Ste. Marie YMCA standards meet or exceed the recommended standards issued by the Chief Coroner of
Ontario.
  Individuals with serious medical conditions should only use the pool or attend aquatic fitness classes
   accompanied by someone who has knowledge of their condition.
