Here at the YJCC we strive to create and maintain a high energy, educational, successful learn-to-swim program, called the Little Sharks Swim School. This program combines years of experience and knowledge to create the most authentic, fun and exciting program around. Not only will this program teach your child how to swim, but how to be safe in and around the pool. Each class builds on the skills taught and learned in the level before.We offer small class sizes, allowing our trained staff to create unique programs for each class.
