Just learning to swim or just wanting to perfect your strokes, you can benefit from the personal attention of one-on-one lessons of thirty or forty-five minutes duration. Private or semi-private lessons are available for patrons three years of age or older. To register or for additional information contact the Aquatics Department at (845) 358-0245 Ext. 306 or 307 or Contact Us by email. As part of the registration process, you must fill out a Private Lesson Request Form either online (click here) or in person at the front desk of the YMCA. Please inform us of any special needs on the request form. Requests will be processed in the order they are received. Private lessons are heavily subscribed. Please apply well in advance of your desired start date; otherwise you may have to wait until openings occur, especially for lessons on the weekend. Lessons may be purchased singly or in packets of five lessons.
Cancellation of a lesson must be received at least 4 hours prior to the scheduled time otherwise the lesson will be counted as completed.
Providing the second party for a semi-private lesson is the responsibility of the registrant. If the second party fails to arrive for the semi-private lesson, the private lesson fee will be charged.

Party reservations must be made at least two weeks prior to the date of the party. Minimum age of the birthday child must be six years. Payment must be made in full at the time of the reservation in order to reserve a date. Deposits are not accepted. An adult must accompany all non-swimmers in the water. Contact Member Service Desk at (845) 358-0245 for more information.
