You've got the basics right, now what's next? The Y (formerly YMCA) Squads provides training sessions for swimmers who are wanting the take the next step. Our Squads programme is based on ability and refines basic skills while building on the technical ability and fitness of swimmers in all strokes. Squad members are introduced to racing techniques, time trials and competition.
Our progressions are clearly defined throughout our lesson plans whilst they are structured they also allow for personalisation to each swimmer.
The Y Squads in Auckland also offers great coaching to swimmers who want a pathway into competitive swimming, water polo, surf lifesaving and many more aquatic related activities.

Maximising potential and seeing swimmers progress is important to us. We aim to keep our instructor to student ratios as low as possible to ensure the best learning results.
We understand that schedules can be busy that's why we offer swimming lessons 7 days a week. With a number of different options available we are sure to have a class that suits you

Before you begin lessons with us we offer a free assessment to ensure your child is in the right level for their development. Throughout the programme children are continually assessed and will be moved up once they have achieved the level goals requirements.
No matter what the weather, we have indoor heated pools perfect for swimming all year round. Our purpose built facilities are designed for ease of use with baby change tables and family changing rooms situated readily on poolside
