2026 Swim Lessons

Learn to Swim – Powered by the American Red Cross

At Adirondack Health Medical Fitness Center, our mission is to provide essential water safety education and teach children how to swim confidently and safely. Living in a community surrounded by water, we believe it is vital that every child has the opportunity to learn life-saving swimming skills.

Our swim program follows the trusted American Red Cross Learn-to-Swim curriculum, designed to help children develop water confidence, swimming ability, and safety awareness at every stage. Whether your child is just beginning their water journey or refining advanced strokes, we have a class to support their growth.

This year, we've combined levels and extended age groups to make our classes more accessible and flexible for families.
