About Our Pool
 The Eastside Family YMCA features a U-shaped pool with a shallow water area starting
at 3 feet deep, four lap lanes, and a diving well with a maximum depth of 10 feet.
We offer a variety of programs and activities such as free or open swim times,
adult only swim times, swimming lessons for all ages and abilities, and water
fitness programs ranging from beginners to advanced. We also have a steam room,
sauna, and whirlpool located just off the pool deck. Certified lifeguards are
on duty at all times the pool is open. Check out a pool schedule to find out
which times are best for you and your family to come join and swim with us.
Important Information
Water Fitness
Aquatic Boot Camp
NEW! Kick-start your New Year’s Resolutions with this rigorous workout for the
serious water fitness participant! This high-cardio class will get your heart
pumping by combining a variety of shallow and deep water workouts both with and
without water fitness equipment. Non-Swimmers are welcome, but participants should
be very comfortable in deep water, and should not be afraid to get their hair
or face wet. It is recommended that you try out a Regular or Deep Water Aerobics
class before participating in the Boot Camp Class. Classes will be held on Tuesdays
from 9:15 AM - 10:00 AM.
Whether you are looking to branch out of your regular exercise routine, or have
never exercised before, we have a class to fit your needs. Water Fitness encourages
people to use the buoyant qualities of water to enhance their physical fitness
through exercises in the pool. Water can make some movements possible that would
be very difficult on land. It is an ideal form of exercise for all fitness levels
and increases physical strength and endurance without putting stress and strain
on joints, as in land based exercise. Swimmers and nonswimmers alike can take
part in this type of exercise to reduce emotional stress and tension, improve
health and physical appearance, and encourage and improve feelings of well being
and self-esteem.
Classes offered: Arthritis, Senior Aerobics, Aqua Toning, Shallow Water, and
Deep Water. Please see the current Water Fitness class schedule for class details,
days and times.
Swim Lessons
 It is never to early or late to start swim lessons. The Eastside Family YMCA
offers swim lessons for children and adults of all ages and abilities, from the
timid beginner to the advanced level swimmer. In this program the YMCA teaches
not only basic swimming skills, but also skills that will allow participants to
enjoy a variety of aquatic activities throughout their lives. We teach the basic
fundamentals of swimming, stroke refinement, personal safety, survival and rescue,
as well as water sports and games. Our ultimate goal is not only teaching you
and your child how to swim, but to build confidence in everyone's swimming abilities
and to develop the whole person - spirit, mind and body. It's what make us different
from any other exercise facility.
From Ages 6 months - 100 years. Beginner to the advanced triathlete.
