aquatics SWIM LESSONS Connect with Ashley Coticchio, x1409 or acoticchio@cbfymca.org. Our goal is to serve the community as a resource in aquatic education and water safety through student-centered swim instruction. Children learn and practice new swim skills that last a lifetime. Our swimmers become more comfortable and secure around water as we emphasize water safety. Swim evaluations during week one ensure proper level.
