Swimming is an important life skill, great exercise, and a challenging sport. So whether you’re looking for swim classes, you want to do a few laps, or enjoy a low-impact workout in the shallow-end, you’ll find what you’re looking for at the Y.
With two indoor pools and a large outdoor pool* that’s heated in the winter, YMCA Bethesda Chevy-Chase is a great place to take a dip, swim a lap, or build your swimming skills year-round.
Swimmers under the age of 18 can join our Hammerheads swim team, and older individuals can join our Masters swim team. The Y also offers adaptive swimming opportunities for those with a range of physical and intellectual challenges.
