Sunday, we wrapped up our 4-week-long swim lessons!
Sadly, my tye-down swimsuit wasn't cooperating but luckily I had this maternity swimsuit I bought years ago lol
For my final lesson I learned how to backstroke:VERY HARD!, float on my back and paddle my legs back and forth, opened my eyes underwater for the first time (I've had my eyes closed the entire lesson), and made it to the 5ft section of the pool for the first time since I was 18.
It was a full circle moment and kind of like a redemption swim.
When I was 18 I had to be saved by a lifeguard at Six Flags Hurricane Harbor because I panicked and nearly drowned when I slid down the ride and into 5ft deep water.
Not knowing how to swim or how deep the water was, I panicked and went under.
Since then, I only hang around waist-deep water: 4ft and below.
I can say I thoroughly enjoyed learning how to swim, and I'm sad it's over!
Looked into signing up for more lessons lol
My instructor said I improved very quickly from our 3 lessons.
I asked her if this means I can swim now and she laughed ๐ญ
She said I can swim if I can swim in 10 feet deep and back. ๐ญ
I gulped and got my happy butt out of the pool๐๐พโโ๏ธ
Thanks to Jennifer Pewitt/Associate Vice President at YMCA of Metropolitan Dallas for such a life-changing experience for me and the boys ๐๐พโโ๏ธ๐๐พโโ๏ธ๐๐พโโ๏ธ๐๐ฝ๐๐พ
Sadly, my hair was SOAKED!!!! Hairbrella what did I do wrong with this #swimcap
Also, after four lessons we discovered there are showers right there at the pool to get the chemicals off. #betterlatethannever
Soooo great!
Also discovered that there was a swimsuit dryer in the locker room?!?
So handy!!

The sports are always organized and the refs are always professional. The staff does their best to keep everyone safe and having fun.
Loved our experience! My daughter was more confident after taking classes at the Y. Thank you!
Instructors Jami and Kelli
Instructors are great! The kids advanced their skills and looked forward to their lessons. We will definitely be back.
Very satisfactory and laudatory. Mr. JOSHUA SCOTT is the best. From my fear of getting into the pool to diving head down from the deep end without instructor help. Thank you Chilton YMCA at Rockwall and thank you the amazing The Y Rockwall swimming instructors!
Kyara was an awesome instructor my daughter improved greatly the 2 weeks she worked with Kyara.
My kids swimming progress is great. They learned a lot from their swimming lessons. There was a lot of swimming time during their lesson.
The instructor was super patient with my 4 year old daughter. You could tell she really loved her job and working with kids.
Very patient and determined swim teachers. Love them
We just attend water aerobics classes but really enjoy them and the instructors.
Clean and friendly
Friendly clean conveniently located
Love the water aerobics classes
Your employees all seem to be kind and considerate. My husband particularly likes his spinning classes. I frequent the cardio machines and other equipment on the floor.
A lot of class choices, gym equipment and convenient hours for customers. The staff is very friendly and helpful as well!
Family friendly, has everything you need
My son loved Angel camp. The staff were always smiling and welcoming. Coming from California my son doesnโt have friends here and from day one he met several friends and was instantly comfortable. Ms. Shannon went above and beyond to help us. Jace is still talking about how he learned to swim. We are forever grateful for everything everyone did to make Jaceโs experience memorable. We canโt wait for the next opportunity to participate in more events.
Forever grateful,
Jace and Jessica Brown
The small class ratio, the smiles, confidence and courage given to the kids anoint with the sense of belonging.
The instructors and staff and friendly. Love the classes!
The facility is clean, the staff is friendly and helpful and the equipment is well taken care of. I look forward to going there to workout and destress!
I love the YMCA at Rockwall! I particularly enjoy the pool, and Jason and his group of lifeguards are all awesome!
I like the variety of classes and the quantity of offerings.
I enjoy the people that work there and the trainer. We could use more space for the workout room as you grow.
Great class selection
My granddaughter loved Miss Lily and she learned a lot
Great,positive atmosphere. Everyone is helpful and friendly. I like the instructors and get a good work out. Like the low impact classes and aquatics.
I like it a lot, instructors, classes,cleanliness. What I donโt like is that there is no place to park when they have soccer games and had to leave and miss my class.

The program was very organized and the teachers were friendly and helpful to students and families.
I wish the advanced classes could develop stamina by swimming the length of the pool.
