GCY Makos Swim Team

Greensboro Community YMCA Makos is a competitive swim team for swimmers ages 5-18 and a Masters program for adults. GCY is founded on the belief that a child's involvement in competitive swimming offers an exciting opportunity and an invaluable experience in his or her life; one that will help shape athletes as both competitors and individuals. Our mission is to offer a multi-level competitive program that stresses both individual improvement and team achievement while teaching its swimmers to train and compete according to the YMCA core values. As a member of GCY, a swimmer will have the opportunity to develop a work ethic and healthy sense of competition that together can provide the backbone for success in the pool, the classroom, and beyond!

YMCA Water Fitness & Swim Lessons

Water Aerobics

Did you know that a 30 minute walk in the water is equivalent to a two hour walk on land? Water resistance offers an excellent opportunity for muscle toning and body sculpting. Water also cools the body during exercise which reduces stress on the heart and reduces the risk of injury by lessening the impact on weight-bearing joints, muscles, and bones.

With three types of water fitness classes being offered, there is something for everyone. We have a deep-water classes, shallow-water classes, an arthritis class and a combination class.  Each class is designed to give your body a work out while taking away the stress that comes with land-based exercise. These classes combine water - resistance exercise with aerobic activity for a total body workout.
