Swim Instructor

Learning to swim changes lives. It builds confidence in a child who once feared the water, gives an adult the freedom to try something they always thought was out of reach, and equips every swimmer with a skill that can save a life. At the Stoughton YMCA, our swim instructors do more than teach strokes and breathing techniques, they help people discover strength, independence, and a sense of belonging in our community. If you are passionate about water safety, love seeing someone's face light up when they finally float on their own, and want your work to make a difference in your community, come join our team as a Swim Instructor.
