We’re Having a Flip Fest!

It feels so good to give.

Gymnasts of all ages and abilities are learning the value of philanthropy. Our annual Flip Fest is back the week of April 29. Haven’t heard of Flip Fest? Well, please get involved! All the details on this fundraiser are provided below.

Because our Gymnastics teachers believe all kids should have the opportunity to grow and learn at the Y — regardless of ability to pay — they engage the boundless energy and huge hearts of our kids in the Reach Out for Youth & Families Campaign. During the week of April 29, 2018, all our branches will be participating in Flip Fest. Note, you do not have to be enrolled in gymnastics to join the campaign and to earn some really neat prizes.

Here’s a powerful testimonial that may inspire your participation…. “The Hockomock YMCA has been a blessing to us. If it were not for all the donations we would not be able to send our children there. Even a small amount can make a difference. Please consider making a donation and spreading the word, as you too can help other children and families like us.” – A Grateful Family

7th Annual Flip Fest — QUICK FACTS & HOW TO GET INVOLVED

Ask others to support your efforts to enrich someone’s life right here in our community.
Knowing that the generosity of others is at the core of the Y’s existence as a nonprofit. It is only through the support of volunteers and donors that we are able to support and give back to those most in need.
100% of contributions raised will go to our Reach Out for Youth and Families 2018 Campaign.
You will be able to raise money based on the number of flips (or cartwheels, forward rolls, walkovers, etc.*) you do during our celebratory Flip Fest Days (week of 4/29) or you may ask for a flat donation of any dollar amount.
Once your pledge form is complete, come to the Y during class time April 29-May 6 for counting!
Non-participants in gymnastics classes may schedule their private flip count with a staff member. Please email: jonathanlerch@hockymca.org (Foxboro), amytr@hockymca.org (Franklin), or debbiemo@hockymca.org (North Attleboro).

New YMCA Swim Lessons Curriculum

This winter, our YMCA is updating our swim lesson program, so expect to see a great new look and simpler class names. The latest evolution of Y Swim Lessons accommodates varying abilities and will foster a sense of achievement as swimmers progress between levels. Through this approach, advanced swimmers flow more easily to higher levels while swimmers who need more instruction can learn at their own pace. This results in more confident swimmers who stick with lessons and develop a love for swimming that can last a lifetime.

Our Youth Program Guide explains everything and provides a schedule for all the new classes, but here’s a quick overview. In our updated curriculum, there are three general categories of Y Swim Lessons:

SWIM STARTERS: Baby & Toddler Lessons with Parent
Accompanied by a parent, infants and toddlers learn to be comfortable in the water and develop swim readiness skills. Parents are coached to guide their child toward greater water independence while learning about the importance of supervision.
Swim Starters classes are Stages A, B, C.

SWIM BASICS: Fundamentals of Swimming
Students develop basic swimming competency and learn personal water safety. They begin by developing comfort in the water, then work on proper body position and control. While developing fundamental techniques, swimmers increase stamina for longer distance swimming.
Swim Basics classes are Stages 1, 2, 3.

SWIM STROKES: Refining Stroke Technique
Having mastered the fundamentals, swimmers build on stroke technique, including all major competitive strokes. The emphasis on water safety continues, and swimmers learn about competitive swimming and how to incorporate exercise swimming into a healthy lifestyle.
Swim Strokes classes are Stages 4, 5, 6.

Each Swim Lessons category has three stages or levels that are designed for swimmers of every age and ability.

SWIM STARTERS BABY & TODDLER LESSONS WITH PARENT

Parent/Child
6 Months – 3 Years

Accompanied by a parent, infants and toddlers learn to be comfortable in the water and develop swim readiness skills. Parents are coached to guide their child toward greater water independence while learning about the importance of supervision.

A / WATER DISCOVERY

Parents accompany children in stage A, which introduces infants and toddlers to the aquatic environment through exploration and encourages them to enjoy themselves while learning about the water.

B / WATER EXPLORATION

In stage B, parents work with their children to explore body positions, floating, blowing bubbles, and fundamental safety and aquatic skills.

C / WATER INDEPENDENCE

Parents work with their children to develop comfort in underwater exploration by learning self rescue techniques. This class is geared for children not ready to be independent from parents.

SWIM BASICS FUNDAMENTALS OF SWIMMING

Everyone
Ages 3 and up

Students develop basic swimming competency and learn personal water safety. They begin by developing comfort in the water, then work on proper body position and control. While developing fundamental techniques, swimmers increase stamina for longer distance swimming.

1 / WATER ACCLIMATION

Students develop comfort with underwater exploration and learn to safely exit in the event of falling into a body of water. This stage lays the foundation for a student’s future progress in swimming.

2 / WATER MOVEMENT

In stage 2, students focus on body position and control, directional change, and forward movement in the water while also continuing to practice how to safely exit in the event of falling into a body of water.

3 / WATER STAMINA

In stage 3, students learn how to swim to safety from a longer distance than in previous stages in the event of falling into a body of water. This stage also introduces rhythmic breathing and integrated arm and leg action.

SWIM STROKES REFINING STROKE TECHNIQUE

Everyone
Ages 5 and up

Having mastered the fundamentals, swimmers build on stroke technique, including all major competitive strokes. The emphasis on water safety continues, and swimmers learn about competitive swimming and how to incorporate exercise swimming into a healthy lifestyle.

4 / STROKE INTRODUCTION

Students in stage 4 develop stroke technique in front crawl and back crawl and learn the breaststroke kick and butterfly kick. Water safety is reinforced through treading water and elementary backstroke.

5 / STROKE DEVELOPMENT

Students in stage 5 work on stroke technique and learn all major competitive strokes. The emphasis on water safety continues through treading water and sidestroke.

6 / STROKE MECHANICS

In stage 6, students refine stroke technique on all major competitive strokes, learn about competitive swimming, and discover how to incorporate swimming into a healthy lifestyle.

In the coming days, we’ll provide some helpful resources to make sure everyone in your family will know how to choose the right Swim Lesson class, and if you have any questions please stop in at your local YMCA or give us a call.

New program partnership with North Attleboro Public Schools

The North Attleboro Public Schools and the Hockomock Area YMCA are collaborating to offer all elementary school students attending North Attleboro public schools the opportunity to enroll in after school STEM and wellness classes through a program initiative called E.A.S.E.

“We are proud of our long standing partnership with the North Attleboro Public Schools and appreciate Superintendent Holcomb’s vision to expand STEM and wellness offerings to all of his students in the district. We look forward to supporting our community and the students of North Attleboro through the delivery of programs that focus on youth development and healthy living.” said Dan Brennock, North Attleboro Branch Director of the Hockomock Area YMCA.

Registration for the Winter E.A.S.E. Program will run Feb 1-28, 2018. The classes will run March 5 – April 13. Please return payment and registration forms to the Hockomock Area YMCA by February 28, 2018. We are located at 300 Elmwood Street, North Attleboro.
