Spring is a time for a change, to gain a feeling of empowerment and self-confidence, so why not participate in Girls Day Out or join us for one of the many programs we offer for children and adults!
On May 21, 2022, YWCA Cortland will be hosting the 20th Annual Girls Day Out, a day for girls in grades 4-7 to participate in a full day of activities that work to engage, motivate, and empower them in many aspects of their lives.
The day includes self-defense training and swimming, educational activities based on building self-confidence, an interactive career fair with women from the Cortland community, and more! Registration is now open.

YWCA Cortland’s children’s swimming and gymnastics start as young as six weeks and go to age 16, and the sessions run throughout the summer. The skills taught in these classes will help with your child’s strength, flexibility, and overall well-being. Get them out of the house and into a pool this summer!

Beginning May 31, we are excited to be offering a 4-week pro-active self-defense course for children in grades 5-8 and a separate class for adults ages 16 and up. Students will learn the aspects of personal security and safety but, more importantly, the skills needed to deescalate a dangerous situation before it leads to physical conflict.
