There are 4 classes offered at the YMCA and depending age group. At 16 months old Petit was in the kipper class. He was one of the younger kids in the class and his instructor took special care to get them on track so that Petit doesn’t fall behind. The program runs for 6 weeks with 2 classes a week.
