Does anyone know any pools with proper training in NYC area?I would like to take it as a sport with training.?

Question

I'm not involved in sports at all and lately i've thought about swimming and find it interesting because as i've noticed there is resistance while one swims. Is it a great total body workout to build the physique? I would like to have the swimmers build and getting involved in this sport with proper training. Also are there other workouts I must involve myself in to get in shape or should it simply be swimming? I have no experience whatsoever and can swim but I would say simply to "survive." As far as I know all of the people I know are very much into basketball, baseball, i'm just looking for something i'm interested in and think this might be it!! Would YMCA offer this or should i look into something else? Any suggestions will help.
