Youth Fitness and Conditioning (Ages 12-15 Full Member) (Required for 12-13 year olds)

The best way to begin a fitness program is to understand basic fitness principles. Proper exercise form, sequence and duration are important elements that are explained in our newest program by experienced trainers. This program consists of 3 one hour segments and is required at the YMCA for all children ages 12 and 13 who want to use the weight and cardiovascular equipment at the YMCA. Parents are required to attend the first session with their child. Upon completion of this program, youth members ages 12 and 13 will be certified to utilize the cardio room and track area on their own.
