  • Youth & Teen Fitness (Ages 10-14)
    Classes are taught by a Certified Personal Trainer who instructs youth participants on basic strength training practices and cardiovascular exercises along with an in-depth review of safety techniques. Classes take place primarily in the Wellness Center, although the Group Exercise Studio, Gym, and our Outdoor Field may be used to add variety and fun. There will be a fitness assessment provided at the beginning of the session for each participant so they will learn to set goals with the help of their Trainer. At the end of the session the participant and Trainer will reassess their goals. The participant will have a better understanding of the body, how it works and how to keep it healthy!
