Strength Training for Women 
Build strength. Build confidence. Led by a certified female personal trainer, this class helps women increase strength and develop proper form for foundational exercises like deadlifts, chest presses, squats, and lunges using dumbbells and resistance bands—all in a supportive small group setting. 

During your one-hour nutrition consultation, you will meet with our Registered Dietitian Nutritionist.  Together, you will identify wellness goals and map out concrete strategies to achieve these goals through dietary change.  The session will include an assessment of current dietary habits, goal setting, meal planning assistance, and individually tailored recommendations.  

Confidence. Safety. Strength. In this small group class held in the YMCA fitness center, youth ages 10–13 will learn the basics of strength training in a safe and supportive environment. Led by a Certified Personal Trainer, participants will explore proper warm-up routines, safe lifting techniques, breathing, and body alignment. This program helps build confidence, coordination, and healthy habits that can last a lifetime. 

Move better. Feel stronger. Live fully. Improve your endurance, strength, mobility, and balance with guidance from a Certified Personal Trainer. In this small group class, you'll learn proper technique and how to use functional training equipment like kettlebells, TRX, the sled, and more. 

Kettlebell Foundations 
Learn the basics. Build strength the right way. This small group class is designed to teach proper form and technique for essential kettlebell movements like swings, squats, presses, and more.
