EMPOWER FITNESS is an adapted fitness program designed for older teenagers (high school age) and young adults with unique challenges requiring the supervision and assistance of trained staff and volunteers. The overall goal is to improve health, strength, cardiovascular fitness, flexibility, and stress reduction. Participants can expect to engage in various cardiovascular fitness activities including stationary bikes, walking and/or jogging on the track, zumba, boxing, or other adapted YMCA cardio fitness classes. Strength training will utilize weight machines, free weights, and body weight exercises. Stretching, yoga, and mindfulness practices centered around the YMCA's monthly Christian principles will help improve overall flexibility and provide a calming and relaxing experience.

Our coed flag football league teaches the fundamentals of the game in a fun, non-competitive environment. Players enjoy equal playing time, teamwork, and the Y’s signature focus on character values. Volunteer Coaches get to decide when their Hour long practice will be Monday-Thursday. Games are Saturdays between 9am-12pm.
