Wellness Center
The Youth Conditioning Course was created as a benefit of membership to help children learn and understand the benefits of exercise and how to properly use the exercise equipment at our Y. Youth ages 8-14 will attend one class and pass a short quiz to use the facility. Youth ages 8-11 may use the Wellness Center and strength equipment with a parent after completing the class. A parent must be present at the Youth Conditioning class. If the child has taken the class and is 12-14 they may use the Wellness Center and strength equipment without a parent after meeting with a Wellness Center staff member to ensure that the child remembers proper form on the equipment. If the child is taking the class for the first time and is 12-14 they must take the class and pass the quiz. Please pre-register for classes at the Wellness Desk. All youth under the age of 15 will need to have proper Youth Conditioning Certification Card on a lanyard at all times while in the Wellness Center. Participants that are 15 years old or older can have access to the weights in the free weight area in addition to using the Wellness Center.
