Group exercise classes are a great way to stay active and motivated. Your tribe is waiting for you!  Reservations are required for group exercise classes and lap swimming. We can’t wait to see you!

Togetherness

Group exercise promotes motivation and inspiration by allowing class members to cheer each other on, coach each other on form and offer that extra push when needed. 

Motivation

Becoming a regular fitness class fosters relationships throughout our community including instructors, allowing everyone to feel comfortable and excited to come to class each day.

Reservations

Sometimes just getting to class is the hardest mental part of your workout, so knowing a spot is reserved just for you provides a sense of accountability.

Online Reservations

Scheduled fitness classes are a great way to stay active and motivated and get to know other members who attend the same YMCA.

Reserving a spot in one of our fitness or water aerobics classes is quick and easy to do! Our schedules are posted online and registration is convenient and secure. You can register for just one or multiple classes at a time up to 72 hours in advance.

If it is still too difficult, please feel comfortable to do as much as you can before leaving the class. You tried and did your best, which is what matters. Also, check our group exercise schedule for a different level for the class. We often offer multiple levels for classes, so you can attend a class that meets your skill level.

Share your skill level and any information he/she may need to know about you so they can provide appropriate options and modifications to keep you safe and provide the best experience possible.
