Health & Fitness

YMCA Health & Fitness programmes are developmentally appropriate and help people at any stage of life build positive health habits.  Participation in YMCA programmes offers youth and adults opportunities for friendship and community, a sense of health and wellbeing, increased self confidence and improved mental abilities.

Check out our Arthritis classes, Never 2 Old, Spinning, and Heart Foundation classes for older adults.
