Youth Fitness

Home Health & Fitness Youth Fitness

At the YMCA we are always working to find ways to keep the youth in our community healthy and active. Developing healthy habits and learning the importance of physical activity and nutrition at a young age will set your children up to lead healthy lifestyles as they get older! We have great ways for youth to stay active at the YMCA along with opportunities for the whole family!

Speed & Agility

SPEED & AGILITY

Join us for Speed & Agility taught by youth fitness specialist, Caleb Hahne! The goal is to increase speed, quickness, coordination, and flexibility. Multiple drills will be done each session that will focus on accomplishing these goals to maximize sports performance.

“Caleb worked with both of our sons! He did an excellent job of individualizing each of their workouts to what they needed for their respective goals. My oldest became a much better runner. My youngest is much better on his feet. We were so impressed with the camp that we ended up doing extra sessions with him! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!” -Abel Luksan
