Complete your Wellness Center Orientation with a Y staff member and enjoy some free time in the gym! During the course of the program, participants will learn fitness etiquette, rules of the Wellness Center and YMCA, how to properly use cardio and resistance training machines, complete different workouts, and have some free time to play in the gym! During the program, the parent has the opportunity to also meet with a Y Wellness staff member to gain an understanding of the rules and expectations for their children using the Wellness Center.

Upon completion of the program and both the participant and parent signing the agreement, the participant will have completed their Wellness Center Orientation and will have access to using the YMCA Wellness Center!
