Wellness Coaching
Wellness coaching is a YMCA exercise support process designed to teach new and returning exercisers how to start and stick to their exercise program. At no additional cost, the YMCA will pair you with your own Wellness Coach to provide you with behavior modification strategies to keep you motivated. Whatever your workout worries or goals, your Wellness Coach will help you develop the mindset to go the distance and make those lasting changes. You can register for this program at the YMCA front desk or see Sheila in the Wellness Department.  Designed for ages 18 and up.
