YOUTH FITNESS
YOUTH 12-14
Youth ages 12—14 may use the wellness areas once they receive a Youth Fitness Button. This allows them to use
the strength equipment, cardiovascular machines and attend adult classes. Please make an appointment at the
front desk to complete the youth fitness training. Supervision of a parent/guardian is required while the youth is
exercising.
YOUTH 15 AND UP
Youth ages 15 years of age may use the equipment in the fitness center and attend adult classes without a
parent/guardian.
Why the age policy is implemented:
The Y believes that the path of health and wellness starts at a young age. Youth should have access to programs that stress
the importance of healthy living and equipment to incorporate exercise into their daily lives. Learning health habits at a young
age can help prevent childhood obesity, heart disease, diabetes and other illnesses. We want families to be able to have more
options to be together, have fun together and stay healthy together at the Y. However, it is important the youth have access
to these programs and equipment in a controlled, supervised environment that is fair to both youth and adult members.
