Group fitness is designed to be a supportive environment and allows you to have a shared experience with your fellow members. You should feel the energy in a group class, and it should make you want to move! The YMCA is the perfect place to showcase those feelings to make a positive change in your health and wellness today!

MINDFULNESS BASED STRESS REDUCTION

Mindfulness can be used in a variety of contexts these days. Paying attention to the present moment experience with open curiosity and a willingness to be with what ”is” will be the focus here.

Learn skills that can increase your ability to cope with stress, pain, and the challenges of everyday life. Deal with “stressful” events with grace and composure. Be fully present and alive in the moment!
