The Y’s Small Group Training Program empowers you to improve your strength and fitness with specially designed training sessions to meet your needs and challenge you at the right intensity. By working in a small group setting over the course of a multiple-week training session, you’ll benefit from specified training while gaining support from others in your group with similar wellness goals.
Core Recovery
This program focuses on reinforcing the foundational strength, stability, and function of the deep core muscles through education and exercise. This group is designed for women who would like to regain some core function that was lost due to any variety of interruption in exercise: post-partum recovery (whether 6 months or 6 years+), surgery, injury, incontinence, lower back discomfort, working from home, etc. The majority of the exercises are done on the floor/mat, and each week builds on the week before. If you are within 3 months recovered injury/surgery/post-partum, please obtain a doctor’s clearance before signing up.

Walk to 5K is a running plan for absolute beginners. Probably the biggest challenge a new runner faces is not knowing how or where to start. Often when trying to get into exercise, we can overdo it, feel defeated and give up when we’re just getting started. Walk to 5K works because it starts with a mix of running and walking to gradually build up your fitness and stamina with the end goal being able to walk/jog a 5K. Join running coach Nicole, on this 8 week journey to get you prepared for your next 5K and our Gobble Wobble. **If you register for the Gobble Wobble, we will credit your account the price of registration**
