Youth Programming:
Self Defense:
Our Self Defense program gives children the mental and physical skills to succeed in everything they do. These classes are challenging and fun while we encourage every child to strive to do their personal best. In addition to physical skills that will increase strength, coordination and flexibility, we teach life skills such as discipline, goal setting, confidence, leadership and respect. Students learn to see and achieve goals, while building self esteem in a fun, safe and educational atmosphere.
Family Fitness:
We will provide fitness and recreational activities that the entire family can enjoy together. Activities will vary weekly.
Swim Lessons:
Swimming and safety skills are taught in a group setting. Parents do not accompany their swimmer into the pool; however they are welcome and encouraged to stay and observe all classes. Lessons are divided into smaller sub groups according to ability.
