Y Active Adults
Monthly Activity Club
Age is only a number — especially when you stay active and engaged. Physical and mental fitness, along with social interaction, are key to a healthy and vibrant life for older adults. Staying active and involved can work wonders in every part of your life, no matter how old you are.
Our YMCA Active Adult (YAA) programming brings together active-agers in mind, body and spirit with an all-encompassing approach that promotes physical, mental and social well-being. Whether you’re looking to get moving with regular exercise, meet new people, inject some energy into your social life or get involved in the community, the Y offers an ideal setting to connect, get strong and belong.
Well-Being
Meditation, Sound Healing, + More
Join our various well-being workshops and see how you can realign & refocus.
Our meditation workshops will teach you how to build focus through concentration on the breath and body, enabling you to cope with stress more effectively, unhook from unhelpful thinking and become fully present in life.
Attend sound healing to experience therapeutic frequencies to help balance the body and mind by lowering brain wave to the deeply restorative alpha and theta states.
