Youth Tumbling
The YMCA is starting a youth tumbling program for children up to 6 years old.  The program has three different classes:

  • Toddler Class (walking through 2 years old): Parents participate in this 45-minute class designed with the busy toddler in mind.  Improvements in motor skills, hand-eye coordination, and social skills will al be improved using a variety of activities.
  • Age Group Classes (3 & 4 year olds and 4 & 5 year olds): All age groups are taught progressive skills by a qualified instructor in a safe and positive learning environment.  Each student's progress is monitored and rewarded.
  • Hot Shots (ages 4-6): This program is offered for the more advanced children who are ready to progress to higher level tumbling.  The instructor will observe the skill level of all new participants to determine readiness for the Hot Shots program.

Leaders’ Club
Leaders’ Club is a program for teens ages 13-18 that demonstrate outstanding leadership skills. The club is designed to recognize those outstanding teens in the community and help teach them skills that the YMCA believes are the most important components of leadership. These components are human relation skills, volunteerism, Judeo-Christian values, and fitness of the whole individual (physical, mental, and spiritual wellness).
