NEW Group Exercise Fitness Pathways!

We’re excited to introduce a new way to explore group exercise at The Granite YMCA! We know that choosing a group exercise class can sometimes feel overwhelming, especially for someone new to the Y. Introducing our four Fitness Pathways—a simpler way to find the right classes for your goals, at any stage of health and fitness journey.

🏃 MOVE: Build a strong foundation with classes that help you improve mobility, cardio health and overall well-being.
💪 BUILD: Focus on strength, endurance and functional fitness to support everyday life and keep you doing what you love.
🏆 PERFORM: Challenge yourself with higher-intensity classes to improve endurance, power and athletic performance.
🧘 RESTORE: Improve flexibility, balance and recovery with classes that reduce stress and support whole-person health.

During the month of November, we invite members to “tour the four” new pathways and find that balance. The challenge is to complete the fitness pathway passport by trying at least one class from each category throughout the month. Participants who turn in a completed passport to the Wellness Center by Monday, November 30 will be entered to win a prize
basket! One winner per branch will be chosen on Tuesday, December 1.

Find your pathway. Try something new. Move toward a healthier, stronger you! Explore our group exercise classes: https://ow.ly/rG8C5102x11
