🚴‍♀️ MEET AN INSTRUCTOR & FIND YOUR RIDE AT THE Y! 🚴‍♂️

We’re excited to introduce you to Cheryl T., one of our newest Cycling instructors! Cheryl brings a lifelong love of fitness, a passion for helping others, and plenty of enthusiasm to the cycling studio.

👉 A little about Cheryl…

Fitness has been part of Cheryl’s life since childhood, from playing softball and shooting baskets with her dad to swimming, biking, and running. As an adult, she continued pursuing that passion through marathons, triathlons, and bike races. For Cheryl, fitness has always been an outlet! 🏊 🚴‍♀️ 👟

Her first group exercise class was a little different from your typical gym workout. While serving as an active-duty Navy officer stationed in Japan, she discovered a class called Dr. Doom Marine Corps Calisthenics. Picture an hour of a Marine Corps instructor calling out workouts! Cheryl says it was really hard, but fun—and she was hooked! 💪🏻

After years of coaching people preparing for running and triathlon events, Cheryl recently took the next step in her fitness journey by earning certifications in personal training, health and wellness, nutrition, and cycling. She’s excited to share her knowledge and motivation with others. 🤩

👍 What can you expect in Cheryl’s cycling class?
High-energy rides featuring a mix of intervals and strength work, with the goal of creating a fun, positive workout experience. 💥

We hope to see you soon at Cheryl's Wednesday evening class at 5:30pm!

For you early risers, we now offer early am classes MONDAY-FRIDAY! 🌅

Across our six branches, an average of more than 4,000 people walk through our doors each day. That’s thousands of people using our fitness centers, pools, locker rooms, childcare spaces and more, all of which are kept clean, safe and welcoming thanks to the hard work of our custodial staff.

Our custodians are often among the first to arrive, working behind the scenes before our doors open and throughout busy days filled with members, families, programs and activities.

Today, on National Custodial Appreciation Day, we’re recognizing and thanking all of our custodial team members across the Saratoga Regional YMCA for the care and dedication they bring to our Ys each day.

Thank you for all you do! ❤️

Meet Sara, our Development Coordinator! 👋

Sara joined our Association Services team in April and has been a wonderful addition. She works behind the scenes to strengthen our mission through fundraising, donor relationships, community partnerships, special events, and more, all with the goal of helping ensure financial circumstances never stand in the way of someone experiencing the Y.

Since joining the team, Sara has especially loved the people and sense of community. From seeing members connect and kids enjoy summer camp to working alongside dedicated staff and volunteers, she loves experiencing the impact of the Y firsthand each day.

Outside of work, you can find Sara line dancing... something she’s been doing for 11 years! Or enjoying a walk, picnic, or good book at Saratoga Spa State Park. 🌳📚

We’re so happy to have you on our team, Sara! 🙌❤️
