Kids Fit Club

This program is designed to familiarize youth 12+ with safe and proper use of designated equipment in our fitness center. Once your child has completed this course and is able to demonstrate safe technique, proper gym etiquette, and is comfortable working out on their own, they will be able to use our cardio equipment in the fitness center without a parent present. Participants will be given a wrist band to indicate they are approved to use the fitness center. Free to members.

To sign up, please complete an orientation form at the front desk or email [email protected] .
