ZUMBA
What is it? The Zumba Fitness-Party is a one-of-a kind, Latin-inspired, dance fitness workout set to high-energy Latin and international music. The moves are simple. The routines build in intensity. Key choreography is repeated so you can catch on quickly. Every Zumba class is an original, joyously unrestrained and totally energizing exercise experience. Anyone-young, old, large, small, female, male, fit or not-so-fit-can participate. It’s not a dance class. IT'S A PARTY-ZUMBA STYLE!

Take salsa, cha cha, samba, meringue, add hints of flamenco, calypso, hip-hop and belly dancing, put in a workout routine and you have Zumba! The routines feature interval training sessions where fast and slow rhythms tone your body while burning fat.
So, get ready to “Join the Party!”

GET FAMILIAR WITH YOUR FITNESS CENTER

With one of our two free programs for our members! Learn how to use the cardio or strength equipment or both! Call to make an appointment for a Weight Orientation or our Personal Fitness Program. Both are FREE to our members.

Fitness Equipment Orientation - Instruction of equipment, strength training benefits and etiquette are offered. Guidelines on how to create your own program will be given, as well as how to properly use the equipment. Please inquire at the front desk for an appointment. There is no charge for this service.

A weight orientation takes one visit to complete your introduction to the Paramount and Cardio equipment.

The Personal Fitness Program gradually introduces you to a lifetime fitness program. Over a 12 week period, you will learn to use the equipment with one-on-one consultations.

Finally, don’t forget about personal training and lifestyle assessments to help you get the result you want. Call Vicky Burns for information about any of these options: 660-258-2388.

The goal of the YMCA Youth Sports program is to teach kids more than just winning the game. We strive to teach children about values and teamwork. We work to enhance sports skills, as well as self-esteem. We know a child has succeeded in our program when he or she has had a great time and played to his or her best ability. A long standing tradition in our 150 year old organization is to allow every child the experience of playing an equal amount in each game.

Our policy is that no one under the age of 14 is allowed in the Adult fitness center. We do offer many different youth programs (see this page) to keep them active and involved. Our facility has full court basketball for kids to play basketball any day of the week, including Saturday and Sunday. There are ping pong, billiards, air hockey and arcade games to play also. Monday through Friday from 7:00 pm to 8:00 pm, children under the age of 14 are allowed on the walking track with a parent/guardian, and classes are offered as taught by Certified Instructors. Our programs promote healthy lifestyles, and positive youth development to build a healthy spirit, mind, and body for all. Please check with the YMCA regarding youth Strength Training recommendations.

There are many different membership types available, but if you think the whole family won’t use the YMCA you could sign your child up for a youth membership @ $106 per year or $10.25 per month and receive the YMCA member rates on all programs.

YMCA Sports Pledge: I pledge to play the game the best I can, to be a team player,
to respect my opponent, and to improve myself in spirit, mind, and body.
