Lift Off Introductory

Age 10-13

Are you looking for a way to help your child develop strength, coordination, and confidence? At the YMCA we offer an Intro to Weightlifting program designed specifically for this age group.

Led by a certified and experienced instructor, this program will teach your child proper lifting techniques, form, and safety while having fun and staying fit. Your child will learn foundational exercises using age-appropriate equipment, such as bodyweight exercises, dumbbells, and resistance bands.

Not only does weightlifting help with physical development, but it also promotes self-esteem, discipline, and teamwork. Our program is perfect for kids who want to try something new, challenge themselves, or prepare for future sports endeavors.
