Active & Ageless
You want to create a healthy body and mind, so you can continue to enjoy the life you’ve built. That’s why The Y offers opportunities for older adults to maintain a healthy lifestyle. The fact is that active older adults live longer and have better functional conditioning, than those who don’t.
Our Active & Ageless (A&A) programs are designed for men and women, ages 55 and older, who want a greater sense of wellness and health. We encourage everyone to grow in the areas of physical, emotional, social, and spiritual well-being. Our active adult exercise classes promote fitness and well-being while fostering friendships and camaraderie. Our volunteer opportunities and social events help build lasting relationships and community ties that last a lifetime.
