Registered Programs
Registered programs focus on building skills, confidence and fitness over successive weeks with a YMCA Instructor. Learn and practise all of the elements needed to enjoy and improve your sport or activity by committing to a regular and recurring session. Each time there will be a warm up, some progressive drills and exercises and individual coaching designed to improve proficiency. Some time at the end of each lesson is also set aside to practise and apply learning.
