    Work one-on-one with a certified personal trainer who will help you establish goals, develop and follow a thoughtfully designed exercise plan, and provide encouragement, motivation, and accountability.

  • Partner Training

    Our partner training option allows two clients to work with a trainer during the same session. The cost is reduced per person, but fee is paid altogether from one source of payment. The payment cannot be broken up between both clients. In this case, one person would pay for the session, and the other person could pay their training partner directly for their portion.

  • Small Group Training

    In addition to traditional Personal Training and Partner Training, the Y also offers Small Group Training. We know that sticking to an exercise program is easier with friends, so we encourage groups of three to five to train together.

    Note: Small Group Training is only available at select locations and availability is limited.

Frequently Asked Questions

FAQ

Am I locked into any contracts if I set up a monthly draft for personal training?

Am I locked into any contracts if I set up a monthly draft for personal training?

No, we don’t require you to sign a contract. We offer month-to-month personal training, with an option to draft your account on the first of each month. You will have monthly drafts until you decide to discontinue, which will require a five-day advance notification before your draft date to avoid future drafts.

Can I change my draft option if I decide to increase/decrease the amount of sessions per month?

Can I change my draft option if I decide to increase/decrease the amount of sessions per month?

Yes, you may change your draft for the following month to reflect the amount of training sessions you wish to purchase. A five-day advance notification is required to ensure draft is adjusted before your draft date.

What if I want to use additional sessions in any given month?

What if I want to use additional sessions in any given month? (Example: You sign up for four sessions per month, but you request six for the month.)

Example: You sign up for four sessions per month, but you request six for the month.

You will simply purchase additional individual sessions separately, and you will be given the same rate per session as the draft choice you’ve registered.

You are not able to use a future month’s sessions to add on to a current month. Future sessions are not available until that month occurs.

Is there an option for two people to work with a single trainer at the same time?

Is there an option for two people to work with a single trainer at the same time?

Yes, we offer partner training that allows two clients to work with a trainer during the same session. The cost is reduced per person, but fee is paid altogether from one source of payment. The payment cannot be broken up between both clients. In this case, one person would pay for the session, and the other person could pay their training partner directly for their portion.

What happens if I don’t use all the training sessions that I paid for with my draft?

What happens if I don’t use all the training sessions that I paid for with my draft?

Clients will be able to carry over a maximum of two sessions into the following month if they are not used. No month shall have more than two sessions in addition to the amount of sessions paid for in their draft.

Example: If you paid for four sessions in January, but used only two, then two can be carried into February, which means February would have six total sessions (four being paid, two being carried over). In February, if two sessions are used again, still only two sessions can be carried over to March, so March would still only have six sessions (four paid plus two carried over).

What is the cancellation policy for sessions?

What is the cancellation policy for sessions?

Clients shall directly notify their trainer in writing (email/text) with a minimum of 24 hours notice of their scheduled session for any cancellations. Under 24 hours notice (or no-shows) will result in a used session.
