Strong Teens
Strong Teens gives kids ages 11-16 the fundamentals they need to improve strength, endurance, speed, power, and flexibility. This 6-week program includes a safe introduction to the wellness center and its equipment, introductory healthy living principles and stretching/ recovery techniques. Your teen will leave every sweat session with wellness knowledge along with a fun and energizing workout!

(Children ages 10-12 should be supervised by a parent while in the wellness center if they have not completed Strong Teens.)
