The JCC's Teen Fit program is an educational series of fitness sessions designed to show 12–15 year olds how to safely and properly use the equipment in the fitness center. Sessions will focus on the following topics:
Upon completion of the program, the teen will receive a Teen Fit card. Until the teen turns 16, this card must be visibly worn at all times while in the fitness center. Once a teen has completed Teen Fit, they may also attend Group Exercise classes when accompanied by a parent or guardian.
The program consists of two, one-hour sessions carried out by a member of the JCC fitness staff. Sessions may be scheduled weekday afternoons, evenings, or on the weekend, based upon the participant's schedule. These sessions will get the teen familiar with a particular set of exercises to work the main muscle groups of the body. The second session concludes with an assessment of the teen’s knowledge of the proper use of the equipment, as well as the simple fitness physiology taught during the sessions.
Price: $125 for series
