💪 FRIDAY FEATURE 👍
This month we’ll be spotlighting our Member Coaching team! Our Member Coaches help you get the most out of your membership by helping you identify your fitness goals and a good path toward those goals using your Y membership!! Today we want you to meet Mark and John...
Mark has been part of our Y staff for 4 years and he says his favorite part of his job is, "Seeing folks who are overwhelmed by the size of the YMCA relax and embrace classes , make new friends, and make the Y “home away from home”. His hobbies include cycling, hiking and walking.
John has been with the Y almost 3 years and he says, "I love working at the Y because this is a wonderful group of people - both staff and members! I have had the opportunity to see people come into the Y and I help them get started with a fitness routine. It’s very rewarding to see them take that first step and become more fit, more healthy and more happy! What I usually tell people I meet with at the Y is 'Don’t give me your excuses, give me your results!'” When he's not at the Y, he loves being outdoors no matter what the weather is... he's been known to ride his e-bike to work in the rain, snow, sleet, hail and sunshine! He is married to Karen and he says that is his absolute favorite thing. He loves being near the water and swimming.
If you're new to the Y and haven't already scheduled your Member Coaching appointment, you can do that on our YMCA360 mobile app or by emailing [email protected]
