YMCA Youth Sports

YMCA sports are based on the concept that fair play is the very essence of competition.  Everybody should have an equal opportunity to compete and a fair chance to win.  This fundamental virtue is a special inherent attribute of sport.

  Fair play implies respect for oneself, one's opponent and others involved in condeucting the competition.  Players, coaches, officials and spectators share a reponsibility for fair play.  Fair play sets the game above the prize. 

  The YMCA believes that it's sports programs provide an excellent means of developing a predisposition to play fairly.  As this virtue develops, it can influence behavior in every day life.

Karate/Martial Arts

   Our Karate Kid programs offer a unique approach to the martial arts, providing both the disciploine and structure of traditional self defense with fun, physical development and the core character values of the YMCA.

  Martial Arts is offered for both older youth and adults, offering students the opportunity to work on discipline, coordination and flexibility. 

Dance and Gymnastics

Dance can benefit a student by

     Developing good posture, poise and grade.

     Promoting friendships, self esteem and confidence.

     Stimulating creativity and imagination

     Encouraging the appreciation of the performing arts.

Our Gymnastics program is designed for children to have fun while learning gymnastics skills - and lifetime skills such as goal setting, safety, self-discipline and self-confidence.    We also try to instill the YMCA values of caring, honesty, respect and responsibility.
