Youth Fitness and Sport Programs 

Do you hope your child will develop an early love of physical activity? Our youth programs are designed to provide a fun approach to fitness and staying physically active! Click on the links below to gain more information about each program. Visit our instructional policies page for further information about youth registration, refund policies, and membership type restrictions.

Our skilled instructors offer private and group Swim Lessons for children as young as 6 months. This is a great way to expose your child to the water as we help them learn to swim.

We are partnering with Skip & Scoot to provide interactive kid's fitness classes at the Ray. Classes are taught by Master's level teachers and provide fun movement games, kid-friendly obstacle courses, sensory experiences, and action songs to promote fitness for your child's brain and body. Register here!
