MADISON — The Madison Area YMCA is here to support you in achieving your health and wellness goals this fall and keeping your family moving and active! At the Y, there’s something for everyone.
They are excited to expand our indoor health and wellness offerings, days, and hours to accommodate more members starting Tuesday, September 8! Health and Wellness Director Christian Esola shares, “With their new two-hour blocks, members can establish their health and wellness routine on their own schedule Monday through Friday 6:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m.” Christian also shares that, “Expanded weekend hours begin on September 12: Saturday and Sunday from 7:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. With cardio fitness equipment spaced six feet apart, members will have access to free weights, strength training machines, and more at the Madison Area YMCA’s Family Center!”
