Powered by GoogleI look forward to my Tuesday and Thursday Senior Fit classes with Tamika Scott, Personal Trainer at Effingham Street. Great personality, encourages you and modifies exercises. I am feeling much better!!
Excellent program for Senior health with the great management of Deb and the exceptional teaching from Ella and Tameika. The atmosphere was friendly and positive and I experienced great gains in my strength, balance and cardio health with the Effingham team’s guidance. I wish Silver Sneakers was available there, though!
I enjoy the structure of the fitness class. Instructor encourages each participant to TRY and supports our efforts. Each session is different. I feel as if I have improved my strength and balance. The tempo of music and selection of music inspires me to keep up. Almost 80 years old, I am so thankful for this Sentara Fitness and Balance program at Effingham Y for Seniors. I am UP and moving in physical activities even more since coming.
This is my home gym and it's just such a great community. I do love many different YMCA's but this is like family, like a home gym. Deborah is a great fitness instructor, friendly, and a great motivator to achieve the goals you want to reach. If you looking for a gym for your fitness goals, this is the fitness for you.
I can say I am thankful for the YMCA I was afraid for my kiddo to start the Y.The building is a great size .the first time experience has been great , the YMCA Program really focuses on the youth .Not only that the staff treats me and my kiddo like family. My child has Opened up more , she is not as shy and she is building friendships. Thank you to the awesome staff and thank you for providing great and constant child care for me and my kiddo 💓
