ExerZone combines fitness with technology for a fun, fast-paced workout experience. The studio, created in the former racquetball court, offers an alternative for members who want to become more active, as well as a compelling way to engage youth, teens, families, and seniors. In addition to open hours, members can take advantage of several free classes.

Y Executive Director Gregg Howells remarked: “The response to ExerZone in the first week has been great! We have seen members of all ages coming in to try the equipment and the early feedback has been very positive.”

The Y had a busy summer; they also renovated the Spin Studio, creating a fresh and inviting atmosphere with improved sound, fans, lighting, and diamond-plate paneling.
