Well-being means a healthy spirit, mind, and body. The Kingston Family YMCA’s health and wellness programs stress the value of prevention through recreation, high-quality exercise programs, and good health habits. They encourage active living and personal fulfillment.
Participation promotes a sense of well-being, self-confidence and belonging, along with the benefits associated with exercise, such as a healthy heart, lungs, and bones, and strengthened muscles.
The Kingston Family YMCA understands the importance of looking at health in its broadest sense, and our programs and services aim to provide opportunities to improve quality of life.
Healthy living activities range from health promotion initiatives - such as our Spirit, Mind and Body – Living Well Series - to medical referral programs that use physical activity to improve an individual's health.
