There’s a full schedule filled with fun at the Y to help keep you healthy, engaged, and active this summer! From early morning yoga, power-packed fitness classes, to an opportunity to travel, the YMCA has something on their list for everyone.

“The first thing that we’re really excited about is we are offering line dancing,” said Healthy Living Director, Sarah Gavin, “we’ve had a lot of requests for line dancing and listen, we heard you, so here comes line dancing!”

Line dancing will take place on Tuesday mornings at 10:15 a.m. and be led by Grace, an instructor who is here from Florida. It is geared for any age and those brand new to dancing will enjoy the steps being broken down easily - plus it’s a good mood booster!

For members who are early risers or even those with busy schedules, there’s a variety of workout classes for you, too. These 30-minute classes are quick and effective and include HIIT, Power Express, and Cycle options. These morning offerings begin as early as 5:15 a.m.

If you’re looking to slow things down a little bit, the YMCA has many yoga classes to do just that. Swasthya Yoga will take place on Tuesday mornings and include a blend of various yogic movements in a relaxed, accessible way for all skill levels. Sunrise Gentle Yoga will also awaken the body, mind, and spirit on Fridays and include gentle transitions while connecting with nature.

Looking to explore? The YMCA is offering a ForeverWell bus trip to Milwaukee on Wednesday, July 16th. The cost is $78 for members and $98 for the general public and includes transportation, admission, a tour ticket, snack and all gratuities. 

“You’ll head down to Milwaukee to tour the Pabst Mansion and then from there head over to the historic Third Ward,” said Patti Jo Wagner, the new Sturgeon Bay Wellness Coordinator, “stop at the front desk at the Y and sign up; it’s fun!”
