Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic & Time Oriented Goals
During this goal setting consultation a wellness professional will work with you to understand your unique needs and how to overcome obstacles. Together we will discuss ways to help you get started and how to measure success. Not only will S.M.A.R.T. Start help you to get acquainted with our staff and offerings at our YMCA, but it is an excellent opportunity to get your health & wellness questions answered. Register at the Member Service Desk and a S.M.A.R.T. Start coach will call to schedule your appointment.

Free to Full Members
