Active Older Adults (AOA) at the YMCA of Greater Seattle build relationships and create a network of friends who support overall health and well-being. At the Y, we’ve prioritized our older adults' Whole Person Health by providing programs like group fitness classes, walking clubs, and health and nutrition classes. These classes focus on mobility, flexibility, safety, and overall health. Our AOA members also experience a strong sense of belonging and increased self-confidence through an array of fun, safe programs like social events, excursions, and volunteer activities.
