Thanks to the Coaching Connection at the Kraft Y, dozens of members are meeting their wellness goals. Believe it or not, this valuable service is at no additional cost to all members.
The Coaching Connection is designed to connect YMCA members with YMCA Wellness Coaches. Through this process, members can meet their wellness goals, make lasting changes and create relationships with YMCA staff members. Just ask Kearney Bollinger.
"I started dieting in July 2009 because nothing in my closet fit anymore," says Kearney. "At my heaviest, I weighed 221 pounds. Along the way I got support from friends and staff at the Kraft Family YMCA."
"I set a goal to participate in a body building competition in 2010," says Kearney."My weigh in weight was 166 pounds at my first competition. I plan to do two more shows, one in October in Charlotte and one in November in Las Vegas."
Kearney says the Coaching Connection helped put her on the right track.
Here’s how it works. The member schedules a series of coaching sessions over a ten-week period. This allows the member to set realistic goals and apply lifestyle modifications. Believe it or not, this is free to all Kraft members.
