Help Your Teen Build Lifelong Healthy Habits with the Park District’s Fit Teen Program!
Looking for a positive, structured way to keep your teen active and healthy? The Fit Teen Program is designed specifically for teens ages 14 – 17, giving them the tools they need to develop strong fitness habits that will last a lifetime.
Why Choose the Fit Teen Program?
Your teen will:
• Learn how to use cardio machines, strength equipment and free weights safely and effectively
• Gain confidence in the gym with guidance from a Certified Personal Trainer
• Understand proper form, spotting techniques and Fitness Center etiquette to ensure a safe workout environment
Mandatory Fit Teen Orientation
Before becoming a member, your teen will attend a required orientation (up to 1 hour), led by a Certified Personal Trainer. During this session, they’ll receive hands-on instruction covering: • Proper equipment use and safety protocols
• Correct exercise form to prevent injury
• Spotting techniques and gym etiquette
At the end of orientation, your teen will sign an Orientation Checklist and Code of Conduct to confirm their understanding of our Fitness Center rules. (Violations of the Code of Conduct may result in consequences, including suspension or membership revocation.)
What You’ll Need to Get Started:
• A signed parent/guardian waiver
• $35/$40 payment due before orientation
• Review the Orientation Packet (available in the Downloads box here: tinyurl.com/bpd-fit-teen), which includes teen membership pricing and Fitness Center policies
Parents are welcome to attend the orientation but are not required to stay.
