Looking for the flexibility to take a class beyond regularly scheduled group exercise classes at a time that works for your schedule? Powered by Y Wellness 24/7, the Virtual Studio experience is here and included with your YMCA membership!
Virtual Group Exercise kiosks are available at these locations:
- Doylestown, Studio 3
- Fairless Hills, Studio 1
- Quakertown, Studio Y
- Warminster, Studio A
What is happening in the virtual group exercise studios?
YMCA of Bucks and Hunterdon Counties are bringing the convenience and accessibility of Y Wellness 24/7 to many of our branches, offering 100+ live weekly classes and 1000s of on-demand classes led by over 50 nurturing and motivating YMCA instructors from 43 YMCA associations in 8 states.
On-demand classes have been added to the regular group exercise schedules and there will also be times when our members can come into the virtual studios and select a class to do either with friends or on their own with the added convenience of access to Y equipment within a Y branch.
How do I use the equipment?
- Tap the touch screen for the screen to light up.
- If the TV’s are not already on, they should now come on and mirror what is displayed on the screen.
- Simply navigate through Y Wellness 24/7 to select a class being live streamed or from the On Demand library.
- Follow the directions on the screen to begin your class.
- Swipe to the LEFT on the kiosk to go back to the home screen.
- If the TV’s or audio is not working, please ask a Health and Wellness or Membership staff member and they will happily assist you.
What and when can I stream using this equipment?
The Y Wellness 24/7 Virtual Group Exercise studios are available for member use when there is no other programming scheduled in this space.
While we are aware that there are many other online streaming classes available, we respectfully ask that this system is only used for streaming classes from Y Wellness 24/7.
We welcome you to come in and select a class from our Y Wellness 24/7 Virtual platform anytime the studio is available. Please be courteous of someone who may already be using the platform and either join them for the workout in progress or wait until their class is over to put on a new class of your choice.
Please feel free to use any of our group exercise equipment available in the studio, but we ask that you kindly clean and put away all equipment when you are done.
