Breathe Well is designed specifically for people with mild COPD and other respiratory conditions to exercise in a safe environment with staff supervision. This program is included with a YMCA membership; no extra cost associated.
NOTE: People with moderate to severe COPD should attend the Kelowna General Hospital’s respiratory rehab prior to enrolling in this program.

Healthy Hearts
This program is ideal for anyone who wants to prevent or recover from a cardiac event. Regular monitoring of blood pressure, group stretching, and individualized exercise programming will help you maintain and improve your overall health. Members can feel safe and supported while exercising under the supervision of our qualified staff. This program is included with a YMCA membership; no extra cost associated.

Healthy Hips & Knees
This program is designed specifically for people who are awaiting total hip or knee replacement surgery, or those who have recently had surgery. Individuals who exercise to prepare for surgery have better hospital experiences, fewer complications, and a smoother recovery. Maintaining adequate physical activity post-surgery will also increase the life of your joint replacement. Your individualized program will focus on increasing strength, endurance, flexibility and balance with regular progress assessments. This program is included with a YMCA membership; no extra cost associated.
