Our shoes are made of silver.

What is Silver Sneakers?

Silver Sneakers is a fun, energizing program that helps older adults take greater control of their health by encouraging physical activity and offering social events.

How does my SilverSneakers membership help the Hilliker YMCA?

By using your membership just 10 times a month, The Hilliker YMCA will receive benefits from your Insurance provider to allow us to provide more programs for older adults, increasing the value of your membership.

How do I start using SilverSneakers?

Enrolling is easy. Take your health plan ID card to the Hilliker YMCA – the Welcome Center staff will take care of the rest.

Will someone be available to show me around and assist with the equipment?

Yes. The Hilliker YMCA provides individual or group tours either at enrollment or during the first week you are enrolled. Equipment demonstrations may occur at that time as well, or can be arranged through the Wellness Center Staff.

I’ve never been to the Hilliker YMCA before – what should I expect?

First, expect to have fun! Wear comfortable clothing and rubber-soled shoes. Stop and talk to one of our friendly Welcome center staff. They’ll help you enroll, give you a class schedule and familiarize you with the location and equipment.

What if I already have a membership at a fitness location?

If you currently belong to a SilverSneakers participating location, you can request that your existing membership be “frozen” and witch over to the SilverSneakers membership.

What type of exercise can I do at the location?

If you like to out on your own, we provide access to treadmills, weight equipment, stationary bicycles and all the amenities included in a basic fitness membership. You can also attend exclusive SilverSneakers classes designed specifically for older adults.

These classes vary in intensity and offer multiple formats to fit your personal needs and interests. You are more than welcome to join any of our classes, even if they are not SilverSneakers.
