YMCA helps people find their spark

December 23, 2024 By Special to The Laker/Lutz News

TAMPA – Casey Frachiseur has been a North Brandon Family YMCA member for almost three years. She lost 40 pounds and six pant sizes since this July.

“I started at a size 24 and am down to an 18,” Frachiseur said. “The YMCA has changed my life by helping me get back on track and healthy. I don’t feel judged and every member and staff is always so helpful.”

With Jan. 1 around the corner, the Tampa Metropolitan Area YMCA invites the community to find their spark into the New Year. 

The Tampa Metropolitan Area YMCA is offering a limited-time $0 join fee for new members along with a free InBody Scan when they join. The offer is for new members through Jan. 15.                       

The InBody test is a research-backed analysis that provides a breakdown of body composition, measuring and tracking progress in critical areas such as muscle mass, body fat percentage and metabolic rate.

Jan. 1 also marks the start of summer camp registration for YMCA members. Spots fill up quickly. 

The Tampa Y offers many options to help everyone attain their health and wellness goals along with support through this fitness journey. Members have the option of using wellness floors with a variety of modern equipment for different workouts.

“I am so grateful to the YMCA, without them I would probably still be sitting at home, or in bed not caring about my health,” Frachiseur said. “Having staff that care, I not only don’t want to disappoint myself, but I don’t want to disappoint them. The YMCA gives me purpose, and I am forever grateful.”
