Time Out New York found New York City’s seven best trainers, and the 92nd Street Y’s very own David Simmons was anointed as one of the best. Holding a 6th Degree Black Belt in Karate who has been a Karate Instructor for over 20 years, David is a Fitness Coordinator for the 92Y May Center for Health Sports and Fitness. He teaches classes and private clients, and tells TONY:
“I do functional training with my clients: developing core strength and stability, having people use their own body to emulate what they do in real life—climbing stairs, playing with their children, putting groceries away—and making those things easier. We set little goals so you can get a sense of accomplishment.” TONY also noted some classes available at the 92Y May Center, highlighting our Pilates Mat / Ballet Barre class led by a professional ballerina, and the Yoga Pump class: “...where strength training using hand and ankle weights and body bars is bookended by the traditional stretching, breathing and body positioning.”
On Jan 12, 92Y May Center is holding an open house, which is a prefect opportunity to come see our facilities, meet our staff, and try us out. We will have drop-in classes, fitness demos, prizes and more, including our biggest membership discount of the year. You can view the full schedule of events here (PDF).
