Teens
As part of the YMCA vision to ensure "all young people truly belong, contribute and thrive" West Bromwich YMCA hosts a number of activities for local young people to get involved in.
Tensing
Ten Sing is a young people led performing arts group that allows young people between the ages of 9 & 25 the opportunity to develop their creative talents and self confidence in a relaxed and informal environment. Ten Sing is a very social activity that includes young people from all social backgrounds with no obligation, no prejudices, just pure fun and friendship.It is run by young people themselves who decide what activities they will do and there are qualified staff on site to supervise.
Our current group of Tensingers recently had the chance to go to the Tensing Festival 2010 in Cambridge. Not only did they attend, but they also were able to perform with and in front of other Tensing groups from across the country.
Cook and Eat
This teaches our young people the importance of healthy eating, and allows them to learn how to cook a variety of nutritious dishes (with the odd fairy cake or two thrown in occasionally for good measure...)
