Health & Wellness Classes
Included in your membership are many group exercise classes - classes perfect for the beginning exerciser or for the fitness enthusiast.  Our YMCAs offer traditional aerobics, step classes, yoga, and more.  You'll find cycling classes and pilates in some of our locations too!  Whatever your fitness level or experience, our classes will give you a great workout in a fun, welcoming atmosphere.

Gymnasiums
Whether you are a serious player or just play for fun with your family, the YMCA makes time for you in our gyms with open and recreational time for kids, adults and families.  Some locations offer sports leagues in addition.

Pools
Water provides a great avenue for exercise and fun!  Certified lifeguards staff our pools, and our swim lessons are taught by trained swim instructors.  We set aside time for member lap swim and for family recreational swim.  Our water exercise programs offer a low impact, high intensity alternative to land aerobics.  Many of our YMCAs have year-round indoor pools, while additional locations have seasonal outdoor pools.

Locker Rooms
A place to get changed, shower, even dry your hair!  Our clean and well-maintained locker rooms are equipped with changing areas, lockers and vanities. 

Specialty Programs
No matter what your interest or ability, we have special programs for you and your family.   We teach our people how to safely experience and enjoy our pools.  Teens can expand their worlds with programs like Youth & Government, community volunteer projects and other teen clubs.  Our sports programs build winners on and off the field by demonstrating and encouraging positive values, teamwork and fair play.  As an additional benefit, YMCA Members receive priority registration and reduced rates on programs.

Child Watch
Finding time for you to get fit isn't always easy with a hectic family schedule.  At many of our YMCA's, we'll help you make the time by offering quality babysitting services led by trained YMCA staff. Check with your local YMCA for more information.
