The YMCA is committed to equity, safety, and community impact and offers both in-person and online fitness options, including events such as tournaments.

The YMCA recently launched a hybrid fitness experience which includes both the ability to drop into locations for in-person classes and to stream on-demand fitness classes and programs at any time. YMCA360, the virtual platform, provides members with not only fitness classes such as core, barre and Pilates, but also with wellness guidance on nutrition, recovery and more. This assists in creating a holistic health experience for members that centers on wellness. This hybrid program could be a great choice for busy, on-the-go professionals and parents who need the flexibility of exercise from their homes and the option for in-person community activities.
