YMCA memberships are a great value!

There are numerous reasons to become a YMCA Member! Your YMCA membership allows you to become a part of a community, make new friends, and enjoy your favorite activities at a price you can afford. Below is a list of benefits to becoming a YMCA Member.

Online & Early Registration
YMCA members receive priority registration and reduced rates on programs.

Reduced Rates on Specialty Programs
As an additional benefit, the YMCA membership allows you to partake in our specialty programs at reduced rates, no matter what your interest or ability is. We teach our members how to safely experience and enjoy our pool. Teens can expand their worlds with programs like Youth & Government, community volunteer projects, and other teen programs. Our sports programs build winners on and off the field by demonstrating and encouraging positive values, teamwork, and fair play. 

Free Group Exercise Classes
Included in your membership are many group exercise classes - classes perfect for the beginning exerciser or for the fitness enthusiast. Our YMCA offers aerobics, step classes, yoga, cycling classes, and much more. Whatever your fitness level or experience, our classes will give you a great workout in a fun, welcoming environment.

Free One-on-One Wellness Center Consultations
Everyone’s path to Health Enhancement is unique and individual; our FREE Wellness Center Consultations will help you in establishing goals and guide you in the right direction based on your needs and interests. Visit the Wellness Center for details.

Locker Rooms and Towel Service
Many of our members are constantly chasing children or rushing back to the office after their lunch hour workout. Our YMCA members have a place to change, shower, and even dry their hair before heading out the door! Our clean and well-maintained locker rooms are equipped with changing areas, lockers, and vanities. Upon each visit to the YMCA, members receive two towels to help ease the "Things to Remember" list. 

AWAY Program
(Always Welcome At YMCAs) The La Crosse Area Family YMCA is part of the Away Program, a national program that entitles YMCA members to visit over 2000 YMCAs across the country. Ask the Member Services Desk to call the city you will be visiting or visit www.ymca.net to find a YMCA. Some restrictions may apply.

Cardio Equipment & Strength Training Circuit
Our YMCA has top of the line and easy to use equipment. This includes recumbent bicycles, cross trainers, treadmills, and more. In addition, our members have use of free weights and strength training equipment.

Gymnasium
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 gym times for kids, adults, and families.

Pool
Water provides a great avenue for exercise and fun! Certified lifeguards staff our pools, and trained swim instructors teach our swim lessons. We set aside time for member lap swim and for family swim.
