YMCAs have led health and fitness programs for people of all ages, incomes and abilities for more than a century. We also focus on overall wellness, empowering you to tailor your own plan toward healthier living by choosing how you will accomplish your wellness goals. The whole approach means you have many options and lots of support as you choose your path to a healthier new you!
At the SANTA MONICA FAMILY YMCA, we have the facilities, equipment, programs, and staff to support you. Make new friends, increase your self-confidence, and improve your spiritual, mental and physical health.
Fitness Center Hours:
Mon -Fri: 6 am to 8pm
Saturday & Sunday: 8 am to 5 pm
We encourage everyone 15 years and older to try one of our classes, our new weight room or our fitness center. For the safety of our youth and adult members, kids 12-14 years old may use any of the equipment as long as a parent or guardian is working out next to them.
From Tai Chi to Zumba® , the Y offers group exercise classes for all ages, levels and interests — and they’re free with a Santa Monica YMCA membership!
With experienced and passionate group exercise trainers, and a fun and supportive environment, we’re sure you’ll find an engaging and fun class that helps you reach your health and wellness goals. Click to learn more
Do you know how much muscle you have? Or if you are hydrated enough? With any workout program, it’s important to know where you’re starting from so you can create a plan to achieve your goals. Click to learn more about body composition and why it’s important.
If you’re new to the Santa Monica YMCA and don’t know how our equipment works, you can schedule a time with a Health Coach who will show you how to use all our equipment.
Our Health Coaches can also set you up on an 8-week program which gives you workouts to do on your own.
At one point or another, we all need the guidance of an expert to reach a goal.
Luckily, working with one of our certified personal trainers is one of the most rewarding experiences you can have at the gym. There’s simply nothing that beats having their friendly personal attention and encouragement with you every step of the way as you reach your personal fitness goals.
