WELCOME TO THE Y!

For 100 years, the YMCA of South Florida has been dedicated to building healthy, confident and secure children, families and communities. Whether you’re looking to get healthy, meet new people, or spend more time with your family, we’re here for you. Our impact is felt every day when an individual makes a healthy choice, when a mentor inspires a child and when a community comes together for the common good. When you join the Y, you’re joining more than a gym, you’re joining a community committed to transforming lives—spirit, mind, and body.
