Our Y Stories

As the calendar turns toward a fresh year, one familiar pattern surfaces across the fitness world: January becomes the busiest month for gym enrolments. Recent industry data show that about 12% of all new health-club memberships are initiated in January. Some reports also show that many fitness centers see enrolments surge by 25-30% during January compared with other months. 

At the YMCA of Greater Cleveland, our commitment goes beyond physical fitness — we believe in supporting the whole person: spirit, mind and body. We begam offering this service at our Hillcrest Family YMCA and Warrensville Heights Family YMCA, and now we’re expanding to other branches.What We Offer
