Ventura Family YMCA

I’m happy with the facility and the offerings they have. The ladies locker room was renovated recently. It’s more user friendly, roomy and clean. Lots of equipment to choose from. The Fitlinxx room is awesome!

The YMCA Ventura recently renovated parts of the ladies restroom. Its very nice, more toilets, showers, very clean. I've been a member for 4 years. I'm very pleased with the offerings at my gym.love the cardio room and their FitLinxx room is ideal for beginners and veterans alike. Thumbs Up!

I like it here, but it’s really hard to get a lane to swim in. I’m a visually impaired, full time working person and I rely on public transportation. A few times I was told to share lanes, even though I explained I couldn’t see well enough to do that safely. I have gone in the morning 3 times and had to leave because people are in the lanes walking, talking, standing.but not swimming. The lifeguards really need to enforce the lap swim times and not allow people to use swim lanes as a social gathering. The therapy pool is perfect for that kind of activity.

This has been my gym for the last 2.5 years and I love it here.
The staff is super friendly. They know about the gym and are very caring.
The rooms have recently been remodeled. They just redid the weight room and some other rooms. They have good machines.
I enjoy the cardio room.
My daughter takes swim lessons here.
You gotta check the outdoor area too!

I joined the Ventura Y when my own kids were little, and now my daughters have joined with their families. Love all the swimming programs, but especially love the Small Group Trainings. Its worth the additional fee. The regulars have become like family.

I have been going to the YMCA for 12 years. Originally I chose this gym because of their excellent childcare. My kids are grown now but I’ve stayed because of the excellent group classes, helpful staff and the family friendly atmosphere. I’ve been taking yoga and Zumba classes for 10 years and the instructors are superb. I’ve made many friends over the years and I will never leave the Y for another gym. There is something for everyone!

Been going here for 27 years and it’s still the best gym! It has everything all in one place, and the staff is always so kind and helpful.

I cannot say enough good things about the YMCA. The YMCA is a great gym for families. The childcare program makes it easy to drop your children off and go for a good workout without worrying about the kids.
Being diagnosed with cancer, I found the Livestrong program at the YMCA to be very beneficial. This program has a great post-rehabilitation exercise program and supportive cancer care. Participating in this program with other cancer patients helped me with sharing my experience of dealing with cancer and hearing what they were feeling and the struggles that they have encountered.
The YMCA has a large selection of group exercise programs and children programs. The facility is clean and the staff is very friendly.

I love coming to the YMCA! The staff and community who are at this gym are always wonderful to be around. It's like one big family here and going to the different types of classes, whether it be swimming classes, indoor classes, out door classes, or even just hitting the weight rooms, this is the place to be if you want to feel inspired and motivated to be a better and healthier version of yourself!

A wonderful place with a vast variety of equipment, a large selection of classes, and a great community.

I like the variety of classes offered particularly the small group training classes. The staff is friendly and always accommodating.

The small group outdoor exercises classes are amazing- like personal training but a fraction of the cost. Consistently hard but doable workouts. I've been part of this program for about a year and have gotten a lot stronger as a result. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a tough but supportive exercise program. Also- we use the childcare at the Y a lot and it is a clean and nurturing environment.

This YMCA is a Rip Off Fraud; took two months of membership fees on a scholarship program from a single mom after I cancelled and moved away! Didn't go there; and want to be a member and they deducted money off my CC without my permission. Under investigation for FRAUD and dirty lockerrooms with someone they sprays kidz with toxic sprays.very strange and unprofessional YMCA; I"m out of there.very sad.they have to steal! 1

The best thing about the Y is there is something for everyone. You can go with the whole family and they can all find something fun to do. I particularly enjoy the yoga. The staff is also very friendly and helpful.

Ventura Family YMCA offers such a variety of programs & activities that further the well-being of members. Staff are dedicated to helping everyone achieve healthy fitness goals. Local support of the Ventura YMCA is extremely important. Reach out to the community YMCA and see what they offer. It's a great place to be in the New Year 2020 - see you there!

I love taking the zumba and yoga classes at the Y. The instructors are incredible and it's so much fun to work out with my friends. My husband and sons enjoy working out with the free weights and machines. The staff makes you feel welcome and it's a great family place.

This Y Family is the best. There is no other wellness business that cares for the well-being of Ventura like the Y. We are a non-profit, cause-driven, charitable organization, that will do what it can to provide resources and opportunity for Ventura and surrounding communities. We are more than a gym. Come visit our Community Open House on January 4th from 10: 00am-1: 00pm and experience the Y for yourself.

They have a lot of group classes to choose from in the evening. My favorite classes are Zumba, Pilates and Spiit. I also like that there is a pool so I have even more options for working out.

The “Y” is far more than a gym. Great classes and dedicated staff. Year after year they show support for the surrounding community. I Highly recommend the Ventura YMCA.

Ventura currently is over run with gyms from big box chains to boutique fitness groups to crossfit, etc.but hands down the best one for families is the YMCA. The youth programs are amazing. My son started swim lessons at 6 months and now is enrolled in their new toddler music class which he adores. Although I leave with Raffi jams stuck in my head for the rest of the day it's a small price to pay to see how much fun he's having. He's starting their itty bitty sports programs in January when he turns 2. To be able to have proper childcare for my son that he looks forward to while I work out as well is also blessing that wasn't able to find at other gyms. Everyone is welcoming and friendly and they have everything for adults on the fitness side from a weight room to cardio equipment to the pool to the sauna. Can't say enough. The Y is more than a gym but it's also the best gym in town. Just wanted to acknowledge how much the place means to me and give everyone there some well deserved kudos!
