YWCA of Asheville

I have been a member of the YWCA for 2 years. There is a strong sense of belonging and community. The staff and instructors genuinely care about their members, giving individualized attention to those with special needs. The gym equipment is state of the art and is kept clean and well maintained. The YWCA helps me along my journey of health and wellness. Thank you for empowering me to be my better self.

My family has been YWCA members for years and have enjoyed the spacious gym, pool, and many inclusive fitness programs they offer (like prenatal fitness). It's never crowded and they have ALL the machines and weights I (or anyone, really) needs to complete an effective push, pull, leg weight training program. Aside from a few cardio machines that might be out of order, I have found all the machines and free weights to be in good working order. Despite not being "new," these machines are consistently accessible and available! But the real reason I love coming to the YWCA is because it's more than a gym, it's a community! I support their anti-racism mission, educational programming, and affordable day care for working parents. It's been great to see the positive impact they've had on the local community here in the South French Broad and Southside neighborhood! 💕

I love the ywca. There's never any waiting for the machines. The instructors are great and there's a wonderful sense of community among the participants. I've gotten so much stronger and lost 10 lb yay

I recently rejoined the "W" & so happy I did. A true community, I felt welcome on day 1!! As a long time resident of Asheville it was great to walk in a class & see SO many folks I have known for many years- just like being at home. I have always appreciated the Mission statement & decided to put my $$ where my heart is. The teachers are awesome, knowledgeable & FUN!!!! Lots of variety to choose from. Special shout out for Delia, she has a an excellent eye & gives LOTS of modifications as needed in all of her multilevel classes. thanks YWCA.

I joined the YWCA for the pool, but they offer so much more than that! I love the welcoming people and the mission-driven work. I feel so comfortable in the space that I've been able to branch out into new workout routines that I often felt too overwhelmed to try at other gyms. The group fitness offerings are great, too.
