What Our Guests and Members Say
Great facility and very friendly staff. I looked at a bunch of YMCA's in the area and this one convinced me to buy my home where I did. Gotta have the ability to play PickleBall with my dad when he visits after all.
— Harrison, RiverChase YMCA
Whether you're into cardio, strength training, or group fitness classes, there's something for everyone. Overall, it's a great place to stay active and feel part of a community!
— Chassidy, Edward Jones YMCA
The people are so friendly and helpful. The pool is one of the best around and always clean. The lifeguards are attentive and awesome!
— Sue, Chesterfield YMCA
Very accommodating of me as an out of state visitor, looking up my national membership and allowing me to register when I arrived for a class or via phone. Excellent facilities, very clean! The entire staff - front desk, instructors, housekeeping - so pleasant and welcoming.
— Jan, Carondelet Park Rec Complex
