Roxbury YMCA
About
The Roxbury YMCA is a branch of the YMCA of Greater Boston offering fitness, aquatics, youth programs and early education for the neighborhood. Members can take group exercise classes such as HIIT, Zumba, yoga, barre and Pilates, swim in the pool or join water fitness classes, and play pickleball. Youth swimming lessons and sports programs, including basketball, keep kids learning and active, and the building has men’s and women’s steam rooms and saunas.
The branch traces its legacy back to the founding of the YMCA of Greater Boston and has served for generations as a place where neighbors connect and families find support. Beyond the gym, it runs early education programs and teen programming and offers Child Watch for children ages 18 months to 12 years while parents work out. Volunteers can coach, read to children, help at events or serve on the advisory board.
