Welcome to the Lakewood Family YMCA. We are here for you!

We are proud to serve our community through programs and services that focus on youth development, healthy living and social responsibility. From swimming, to school support, to group exercise, the Y offers a great variety of activities that help people of all ages and abilities grow strong in spirit, mind and body. 

Get connected through programs!

We are more than just a gym. One reason a Y membership is such a great value is the large variety of free classes. Some specialty programs have an additional fee and require registration, such as swim lessons, sports leagues, group training, summer camp, and others. Members enjoy a reduced rate of off program fees. Check out our Programs tab in our top menu!

WELCOME BACK

Join a community where your safety is our priority. Following guidance from the CDC and LA County Health Department, our Y takes numerous safety precautions including social distancing and ensuring the highest standards of cleanliness and care in our branches.

BRING YOUR GAME

Is your child ready to be part of a team? At the Y, kids can improve their skills and make new friends while establishing healthy sportsmanship behavior on and off the field. From Basketball to Soccer, the Y offers a variety of options following CDC safety guidelines!

Y CAMP ACADEMY

Y Camp Academy is an in-person day camp dedicated to providing a safe, healthy, and clean environment to support children in their e-learning while keeping them active and engaged throughout the day.
