The East Communities YMCA has been part of the East Austin community for over 15 years. We'd love to have you join our family!

Our clean facility includes two beautiful outdoor pools, three safe spaces for your child to stay while you work out, and many spaces and places for you to exercise. Our group exercise schedule includes classes for all ages and abilities, such as yoga, Zumba, BodyPump and more. We offer youth sports year-round, including soccer, basketball, volleyball and more. Our fitness center has new Cybex strength equipment, and top-of-the-line Precor cardio equipment. Best of all, we think our members are awesome - and we think you'd agree!
