The Southdale YMCA in Edina is a clean, modern facility offering a wide range of fitness and community programs. It features a newly renovated fitness center with quite a bit of cardio equipment, egym strength machines, and a freeweight area that is not big but not small. Members have access to over 180 weekly group exercise classes, such as body pump and yoga flow, which welcome a diverse mix of people, ages, and fitness levels. The extensive amenities include a climbing wall, skate park, a 6 lane lap pool, a warm water family/therapeutic pool, a whirlpool, a very hot steam room, a sauna, and racquetball courts. The staff are consistently described as amazing, kind, helpful, friendly, lovely, and great. This extends to the front desk, the fitness class instructors, and the super sweet daycare workers, with one of the few gyms noted for good daycare hours. The facility is very clean and busy but never overcrowded, with a good variety of exercisers young and old. It also offers reasonable cost sports and youth programs where coaches take their time to teach the basics. Overall, it is a highly recommended community center that members absolutely love.
Super nice people working (out) there! Liked the pool a lot. I agree that this facility is a little outdated but who cares. Works great for what I need from a gym:)
