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.
I love zumba Saturday mornings with Jen! So fun! I only go that day since it's a 30 minute commute for me but I highly recommend attending her classes.
I will also say I ditched classpass and got a YMCA membership partially because of how much I enjoyed her class so I hope she keeps teaching!

I swam here as a kid and now got my family going here for the gym and pool. My son enjoys the summer power program.
