The South YMCA in Kettering is a full-service gym and family wellness center. The facility is always kept very clean, and the staff are friendly and helpful. It offers a wide variety of activities and different programs for kids and adults, including group fitness classes, personal training, swimming, gymnastics, and karate. Youth and adult sports like soccer, basketball, and volleyball are available, with the soccer program noted as being particularly well-run and improving. Families can utilize child care, school programs, and summer camps. While generally praised, some members express frustration when the pool is occasionally closed or reserved for events. Overall, it is seen as more than just a gym—it is a place for the community to grow, connect, and thrive.
I would give 10 stars if I could! This is the best gym I've ever been to. The child watch staff are exceptional and I feel so comfortable leaving my children there. Karen is an great membership director, Eme the child watch coordinator gives 1000% in everything and Karen in gymnastics is so patient with my children.

Logan the soccer coordinator has really improved YMCA's soccer program.
Every year he's in charge, it gets better and better. He identified a new app that sends email reminders about soccer practices and game times. It's great!
Well done Logan!
