Young Mens Christian Association Of Rye N Y

Social Responsibility: For 110 years, the Rye Y has been a hub of community life and a catalyst for positive change. Our mission takes us outside the walls of the Y, into schools, senior centers, town halls, local businesses and houses of worship. We offer members of all ages the opportunity to make a difference through community service. We bring hope to cancer survivors and help at-risk adults face chronic disease head-on. We teach children drowning prevention skills through our free Safety Around Water class. We do all this and more while keeping a powerful promise to the communities we serve: no-one will be turned away from a Y program or activity because they can't pay. SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY (CON'T) This spirit of social responsibility infuses every aspect of our work, from the partnerships that foster strong communities to the small group programs that promote health and well-being.

Healthy Living: The Rye Y offers many opportunities for members to pursue their health and wellness goals. Our main facility houses a 3,800-sq.ft fitness center, a 6,800 sq.-ft. gymnasium and two pools. Here members can work with a personal trainer, take aquatics classes, swim laps, play basketball, work out, and more. Many of our programs are also open to non-members. Since 2011, we have run LIVESTRONG at the YMCA, a 12-week small group program for adult cancer survivors that is free and open to the community. HEALTHY LIVING (CON'T) The Studios at the Rye YMCA is a vibrant, state-of-the-art facility with studios for yoga, Pilates, indoor cycling, High Intensity Interval Training, and more. By the end of the year, we were running 100 group exercise classes per week at the Y Studios. The Y holds senior health fairs, offers evidence-based community health programs and offers a gathering space for area non-profits in the Studios.

Aquatics Safety and Instruction: Knowing how to swim and be safe around water is one of the most important life skills a person can learn. We believe that these vital skills can be learned at any stage of life, from infancy (6+ months) to youth to the senior years. The Rye Y's aquatics programs focus on the basic techniques of swimming, training for team competition, and specialized skills such as life guarding and CPR. They foster increased confidence in the water and team building, and give swimmers of all ages a fitness activity that can be enjoyed throughout life. We also offer free pool time for family swim and to other non-profit organizations.
