Culver-Palms Family YMCA — Attraction in Culver City

Quaint and Lovable. The Best Damn Classes for an Amazing Price. Honestly, I wasn't expecting this place to be THIS PHENOMENAL. The instructors at this local Y will blow you away. And the people (staff and members) are energetic, fit, fun, and welcoming. They have something here for everyone in the family (yes, classes for kids!) and if you don't have one, you'll fit right in too. The Spin, Hiphop , Zumba and Ashtanga yoga classes are the best ones around. SImply amazing programming and result driven and fun instructors.

He sat at the snack bar while the others rode up and down the bike path. Other arrangements can be made ahead of time by the parents. Keep in touch with the schedule, prepare, and...

This has been my Y for more than 20 years. My daughter had child care here when she was two, and she learned to swim here. I have been dedicated to their gym and Zumba classes (on and off) since 2011. Both of my children were in the Youth and Government program, and my daughter was in the Model UN program as well. Both kids and many of their friends attending summer camp with the Y as well. It is an important institution in our community, and it is important to the health and well-being of our children, their parents and the elderly. It's not the biggest, fanciest, Y in town, but it does a great job of serving the community. The staff is helpful and friendly, and the newly renovated...
