About Our Classes

Be Healthy, Be Strong, Belong

​Have fun and get fit in a safe, motivating setting! Taught by certified instructors, our group fitness classes provide community, accountability and guidance in how to properly perform the exercises. The result is lasting friendships and a workout routine that you'll want to stick with!

Aerobics and group fitness classes are held at both Joplin Family YMCA facilities. These classes are free to members and are $6/day for non-members. Registration is not necessary, and classes run continuously without start or stop dates.
