Boulder YMCA

Really like this place. Used to come here for summer camp as a kid and it was always super fun.

Boulder YMCA was amazing!!! Had all the equipment we needed for an effective workout!!!

You’ll come for the classes and great facility but you’ll end up staying for the amazing people and energy of this gym.

I love being a member of this Y!! **I will provide a disclaimer that I am a family member of one of the managers here but as an active member I really just wanted to share my personal experience in this gym and community so hopefully others will come join us. I was NOT incentivized or asked in any way to make this review.**The community at Mapleton is really special and I’ve made many friends here since moving to Boulder this summer. All of the classes I’ve taken have been informative and inclusive of all skill levels. I especially enjoy the Body Pump classes. They’re challenging but so fun and welcoming. There are many regulars at Mapleton and it’s fascinating to hear their stories. Some of the regulars at this Y have been going here for 20+ years. 🤯 I think this Y does a great job of helping foster connections and I’m grateful to have a social space since I work from home normally. They recently did an Art Night which was awesome and a great place to connect with the staff and other members outside of a fitness setting.The facility is always clean (as it should be) and they’re clearly investing in its improvement as well. They just repainted the outside and I hear they’re repainting the inside soon. It looks great! They lost their pool over the summer due to structural issues but they’ve been making up for it and adding new classes elsewhere.I also want to make a special note that, as a woman, I feel safe and included at this gym, far more than any other gym I’ve been to. It seems obvious, but they are definitely taking measures to make sure everyone feels welcome here.You’ll come for the classes and great facility but you’ll end up staying for the amazing people and energy of this gym.

I was outside this facility with my 3yo son when he had a "I have to go potty!" emergency. We went inside the Y hoping to quickly use the restroom knowing full well that it isn't a public facility. We kindly asked the the lady at the front desk for permission to use the restroom but she told us to get out. I don't see how this falls in line with YMCA's "Christian Principles".

GREAT customer service at this location! Every person I interacted with was kind, understanding and just went above & beyond. The gym has a warm and friendly environment with a ton of sunlight and all the equipment you need.

We both paid for a day pass in the morning and went into the facility about couple hours later to use the restroom and were told we couldn’t use it. I had a disabled lady with me. They didn’t care and said sorry I was misinformed about the bathroom use. They had no problem taking both of our $12. Not very Christian values here. Never had issues at an YMCA in other state. The people in the morning were very kind but the second shift were rude and didn’t care at all.

I was in Boulder temporarily and signed up for a monthly membership and locker rental for the month of October only, paid my month up front for my membership on Oct 2 using my debit card. I did not want to have my membership on auto pay and clarified that I could pay with my debit card but not keep it on file and Kathy at the front agreed, I even offered to go get cash but she insisted it was ok. I returned a couple days later to rent a locker and had no choice but to put my card on file for the $20/mo locker fee, they said didn’t accept month to month payments for lockers. I knew I wouldn’t be there long but a monthly membership was cheaper than buying day passes and on Oct 11 it was time to move on to Portland, the next leg of my trip. I went to the front desk and told Kathy I needed to cancel my membership and locker as I was leaving Colorado for Oregon. She suggested I keep it and use it in other states and I said that I wasn’t sure if I’d be able to and that I wasn’t returning to Colorado ever (I’m fromTexas), making conversation more than anything else and filled out the required form to cancel my membership. She told me to return my locker sticker by the end of the day so when I used the facilities for the last time that evening, I emptied my locker and handed in my sticker to the employee on duty telling her my locker #, that I was leaving the state and wouldn’t be back, and that Kathy told me to be sure to turn in my locker sticker. And that was that.On Nov 2 I was charged for both the monthly membership and locker fees despite clear communication, returning my locker sticker and signing a cancellation form. I called the same day and initially there was a lot of confusion since I didn’t have the name of the employee I handed my locker sticker to and Kathy remembered things differently but she agreed to cancel the locker fee while looking into the membership fee. Which she did but then charged it to my card again the following day. I called back on Nov 6 and Kathy said she’d made a mistake, cancelled the duplicate charge for the locker and this time cancelled the membership fee as well, and that was that.Until I looked at my account and saw that the membership fee had been charged again to my card, just after it had been cancelled. Both times unauthorized. Only this time when I called back Kathy didn’t want to help me anymore so gave me an email address for Maggie who she said would get the charge removed. Maggie hasn’t responded to my emails until yesterday after I called Kathy to let her know, only saying she didn’t have the ability to remove the charge and would forward my email to a Kathleen. It’s Nov 14 and the charge is still on my account and I’ve heard nothing from Kathy, Kathleen or Maggie. Will likely have to dispute the charge once it hits 30 days without one of them correcting the mistake. A very unfortunate situation for me, I hope no one else has the same experience. If I had it to do all over again, I’d have paid in cash and not rented the locker since they would t accept cash for it.

Very spacious and roomy locker rooms. With everything you could possibly need for a good cardio winter work out indoors. If you're shopping around Boulder CO for a workout center, the YMCA Mapleton center has it all.

I've worked at, and been a member for several different gyms over the years, but the YMCA on Mapleton, not only accommodates your needs, but goes out of their way to make things happen! Last week we needed a space to host a self defense seminar that we originally wanted to have outside, and they made last minute accommodations for us to use their studio space. The staff communicated well with each other and with me to make sure everything ran smoothly, and they were extremely supportive in all the ways they could be. This YMCA center definitely represents community. 10/10 would recommend!!
