Welcome to the YMCA Sports Center.
Gym in Jerusalem
The YMCA Sports Center has an expansive, state of the art fitness room which is spread over two floors. The upstairs gallery has a wide array of cardio machines including brand new Precor treadmills, elipticals and adaptive motion trainers. All cardio machines have the Preva® operating system that powers networked fitness on Precor consoles providing exercisers with the personalized, goal-focused fitness and as well as a varied media experience including cable TV, Netflix and Internet. The main floor includes selectorized resistance equipment, plate loaded strength equipment, functional training areas and a wide assortment of benches, racks and free weights.
Group Exercise classes are held in a large fully equipped exercise studio with mirrored walls and suspended wood flooring that absorbs impact. Some classes are held in the basketball court and small group classes are held in an adjacent studio.
During the week there are over 50 group exercise classes, including: Zumba, Yoga, Pilates, Spinning, Barre, HIIT and more.
Personal Training
Many people train most effectively only when they have close personal guidance- especially for them we offer a one-on-one fitness package. Each training session takes about 60 minutes and is part of a training program tailored to the needs of the trainee, his or her goals and physical capabilities.
Each personal training session is given under the full and strict supervision of the instructor – with an emphasis on providing personal attention, encouraging, and accompanying of the trainee every step of the way, inspiring motivation, and engendering good habits and mental empowerment. The result achieved, at the end of the process, is just this: maximum results – in the minimum time.
Half-Olympic Swimming Pool
One of the main attractions of the complex is the swimming pool. The pool is semi-Olympic – it is 25 meters long and 24 meters wide, and is particularly deep: 2.2 meters. The pool offers up to 10 swimming tracks, and is suitable for both amateur and professional swimmers.
In order to enhance the swimming conditions and the experience of being in the water, the pool was planned and designed in cooperation with experts in the field. The water temperature in the pool is about 29 degrees, and the pool is active and accessible all year round.
Among the activities offered to our members are water gymnastics, swimming classes for all ages, and of course many hours of swimming, paddling and fun. A jacuzzi and two saunas are available by the pool, where you can relieve muscle tension at the end of your workout.
Studio
The YMCA is proud to be one of the central, leading institutions in Jerusalem for studio classes. A rich and varied class selection, spacious studios, new methods imported from abroad and a team of experienced and professional instructors all give you an exceptional studio experience in an international atmosphere.
We offer our members over 50 lessons a week, including:
Pilates
Zumba
Yoga
Spinning
TRX training
Ballet Bar
AXLE lessons (exclusive to Israel)
Personal massage training
Functional training
The abundance of choice, as we know, may be confusing, so each of our clients is invited to come, to get an impression of the studio, to consult with one of the staff members – and to choose the activity, style, level and trainer that suits them.
Spinning® Fitness Bikes
We wanted your Spinning enthusiasts to enjoy it even more – and so we purchased the Spinner® Chrono Power, the only exercise bikes to measure power output that give users a smooth ride.
The bike allows users , among other things, to measure the strength invested in the training session, the number of turns per minute and the distance traveled. During the class you can compete with other participants – or challenge yourself and try to break your personal record.
