Membership to the YMCA

‌Anyone can join the YMCA. The YMCA has always been a great fit for everyone and their family. Now, it’s also a great fit for every budget.

Because we believe a healthier lifestyle should be available to all, we’re now offering an income-based fee scale. Join the YMCA and your monthly membership fee will be based on your annual household income.

Our membership types are based on household types, we have no contracts to sign, a 30-day money-back guarantee on your joining fee, a comprehensive corporate membership plan and an AWAY program, in which you can use your Houston membership at other participating YMCAs across the country. Joining the Y has never been easier!

EVERYONE BELONGS at the YMCA of Greater Houston. At the YMCA, we’re more than just a place to work out. We’re a place where you can be yourself.

Whether you’re just starting on the road to health and wellness, or you’re a veteran, you’ll feel comfortable at the YMCA. Visit and you will understand why so many people love it here.

It’s because we don’t care what you look like when you come in. We just want you to feel great when you leave.

Open Doors Scholarship Program

The YMCA is community-based and believes that its programs and services should be available to everyone regardless of age, background, ability or income. That’s why the YMCA offers an OPEN DOORS program, a sliding fee scale that is designed to fit your individual financial situation.
