Health and Well-being Opportunities
Participation in YMCA health and well-being
programs offers opportunities for friendship and community,
a sense of well-being, self-confidence, improved mental
abilities, and quality of life. This is in addition
to healthy hearts, lungs, bones and muscles.
YMCAs believe that exercise and health education
are important for people of all ages and abilities.
The Quincy Branch has a friendly and knowledgeable staff,
and a wide array of fitness equipment to meet the needs
of a variety of fitness levels and ages. The Center
is fully staffed and available to members 13 years old

specialized equipment with appropriate training and
supervision based on our youth member guidelines. For
additional information please call (617) 479-8500, x137.
An orientation for new members or those
requiring a refresher is available on all of our equipment.
We also offer personal training for those desiring a
more comprehensive instruction program, and Keeping Fit strength and cardiovascular training programs.
