Focused On Your Wellness at the Y
We know wellness involves more than working out. The Y offers several wellness programs throughout the year to come alongside you and your wellness journey.
Whether you’re looking to lose weight, get stronger, eat healthier, fight disease, improve your energy or lower stress, we have people and programs in place to help. We offer a variety of fun, high-quality programs that are included in your Y membership or require an additional fee.
For more than 130 years, the Y has served as a nonprofit leader and partner in community health, delivering evidence-based health programs and interventions that benefit vulnerable populations and those managing the life-altering effects of chronic disease.

Can you exercise enough to make it to the beach in just 12 weeks? Bring it to the beach is a challenge to get you moving and utilizing the Reidsville YMCA!
The distance between Reidsville and the NC coastline is approximately 236 miles, and each visit to the YMCA earns “beach miles.” Those who successfully earn 236 miles will be entered into a drawing for 2 prizes. One of the prize drawings will be for a weekend at the beach!
- Miles will be tracked by YMCA membership card scans.
- Each visit to the Reidsville YMCA = 6 beach miles toward 236 total beach miles. That’s an average 3.5 visits/week for 12 weeks (only one visit per day). Winners will be announced the week of May 1st.
- Those who successfully complete the challenge will be entered into a prize drawing.
