YMCA at First & Main - Colorado Springs, Colorado

Jo ?. B.

I've been coming here since 2022 and this is my favorite YMCA in Colorado Springs! 🩷✨

I'm very reliant on gym daycare in order to be able to workout and this location have the best in the area. As far as child care facilities, I think there are other branches that have better stuff for to do for kids, but those one is the best for the reason that this seems to be the cleanest and have the least likely odds of your kid catching anything in the daycare and getting sick 🤔🦠 —not to mention the child care workers here are very attentive and sweet, and are great with the kids! My son loves coming here and spending a few hours in their daycare zone.

As far as daycare hours, those are subject to change. They recently increased their daycare hours and expanded it to more than what they used to offer, so you'd have to check their website (or those pamphlets they hand out in the front desk) in order to get the full, updated details 🙏🏼 in general, YMCA allows for 2 and 1/2 hours of daycare use per day; hours of availability vary per location.

As far as gym equipment, this location is the newest and most updated, with what looks to be the newer machines and weights on the floor compared to some of the other locations. Parking can be rough during busy hours (which I noticed to be in the mornings), but you can still find parking—just further out of the way 🚗

No pool in this YMCA location tho, sadly 🤔 but that's personally not a deal-breaker for me so it's not losing any stars for me for that.

I embarked on my fitness journey little over 3 years ago, during that time here at YMCA at first and main not only have I saw tremendous amounts of self growth and improvement, but I have also made many friends. The overall environment here at the y is unmatched anywhere else. The staff is always happy and serving infectious smiles. We all know how hard it is just to want to go to the gym sometimes, and when i catch myself struggling to get going i think of all the amazing people and environment that is at the y and it motivates me to go! Super clean as well, the facilities team does a great job! Easily a 5 star experience

Happy to come to this clean and easy to use space! How cool is the cinema room; get a kicks ass workout and not even feel it because you’re enjoying g a cool movie. The local Pickleball community is very kind and welcoming. Get ready to learn, have fun compete in a nontoxic environment.

Got kicked out for having a conversation on the phone. The tall male trainer with tattoos came up to me during my workout and told me I couldn’t be on the phone …. Would give this place 0 stars. But I worked in customer service for so long. I don’t want it to affect the owner. I’ve worked out my whole life and never been treated like this at the gym. Sorry to the owner but I was spending $120 a month to get that kind of treatment. I’m out.

I really am enjoying being back at this YMCA. Friendly staff, always a clean gym. There are plenty of cardio machines and normally I can do my scheduled workout on the weights I need to use. I like the shower rooms as well.

My husband and I had to move from Colorado Springs and we were SO sad to leave. YMCA First & Main staff were always so friendly and remembered us and our girls. The Learn n’ Play staff adored our two babies and always treated them so well and we trusted them completely with our girls. Our girls loved them as well. We will miss the YMCA family at First & Main ❤️

I absolutely love PPYMCA and I have spent time at several of the locations. I consider first and main my “home” location and it’s a great facility. The learn and play in particular has been amazing! They take great care of my two younger kiddos, knowing them by name, greeting them warmly, doing activities and play time. We all love it! I’m so grateful for what they do. Working with a ton of kids all day long is a tough job! I love that I can see into the play area from the weight floor too and just see how my kiddos are— it gives a sense of transparency and it’s just fun to watch them play and interact. I highly recommend the Y. It’s a great community organization with a lot to offer.

This is absolutely one of the best gyms I have ever been to in my life. As a native growing up in the springs, I have been to a lot. The difference at this gym is the absolutely wonderful staff like Shantell and Sunny. I would recommend this gym to anyone and everyone.
