The University Y Student Center is more than a building—it’s a community. The Y staff is dedicated to giving members an amazing experience through their custom-sculpted rock wall, group fitness classes, Fit Path personal wellness coaching, and more. All UW students have a membership included with their student fees, and faculty and staff get the joining fee waived!

Our rock wall is open to all members aged five years and up, and our Y staff are available to belay.

If you need some help getting motivated or just want to make some friends with similar fitness goals, we have group fitness classes. The Y has a wide array of classes from Adult Hip Hop to Yoga to Jillian Michaels BODYSHRED, which are all free with membership.

Want to work out but don’t have a sitter? No problem! Child Watch is offered Monday through Friday, 5-8 p.m., and Saturday 9 a.m.-1 p.m.

This looks like a great facility! Is there a Y membership benefit for retirees of UW Tacoma? (UW retirees are able to join the IMA in Seattle, but that’s not convenient for Tacoma retirees.)

    Hi Cathy,
    We have group fitness class called “Boot Camp” that happens on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 6:15-7:15am and Saturdays from 9-10am that is included with your Y membership. We also offer other classes to Y members that would be beneficial for retirees like yoga and Core and More. For a full list schedule of our classes, visit this link and click “schedules”:
