Childress Klein YMCA
Welcome to the Childress Klein YMCA
In 1989, the Childress Klein YMCA opened its doors to the community in uptown Charlotte. We serve over 7,500 people each year and offer our members high-quality service, personal attention, customized class schedules and top-of-the-line fitness facilities. The Childress Klein YMCA is an adult-only branch and welcomes members 16 year of age or older.
We’re more than a gym; beyond fitness, we engage the community by fostering connection among YMCA members and offering ways to give back. We are especially proud of our branches support of the Y Readers program helping students read proficiently.
