Try the Y

Find Your Community at the NWCT YMCA

Rediscover what it feels like to belong, move, and connect. During Try the Y Week (Oct 25–31), we invite you to enjoy free access to all our facilities, classes, and programs. No commitment, no cost — just come in and experience everything the Y has to offer.

What You Can Experience

We offer something for everyone — whether you’re just beginning or have been active for years. During Try the Y Week, you’ll enjoy:

  • Heated indoor pools — lap swimming, water fitness, family swim time

  • Group fitness classes — from yoga and Zumba to strength training and cardio

  • State-of-the-art fitness centers — modern equipment and space to reach your goals

  • Youth and family programs — classes, activities, and programs for children and teens

  • Ninja Training Center (Torrington branch) — where athleticism meets creativity

Join us and see how the Y brings community and wellness together.
