YMCA 360 Studios

YMCA 360 Studios, Inc. (YMCA 360) is a social services organization dedicated to supporting the mission of the YMCA, which puts Christian principles into practice through programs that promote healthy lifestyles, strong families and positive youth development to build health spirit, mind and body for all. YMCA 360 does this via our on-demand video platform, designed to bring to life the people, places and programs of the YMCA. YMCA members can experience healthy living for all, wherever they are, whenever they want. YMCA 360 is formed as a charitable and educational organization within the meaning of Internal Revenue Code (IRC) §501(c)(3). YMCA 360 is formed to further the YMCA's charitable core mission in the digital age and to address societal changes where gathering in large groups in public spaces may not be allowed due to local ordinances or orders through development of, and ongoing creation of content for, the YMCA 360 digital platform. YMCA 360 is available to members of all participating YMCAs, through a variety of platforms: * Website, located at: www.ymca360.org * Streaming services such as AppleTv, AndroidTV and Roku * An InStudio platform that YMCAs can install in their facilities with an iPad and AppleTV device * Mobile app via Apple and Android Users receive access to YMCA 360 as part of their membership to their local YMCA. YMCA 360 can also be purchased as a standalone service through a local YMCA, providing access to the digital platforms plus limited YMCA facility services, depending on the YMCA member's location. At the end of 2023, there were approximately 165 YMCAs from across the U.S. that were providing YMCA 360 to their members. YMCA 360 expands the charitable reach of the YMCA by providing access to YMCA activities to all members - free of charge - anywhere, anytime. New members joining a YMCA can experience classes at home before trying them out in a facility. Members traveling for work can stay physically active and connected to their local instructors while traveling or during a time when local rules and ordinances may prohibit in person gatherings. Active older adults who may be unable to visit their local YMCA can still be active at home. Volunteer coaches can learn sports drills to help with coaching their youth sports teams. Youth who may be educated at home can supplement their education or stay physically active through youth-oriented classes. YMCA 360 allows the YMCA to connect with its members wherever they are located. Content offered on the platform consists of a wide variety of programs, designed to supplement the same programs offered by YMCAs at their physical locations. Therefore, content includes, but is not limited to: * Fitness and group exercise activities (for all age groups) * Youth sports drills, education, and training; * Nutrition classes; * Parkinson's support; * STEM activities for youth; * Visual and performing arts; and * Mental health and wellbeing activities. Again, this is just a short list of the overall available educational and health-related programming provided through local YMCA's and the YMCA 360 programming.
