lessons and is renewable on an annual basis. These fees are in addition

Centers and Membership
We have many different centers across Middle Tennessee and Southern
Kentucky and each one is unique in its own way. With our
association-wide membership, you can discover for yourself the special
qualities that each center has and enjoy them all.
We also offer a center-only membership for those who qualify for the
Open Doors Income-based Rate Scale, for centers in remote locations,
and for centers in neighborhoods with special socio-economic status.
Center-only memberships are valid at that center only, but also provide
members with a program membership that may be used at any center within
the association.
Membership Assistance Program
The YMCA of Middle Tennessee is dedicated to keeping our programs and
services available to all, regardless of ability to pay. We offer
membership assistance through the Incomebased Rate Scale (IBRS),
a sliding fee scale for both facility and program members. IBRS
participants’ membership fees will correspond to their household income
level. Should your circumstances/situation change during the
course of your membership, please inquire as to how we
can help.
If you are currently receiving membership assistance through IBRS, you
will be required to reapply every year by your anniversary date. You
will receive a reminder and be asked to bring updated income
verification to the Y. This helps us continue to offer assistance to
others who may be in need.
Reduced rates through IBRS may also apply to certain programs such
as aquatics, gymnastics and youth sports. Please check with our Welcome
Center for a list of programs that are eligible for program assistance.
Memberships through IBRS are guaranteed the same quality of service as
full-pay members.
