Member Testimonials
My homeschooling family often visits the Olathe YMCA on weekdays in the early afternoon to exercise. We appreciate the family-friendly atmosphere.
The Y offers multiple resources for us to build our physical strength, including classes, swim lessons, and equipment. In addition, there are ample opportunitues for us to volunteer to build our character.
My family has developed friendships with the staff and other members. We look forward to our visits. The Olathe YMCA is a place to grow and thrive.
Friendly atmosphere
I enjoy the YMCA because of the varied classes you can attend, along with very pleasant staff, and relaxed atmosphere.
Friendly staff, I happen to mostly use the pool so can't speak much for the exercise floor and equipment.
I'm also a senior and enjoy a lot of the experiences that are offered to us. Don't participate in many of the trips because they are too long for my energy level. For instance, when a trip was planned to the Steamboat Arabia Museum and the Titanic exhibit in one day, I would have enjoyed them one at a time, but both is too much for me. Many folks go, so obviously it does work for a lot of people, just not those of us who are older.
I also wish that somehow the pool temp could be maintained at a more consistent level. Seems like it is too often that there is one problem or another.
Sorry, you asked what I like and I gave you several things that I don't like. Just my honest feelings.
I enjoy the YMCA because it’s such a welcoming and comfortable place to work out. The facility is clean and there’s a good variety for whatever kind of workout I’m doing that day. They have a variety of classes to choose from. I also really appreciate the friendly atmosphere—staff and members are kind and it just feels easy to be there. It’s a place where I can stay consistent and feel good working out.
Convenience of location, quantity of equipment, cleanliness of both equipment and facilities; last and not least, the helpfulness and knowledge of the staff.
The friendly knowledgeable staff, the ability to work out any time I want (Olathe 24/7) and the great classes!
What’s not to like? The classes, the instructors, the staff, trainers and kids zone are all top notch. Everyone is so dedicated and encouraging. I could go on - but I’ll just leave it with it’s the most motivating health environment I’ve been in as an adult and the community is unmatched!
good facilities and friendly people.
very knowledgeable instructors that make exercise enjoyable.
Close to our house and water exercise classes for seniors.

The people, classes, and equipment.
It's a very good experience. The staff is very, very helpful and always Respectful.
We stopped in for an hour between grandchilds soccer games. It was clean, not too busy, and well laid out.
It has everything I need! I love that the childcare with the family membership is incredibly affordable and not an extra cost per kid- this was what made my family join! The staff is the most friendly and personable than any other gym I’ve been a part of. The only thing I wish was different was I wish childcare opened back up at 3:30pm instead of 4:30
Connie Greeley's line dance classes.
The people who work the desk, teach classes and personal trainers there are all exceptional. Their cheerfulness makes my day. Michelle Leifert's enthusiasm is contagious and I enjoy all the classes I take from her.
The feeling of community. The employees and customers are all nice.

Friendly staff!
Sandy enjoys the senior exercise class both for the physical exercise and for the socialization with others. The lap pool is my favorite and is top notch.
I like you have weight machines, not just free weights.
The instructors are top notch, and the selection of classes is wonderful. In general , the people are very friendly, staff and customers alike. I think being a Y makes the gym more approachable.
I would like to mention that over the last several months , most of our clocks have been taken down. We used to have four easy-to-read clocks on the workout floor, one on the center of each wall. The room is big, but you were always able to read one of the four , no matter which way you were facing or in what area. Now we have one down at the far end and a tiny digital on one of the longest walls, which cannot be easily read from an angle or from a distance. If the digital was bigger , it might actually be more helpful. And they took away the clock in classroom A.
Classes, friendly and encouraging instructors!! It's also a great place to meet new people or workout with friends.
Friendly people.
Different opportunities for exercise.
Friendly people to greet us. Clean and very easy to use the machines. Great programs to join.
I just recently started going to group fitness classes and all the Instructors noticed I was new and came up and introduced themselves to me. It was really nice of them to do that and it made me feel more comfortable about going,
Great staff, teachers and classes. Very friendly and supportive atmosphere
