Offers everything you need
Welcoming. Great Trainers—Especially Emma! Accessibility. Fabulous programs for seniors
The Y is a nice, well cared for facility that allows me to stay in some semblance of a good condition. The staff are friendly and helpful and the resources are plentiful. Now if I could just get my wife to join me in my workouts.
good variety of programming, class and equipment. Friendly staff.
Nice front desk. Good fitness instructors. Clean facility
Numerous classes, friendly staff, clean facility.
This Y is very clean and a lot of the equipment and resources I desire. Unfortunately there are frequently people using weight machines as places to take a prolonged rest, which degrades my experience
Great people who work there! Really friendly and helpful
Friendly front desk
WiFi
Good machines
Everything! The staff and instructors are extremely friendly and helpful. I cannot EVEN believe how all or mostly all of the equipment necessary for taking the classes, such as Les Mills classes, is provided! The variety is unreal! I get bored easily and love trying all the classes from Pilates to Zumba to CRX. And then all the amazing equipment, such as treadmills, elliptical machines, cycles, and weight training machines-WOW. I have had memberships at multiple gyms in several states, and the Platte County YMCA in Parkville is far and away the most user-friendly, comprehensive, state-of-the art facility I have ever used. And I haven't even started in on the amazing pools! They are awesome for workouts and the wade-in pool is ideal for when my grandkids want a day at the pool.
I could go on for days about all the many features. We even had my granddaughter's 5th birthday at the Y, with Mr. Science, and it was SUPER fun!!!!! I love the Y!
It provides all the services I want and need in one place.
The Y educates us on safe and smart exercise. It provides a place to meet people and share the journey of health and wellness. It gives me a place to walk and a place to read. The YMCA is like a small town where people respect others and leaders inspire us to stay motivated and safe. I am grateful for the YMCA in Parkville.
Super friendly staff!
It is full of happy people.
Clean lockers, pool, courteous, helpful & friendly staff!
Variety of machines
The instructors were great! They truly cared and managed to work with every child individually but also together within the entire group setting!
I really enjoy the classes offered.
I love the large variety of classes that are available as well as the large amount of pool space.
Offers a variety of classes.
The equipment is first class and the cleanliness incredible. Everything is always spot on. I was a member at Genesis Health Club but then Morgan the Jeweler suggested I come back to the Y and he was right. I saw him there yesterday, heaves about the Y.
Swim classes for my young kids are amazing. The childcare staff is so caring and my kids love going. I love the variety of classes offered. Body pump and RPM instructors are great. Love YMCA platte south.
Classes - effective and wide variety
Nice and clean
family friendly
It offers a lot of different aquatic programs and there is always open swim time.
A welcome atmosphere no matter what type of workout of why you are there.
Lots of classes and the variety of classes. It has an indoor track which is really nice. The Y near overland park does not have an indoor track - just a carpeted area around the cardio machines..
Only downside is that the tracking mechanisms on the bikes in the spinning classes are not compatible with most heart rate monitors.
The equipment is updated on a regular basis, the layout makes sense and the extra pool is perfect for lap swimmers.
Offer diverse activies for all levels
Love the instructors and great facilities. Could use a little more variety in classes however.
