Work out machines, hours, friendly staff. Would love more group exercise classes!
Leages for children in the area.
The refs are very encouraging during basketball
It's open, it's cheap (because my wife got it for me as a gift) and it's inclusive. Like I'm weak and out of shape but so is everyone so it's cool. I don't feel like it's a competition in the gym. I like that.
Remembers it's people
Great environment! Staff and gym-goers are friendly, warm, and open. It is a community. I go to the gym to lift heavy, so I don’t like to stand around chatting. But, I really like feeling welcomed and welcoming others. Conversations don’t have to be long to make an impact: They just have to be personal. And, that is what happens at the Y.
The facilities are very good for 90% of gym enthusiasts. Die-hard lifters and boxing cross-trainers may want additional facilities, but that population is relatively small.
Very friendly!
Great equipment clean facility
Friendly staff
I love the Y. I do the 5:45 a.m. work out, 2 days a week and it is a great way to start my day. I also do yoga one day a week.
Diversity, sports, equipment, Ms. Carter, Akila, LaTeef!
Provide good clean space to workout along with up to date equipment. The staff is always helpful.
Welcoming to all types of people - super fit, just starting out, old, young, white, color - doesn't matter -all are welcome!
I love the variety of classes at the cleaver Y. That doesn't mean I make it to very many, but it's nice to have a selection available to me when I'm able to go! Also, thanks for improving the kid area - it's much nicer.
Some feedback on your kids nights...about a year ago was the last time I took my kids. The idea of the program is genius. However, the event was chaotic and the staff did not seem very educated in working with kids. (I had to stay for a little while at the beginning b/c I helped get one of my shy kids acclimated before I left). While I was still there several staff members were chatting with each other instead of properly supervising the kids. I also have a concern that if staff are not educated there are too many areas of the building where something bad could happen - not just someone getting hurt, but also child molestation in a dark corner/room/bathroom, etc.
Accommodates people of all ages, genders,
Variety of fitness experiences, something for everyone.
Classes and daycare. Thank you!
I appreciate that the Y has acquired the extra equipment for members to use. I like that you have another room for the heavy weight equipment usage, freeing up more room in the main area too.
