Member Testimonials
Clean, well maintained facility. Friendly and helpful staff.
Friendly staff and members, great instructors (especially Mary Lai, Jay, Richard, and Josh).
Great staff and great options for staying in shape. Lot's of variety with regards to equipment and classes
Dear Kennett YMCA,
Due to joints and old injuries, I have a difficult time with normal exercise programs and using equipment. I signed up for the water aerobics classes (deep water) more than two years ago. I am not a swimmer, nor did I think I would like being in a pool.
I absolutely love coming now! I totally enjoy how Leslie caters to our group of ladies knowing we need to keep moving. She is so upbeat and caring. She keeps everyone coming back for more!!
Thank you!
Laura
Just all the amenities and the helpful staff
The variety of classes. Friendly staff
Place where all ages of our family can enjoy.
I was in my YMCA to obtain information about my health insurance, Silver Sneakers and my membership. Gail was VERY helpful and answered all my questions and took care of adjusting my membership. She is very knowledgeable and happy!
Everything - the staff, the hours, how the building looks and it’s cleanliness, the wonderful pool and the number of lanes available, the parking...
The ONLY negative is that my husband and I both used to be members at Kennett for years. You got rid of a bike he likes, the Expresso, and didn’t replace it. The Delaware Ys have it and it’s a great, although probably expensive, machine. He drives an extra 10 minutes each way to get to the Y in Delaware to use that machine. It’s regrettable that you don’t have it. So that’s been the only bummer, that we as a couple can’t belong to the same Y.
The friendly staff, the programs offered and the machines.
Love the facility and all the equipment. Only suggestion I would make is to have more treadmills and less bikes. Seems like there are always dozens of open bikes but treadmills are always filled.
Literally, everything.

It’s clean and friendly
I like the fact that I can go to lotvof facilities around me. I wish I could even go to rocky run which is currently not in network.
The staff is kind and so are the clients. The building is kept clean.
Excellent experienced staffed !!
1. Lots of high quality equipment and flexible hours make the Y an easy and enjoyable experience to visit, to stay fit.
2. Friendly and knowledgeable staff enhance the enjoyment of my visits, never far away but not intrusive, and very helpful when needed. They make sure to know the members on a first name basis, which makes me feel appreciated as a member.
3. My family's membership experience is a pretty good value for the cost.
4. I feel good about supporting the Y's mission of improving the quality of life of all members of our community. I wish more people knew how much we do for those who need our help.
5. The Y is the Heart of Kennett Square.
Friendly staff members
Love the Y. The body pump class with Lisa is spectacular. Wish there were 1-2 lanes open for general lap swim on the evening. It often feels like a children's swim class is happening every night.
The Feldenkrais Awareness Through Movement classes are invaluable. Christine is a truly gifted instructor. As a physical therapist, I find the lessons gleaned from her classes not only help me personally but also improve my treatment of patients. This program is the main reason I attend the Y.
Friendly people, clean, modern equipment, helpful staff.
It is so easy, pay a monthly fee and enjoy the facilities with so much to offer! And wonderful employees too!

Machines are well maintained. Staff is courteous. Building is generally clean. One suggestion is that you dust fans daily. I come in early and some fans are loaded with dust.
