Welcoming atmosphere. Nice variety of equipment. Beautiful indoor pool.

They have options for all age groups. However, I wish the younger kids weren’t always scheduled at 9am. Since they didn’t typically begin until 9:15 anyway.

This Y branch offers lots of different activities for all age groups and interests. Plus, if that is not your thing then there is still lots of equipment and open facilities for you to use.

The Instructors are informed, welcoming, patient, and friendly, too

Comprehensive array of activities for all ages. Friendly and helpful staff.

First name removed Chai

Friendly staff and members made me feel welcome.

Love the instructors Kim B and Mary Lai! They are inspiring, knowledgeable and fun people with big hearts. They make it a pleasure to work out!

The Kennett YMCA staff and programs they offer are wonderful. I have my own routine for swimming and exercising and it meets my needs.

Diverse amounts and types of programs that are very well run!

Group fitness instructors are so good at encouraging us without shaming us. Really great group. Front desk people always welcoming and I really love the free coffee. :)

I love the Montessori program that my grandson attends. The staff is always engaged with the children when I pick him up at the end of the day. He is generally having so much fun that he wants to stay longer.

I take advantage of the warm water pool as well as the main pool to keep fit.

The cleaning and sanitizing crew is very visible and their efforts much appreciated.

The desk staff and teachers are friendly and helpful.

Gold stars for our lovely Kennett Y.

The instructors are top notch. I love their enthusiasm and caring attitudes. They are now my friends as well. The Y is always trying new classes and that gives us a chance to leave our comfort zones and have more fun.
I will be forever grateful to the aerobic swim class at Kennett, formerly taught by Leslie Brennan, which I participated in for 3+ years. After 3 months I could walk without pain as my hip arthritis had eased and now 5 years later I rarely feel it.
For me, Rosie's Aqua Fit class at Jennersville is the best class I've ever taken for getting my heart rate going and experiencing fun and friendship amongst members, It's a very special time.
On Monday and Wednesday at Kennett, Natalie's Gentle Yoga class helps me to center and focus on my spiritual self. She's a wonderful, joyful person!
I must give a shout out to the incredible, dedicated cleaning crew at Kennett, Our locker rooms and facilities sparkle. They need to get credit and recognition for giving 100%.

Everything

I enjoy and I think I benefit from the programs offered at the Y. I usually take the group sessions offered in the morning and they are varied enough to keep me interested.
Distressingly I haven't gone to the Y for a while now due to the omicron variant even though I know that rules are in place to avoid the spread of the disease.
I'm hoping to start again soon.

If you have young kids, you need the YMCA in your life. The child watch staff are loving and attentive. They are down on the ground playing with the kids; my kids love them.

I can’t say enough good things about the Kennett Square YMCA. It’s my happy place. I never dread going to the Y, like I have other gyms in the past. I love that the group exercise classes are included in the monthly membership, it’s really a fantastic value.

We've had a great experience with basketball. Ms. Nancy was helpful, kind and encouraging.

Collaboration and participation.

The 9/10 year old winter basketball program was wonderful! Perfectly run with great coaches, parents, and kids. They let the kids play while teaching at the same time. Weekly schedules were sent out and very organized. We will definitely be playing again!

The instructors are amazing and so warm and welcoming. We loved class. Hoping to do the next one.

My daughter has improved significantly in acclimating to water since starting the class.

I have been playing Pickleball both inside and outside over the past 8 months. I met some new members and made some new friends as well!

Great!!!!
