Member Testimonials
Friendly and helpful staff. A variety of programs at many fitness and interests levels.
We like everything thing about it! The staff is wonderful, the programs meet our needs, and we love the positive energy at the Y!
We switched over from Chester County soccer to Y soccer this spring, and overall it was a great experience, but not due to the Y being amazing. We had NO coach!!?? The season was a success due to two other Dads stepping up to coach the kids after we decided no Y coach was coming. I did not receive any communication from the Y about this at any time. There was a Y ref who did a great job, showed up, and in the end handed out medals to the kids. I just think it was weird no coach ever came.
Dedicated, fun, and up beat instructors for the group classes. You are aways made to feel welcome, never care if you are running in late or have to leave early. The people who go to the Y are a great community of people. You can always find some friends at the Y in Kennett. It is a fantastic representation of what the community of Kennett is about: Safe, inclusive, friendly, and inviting.
I like the selection of classes to go to.
Don't know much about them. I just come to the gym. I like the overall atmosphere - safe, clean, friendly, comfortable.
Specifically, my 10 yr old daughter has been in swimming lessons and spring soccer recently. The last 2 swim instructors have been excellent, giving the attention and instruction to my daughter that has challenged her, made her a better swimmer and made the lessons fun.
The spring soccer both this past spring and last spring have been wonderful. Coach Brennan Bradley is a blessing! He teaches the kids the game of soccer, instructs them well, teaches them "team" concepts like communication, encouraging one another and respect. He is enthusiastic and fun and has the kids playing like a real team! My daughter has really enjoyed being on Coach Brennan's team....can't wait until next spring!
I only use the gym . I enjoy all the cardio equipment and weights
I would like to say that the programs and activities are suitable for the different ages of each one of the members and, above all, that you can breathe, an atmosphere of trust, respect and harmony.
Friendly staff, group classes, personal training, facility is great!

Exercise classes
Love the swim team!
Love the Parents Night Out
Our family loves the swim team, especially the coaching staff who cheer loudly for all swimmers and encourage everyone to support one another. Coach Kelly motivates swimmers to swim faster than they ever thought. She teaches proper technique, good sportsmanship, respect and leadership skills.
I like the people who work at the Y, and I like the diversity of Y members. It’s a clean and happy place. The y is very welcoming!
It sounds trite, but what I like best about the KYMCA is the genuine sense of caring community. I’m part of something that’s good for me, and good for my community.
Good child Care staff

Pickelball
Variety
I like that I can warm up for 15 minutes by shooting baskets. Or, if the court is not a available, I run a quarter mile. Then I lift weights.
Good advice from staff on setup of machines.
The quality of the instructors is so impressive. They really know what they are doing and provide lots of variety in the classes.
Swim team continues to be an excellent activity for my 3 children. They are all different but coaches work with and support each of them as individuals.
I’d particularly single out Kelly Burk. She has been wonderfully encouraging to my youngest child and really helped her progress and build confidence in the water and out of it. I can’t overstate how important Y swimming and Kelly have been to my family.
I'm biased. I love everything about the Kennett Y.
