Member Testimonials

I appreciate that the staff is Very friendly, the facility is super clean and that the swim instructor’s really care about the kids they are teaching

Miss Cindy is great. My 2 year old has learned a lot from this class.

A lot of options for workouts, the staff is friendly and helpful, the facility is very clean

The resources are there to do my workouts

Nice variety of classes; and good instructors who remember you from class/session to next and provide instruction on alternative movements if one is limited. overall clean facility.

I like how the Y has been so responsive to the Covid issues. I feel comfortable returning and am pleased to see that most are adhering to the safety issues. I'll be happy when reservations aren't needed for programs. I tend to be "spur of the moment".

pool availability

I love the classes. I would love to see a TRX class and a kick boxing class offered at the Kennett Square location.

Friendly staff

Exercise machines with multiple options

I love the water aerobics in the warm pool. Right now this is the only exercise I do, as per my Orthopedic adviser.

I really appreciate the easy availability of lap lanes without having to share a lane.

Love the gym.

I haven’t participated in any of the programs yet, but I enjoy walking the track and swimming in the pool.

Love this ymca

It’s available while Jennersville is shut down. It’s clean with good space / equipment.

I like most everything about the Y. Good members, great staff, clean, good equipment. One thing I wish the way what a dress – – masks should be required of everyone, even while exercising.

I love the lap pool! It’s the only reason I go to the Y. I used to use the rowing machines and other aerobic machines as well pre-Covid, but am not comfortable being in that big room with others all huffing and puffing, despite me being fully vaccinated. Still, the lap pool alone is worth my monthly fee. I’ve learned when to be there so that I get my own lane….the social distancing feels safe.

Facility was clean and well equipped.

Given the current situation, I believe the Y is doing a fabulous job. Although class selection may be somewhat limited, there is still enough and something for everyone. Our instructors and staff are the best.

I love the group exercise classes, especially cycle strength!! The energy of the instructors and fellow classmates lifts me up and gets me excited to exercise. I don’t create a lot of time in my daily schedule to take care of myself. When I take a group exercise class I feel like I’m caring for my physical body and socializing at the same time.

I don’t like the fact that the jennersville Y is renovating until the middle of January and now that the Covid virus is increasing and more people are being condensed in the Kennett Y . This was not an optimum time to do renovations I don’t like that there are no more fans allowed in the Y . I know there is supposedly a new air filtration system installed , but there is no air movement at all, and when the Y is crowded , there needs to be air movement.

The facilities are fully equipped and pristine clean, and the staff makes you feel welcome. Plus, the members are open and friendly. The availability of pickle ball is exceptional. The Kennett Square YMCA compares favorably with private clubs.

Clean and friendly facility

Very much appreciate the expanded pickleball program. Pickleball players used to feel like an annoyance to the Y.

I am beyond impressed with the facility. There is a a wide variety of equipment that is always in working order. The facility is incredibly clean and well maintained. The staff is courteous and friendly. I appreciate the fact that the staff is required to wear masks. I do wish the same mandate was in place for members; at the very least in the weight rooms. Keep up the good work!

Easy to schedule with app, instructors are friendly and personable, meet skill level of participation

How extensive the offerings are, how light and clean the place is, how friendly the staff is, how the branch stays current with exercise needs, ETCETERA!!

I like the cardio machines and there are plenty to choose from!

Love the swim team! That is the only reason we are members of the Y.
