Pickleball hours and swimming

Great, caring group exercise instructors

Varied and easily accessible.

Aqua exercise classes later in the morning (10:15 am classes), gentle yoga, lit fit classes, and pickle ball.
Need more hours in child watch please

I would like to see more classes around two thirty three o'clock. I get done work around two, and it is easier for me to go to class right after work, instead of coming home for a couple of hours, and then going back out to take a class.

Positive & friendly staff

I have only been to three classes so far since signing back up on 5/17/21. Recognized a few faces, which was nice. No additional comments at this time.

I really enjoy the groups classes. The instructors are very friendly, knowledgeable, motivating and provide specific instructors for proper form. So much fun and great workouts.

Just started pickle ball. The instructor is so helpful and looking forward to another fun activity at the y. So glad to be back after covid!

We would welcome evening pickle ball times. We currently play Friday nights (7-8:30pm) at Penn Oaks and have a blast inviting neighbors and friends join us. The daytime schedule is difficult to plan, and it is such a social game that evenings are better than cocktail hour!!

I think if the Y is going to resume the full pre-pandemic billing rate, you also resume the full pre-pandemic club hours, open until 10 PM on weekdays and open until 7 pm on weekends.

Yoga Flow was exactly what I was looking for in a class environment

Pickle ball courts are amazing!!!

Pool

It's really family. The whole atmosphere is uplifting. Everyone is working towards a goal of fitness, and the staff is always there to encourage and brighten up the time, even if they are not directly engaged in your program.

It's just a mentally, physically and emotionally healthy place to be!

I really enjoy the group x at umly and am looking forward to trying pickle ball. As more people return I look forward to more group x options during the daytime hours.

Cleanliness, spacing of equipment and friendly staff

Varied, responsive to current health and safety issues,

Would like more 9 am classes for seniors. Otherwise you are on the right track. D. Little.

Great instructors and friendly, helpful staff and other members.

I do love the pickleball tournament and swimming lessons here.

Pickle ball. Swimming. Just working out.

I walk the track and exercise using the machines

I played my first pickleball games today, which was great - enjoyed the competition and the people, as expected.

Also, other than wearing a mask in the public areas, NO masks worn on beautiful new courts in the gym, which we all applauded. (and everyone I played with was vaccinated, as well)

You have a great variety of activities and ample facilities for your members. It is very rare that I have to wait for a machine or a swimming lane or any other service you provide. Keep up the good work.

Great! Good organization and everybody respect the social distancing also wearing masks.

Group exercise classes, Chile watch, PNO, camps, family activities

Outdoor classes and the instructors (Kelly M, Kelly J, Suzi B, Claire, Jay A, Mike L, Mary L, Megan L, Diana H are my favorites)

I like that the West Chester YMCA at Airport Rd employees always make the members feel like family.

It’s a great Ymca. I actually prefer it to the Lionvilke Ymca. I live closer to it but prefer the West Chester Ymca. The people are very pleasant and it makes a huge difference.
