Member Testimonials
Front desk folks are very friendly and welcoming. I love the pool and the hours are extensive. I have taken yoga classes which were good and used the workout space upstairs. I think it’s great and an asset to the the surrounding community.
Everything
Great facility and nice staff.
I like that it's not just something I can enjoy. My whole family loves the Y and all the events the Y host
The YMCA is friendly clean and has all the latest updated equipment! My personal trainer Kedrick is fantastic! His knowledge base is incredible and he has gotten me back on my feet after a double hip replacement. Thanks to him, I am able to do things I never thought would be possible again!
Responsiveness to my questions and concerns.
Variety of choices for exercise. Friendly and helpful staff
Best YMCA in the United States and I've travelled extensively. There is no place with a bigger variety and number of group exercise classes. I take Body Pump and it's offered at least 3 times a day!!! When I was in Florida, I couldn't find a single gym with that class more than 2 or 3 times a week. Likewise, in New Jersey very, very limited class schedule. And where can you find a place that offers classes on Sunday throughout the day and even at 4:30??? I can't speak highly enough of the West Chester Y and their instructors are all terrific!!
This is a perfect place that everyone should model themselves after.
I enjoy cycle and Zumba classes. This location is convenient and parking usually plentiful.
Exercise facilities, staff

I really like the variety of exercise classed that are offered. With the amount of classes and the different times that are available I can choose whatever that I want. The instructors are super and the staff at the front desk are very friendly.
The staff is helpful, friendly, professional and competent. Everyone from the front desk to the instructors to the maintenance team.

Your front-desk staff are so welcoming and friendly. The facility is always very clean. You have plenty of aerobic equipment; I never have to wait for a treadmill or an EFX machine. You have loads of space in the locker room; we don't have to maneuver for "bench space" in there. And your indoor pool is magnificent. Thanks for the opportunity to comment--that is another thing I like about the West Chester Y.
The folks at the front desk are terrific. As are the fitness instructors. Makes you feel like family.
All the Les Mills classes- but you HAVE to CHANGE the website and be able to view the monthly calendars for workouts!
Facility is clean. Everyone is friendly. No Loud music blaring on a PA system. Equipment in good condition.
You seem actually interested in me - that is really nice!
Friendly staff and instructors
I like the variety of group exercise classes and the frequency they are offered throughout the day. Sometimes I can maintain a streak of being really focused on my fitness and in tiptop shape, so I want to do Cross Training and serious Body Pump. Other times, I have let my fitness slide and need to start back with the "basics" of Gentle Yoga and Lite Strength. Either way, the classes the Y offers have me covered, and I can choose to be there early in the morning, midday, or just on the weekend. There is always something that works for me!
It's convenient to where I live, and it has almost all the equipment that I need to do my exercising and some Physical Therapy I'm currently undergoing. Also the facility and equipment are kept very clean and orderly.
Especially like the 10 lane competitive swimming pool which is focused on the needs of swimmers.
I like the flexibility of going to several Ys to get my exercise schedule in. Generally the Ys are very clean and the instructors are all very good.
My main Y is Kennett Square - the folks there are super nice. I really like the instructors too but I certainly don't like taking so many classes in the gym that really should be in a smaller room. One important part of exercise is making sure you have the correct form to avoid injuries - impossible to do in the big gym and also the little gym. Also getting weights out of one small room in the gym is chaotic with that set-up. Both Jennersville and West Chester have bigger rooms (and better air circulation as well). Their staff is excellent too.
Thank you for putting some fans in the big gym in KS, the smaller gym needs it too. Getting some more clips for weights that are easy to use would be a plus too for KS as classes are big.
West Chester has the best schedule of classes. It sure would be a plus if there were a few more classes of popular classes (Zumba, body pump) at KS or Jennersville too.
Everything-very best healthy community center !

I enjoy everything about the "Y" friendliness, helpful, all the equipment to work out on. I enjoy friends I have made there. I love my swim group onThursday afternoon. IF anyone finds fault with the "Y" it is their problem not the "Y". Keep up the good work. I do recommend the "Y" to my friends all the time
