Everything
Great teachers and safe environment.
I love the small setting of the swimming lessons at the Y. Other programs pack in as many kids as possible and it's overwhelming. Holding only two classes at a time can be hard trying to get signed up quickly enough the experience is worth it.
Excellent swimming teacher. My grandson learned a lot!
It may not seem like much, but we get a very good work-out in the aqua-fitness classes. Good music, almost weightless, low stress stretching and resistance exercises - several times weekly.
Also, we make friends. Lots of chatter while we exercise. It is a good work-out and social activity.
I enjoy the aqua fit classes. It helps me move and keeps me mentally and physically motivated.
I do work outs on the machines for physical purposes. Very rewarding.
The pool is nice, the showers are very good, there is ample parking with easy access. I live in South Austin but enjoy swimming at North Austin Y when I have to be in that part of town.
I wish that MotionVibe reflected the actual hours the pool is open and not just the hours that require a reservation. Southwest Family Y, for instance, indicates "NoResNeeded" for pool activities that don't require a reservation. While regular users of the North Austin Y might be familiar with changes in the schedule, a member who is a casual user such as myself expects to find all the pertinent information about pool access in one place online. Thank you for considering that improvement to your service.
I like the ease of using the app to sign in for activities AND I like the water aerobic instructors. I'm glad I joined and look participating in the many activities offered.
Great facility! Really welcoming staff, great yoga classes!
Weights
Coming back after covid, I appreciate the spacing and the cleaning being done.
Excellent facilities, warm and welcoming staff, and affordable for all folks to live happy, healthy, and well.
Group exercises were great before pandemic. Haven’t been to one lately tho.
I really loved the layout of the gym and exercise areas. Also the big windows with natural light. Nice staff.
Clean, has all of the basic things that I am looking for, reasonable price
I like the pool for lap swimming and the hot tub afterwards.
Friendly people, quality equipment, and challenging group fitness classes!
I like the gym and lap swim.
Yoga class was great... facilities are beautiful. I am new to this Y, and love it so far.
It was a nice facility. Loved the women's locker room. The pool is kinda small, but I like that it's a pretty even depth all the way across. Our aqua-fit class was big, and we only had one lane, so people could go all the way to the end of the pool and still here Jennifer and be able to participate. My spouse loved the yoga space and the treadmills.
Lap swimming
Flexible schedules / scheduling. Cleanliness and facilities.
It's soooo much room! The workers there were so patient and so nice to me especially ShiLove. He waited for me to finish my workout. 5 min to closing time. Thankyou that is very encouraging to someone who needed it Thanks alot. It is also very clean. Which is great!
Love the pool for lap swimming and various aquatic classes.
Senior Fitness is an excellent new activity.
Lookin good!
I like the rowing machines, the classes, the weight machines and the pool. It’s a great community hub in North Austin. I also like the farmers market and community garden
Good selection for kids
Professionalism and experience of the staff and trainers.
Programs for older adults.
We have recommended the aquatic program to friends and family because the staff are wonderful! Engaging and Professional Teachers, Lifeguards, and Managing Staff are all kind, safety oriented, and great communicators.
My children are safer and happier because of their time in the aquatics program and without the staff, it just wouldn’t have been the great experience that it was.
