Convenient
Great place for people of all ages and fitness levels! I enjoy the Gentle Yoga class, my teenage daughter really likes the Zumba class. The schedule is such that we are each able to work out on Friday morning and then go to our respective classes and finish at the same time. :)
Classes
I love the welcoming nature of the YMCA. It is a strong community of kind and caring members and instructors. Thank you!
Friendliness of staff!
Especially Child Watch teachers :)
High quality and afforability
Sus istalaciones
There are many options, however I WISH there was a summer soccer league available at Southwest YMCA. This would be much more beneficial for my daughter instead of having to go to another one over 10 miles away!
We go to (and love) Claudette’s Fri evening yoga class. The room is too cold. Could you please adjust the thermostat?
My daughter started dance class yesterday and Miss Brianna is amazing!!!! Both of my kids enjoy their time in child watch when I go to class and we always have a blast st the pool.
There is a friendly atmosphere. The Ymca sponsors camps with disabilities . Not everybody looks like a olimpic star. The folks that run the Y are good humans.
The swimming lessons offer a variety of days and times, this is especially helpful to working parents. I would like to see the gymnastics classes be offered consistently at the Southwest Branch in Austin, TX. Thank you
Senior arthritis class with Joyce and Edwina.
I love the people and the classes. It feels like home, everybody gets to know you, you find new friends, and you can do everything there.
Youth programs and fitness classes
Love the outdoor pool and class options. Needs more aqua fit classes and parking other than that meets my needs
Mr Reed is amazing and patient and kind. First name removed has learned new exercises and made a new friend. We love the YMCA
love the outdoor lap pool
We love the SW Y for all our family!
Classes start on time
Wide diversity of classes
Outdoor pool open year round for lap swimming
I absolutely love the diverse offerings of classes and instructors. The facility is very family friendly and I never feel out of place. I can honestly say that I’ve met a set of men and women whom I would call “friend”. Great environment for networking and building relationships!
Friendly front personnel. Specifically Lauren, Chad, just to name a few....so sweet
I like how affordable and friendly the gym is.
My 9 year old loves childwatch, but I would request that all childwatches close at the same time. Friday nights, my younger 4 year old daughter’s childwatch ended at 6:00 and my son’s at 7:00. I arrived at 5:30, so I didn’t have much of a workout.
Also, the townlake ymca does lice checks before letting kids enter child-watch. I went to that location a few times, and I was glad they did that for all children to keep lice from spreading. Could the Southwest YMCA do lice checks too before kids come in to play?
More 8 and 8:30 am group work outs like Rocky's resistance. If Rocky is leaving that time, I sure hope you find a great replacement. Everyone loves that class.
More varied classes like barre and power vinyasa
These programs and activities are awesome, very adaptive for the kids and adults.
Love personal training with Christine Hinckle. Her empasis on healthy aging and attention to form make her my favorite trainer!
I like the overall atmosphere of the Y, it’s friendly and welcoming. The facility is clean and bright and NO loud music pounding away. Plenty of classes are offered along with very good exercise equipment. I especially Iike the many choices of activity for seniors and all ages.
Very glad I made the switch from a big box impersonal gymn!
