Member Testimonials
This was my daughter's first time playing basketball, and the program and the coaches were perfect. She felt supported, she was given room to grow, and she felt like part of the team. Coach Ben and Coach Bart gave her incredible support throughout the season and really boosted her confidence and skill. And most importantly she had an absolute blast playing.
Professional, organized, nice facility

I love that the outdoor lap pool is heated for the winter and I can continue swimming laps. The cardio equipment area is well maintained.
Using the outdoor pool to lap swim, especially during covid, really made a difference in my life.

Really enjoy water classes!
Please upgrade showerheads in men’s locker room.
I like to use the weight machines and spinners. I plan to start attending spinning classes which I have enjoyed in the past. I was a member for twenty plus years (Houston, then Austin) and feel comfortable at the Y since it is used by all ages. In fact I learned to swim at the Y (sixty years ago). 😀
It’s small and friendly
I loved working with my fitness instructor, she taught me all the ways to help by body get stronger in the areas where I needed help.
The in door walk path is awesome because I suffer from allergies, and can't walk outside.
I like the Kid's play, outdoor swimming pool, sauna, and the fitness center.
And the kitchen area.
High quality teaching at an affordable price
I like yoga, Pilates, Nia, and chair strength.
Proximity, and good instructors
Thanks for asking!
1. It would be wonderful for Celeste to have a Wednesday morning class for Gentle Yoga.
2. Ban people from using cell phones while using the Resistance Machines.
3. Provide access to the front doors using BOTH doors and not just one.
Other than that - I really like the Southwest branch. The facilities are great and the staff is fabulous!

Great youth sports programs and an amazing childcare facility and staff!
