Love the Y. Wish you would open earlier on Sundays. There are dozens of folks waiting outside and for things with limited capacity (the pool) that cropwds everybody.
Excellent programs

And love the steam room after a workout...
Thank you
Love ymca!!!
I like that you have a large number of classes scheduled throughout the day, including classes that start at 7:15pm to allow for those who work later. This is extremely helpful for me since I work past 6pm.
I love masters swim!
every good
The staff, equipment, and maintenance.
Variety
I love the group ex classes. All of them. Yoga, cardio dance, zumba, pilates, strength training, CX works, spin... The teachers are excellent and they do a great job.
Qué siempre tienen actividades para los niños
I like the equipment maintenance, cleanliness of the facility (including locker rooms!), and proximity to my home.
Area for improvement: attention of front desk staff to members arriving, possibly needing help, and to surroundings in general. They often seem distracted.
I like the many choices and days and times. The place just has a good feel when you walk in.
I like the variety of programming, the welcoming atmosphere and the facilities themselves.
They are ADA Accommodating.
I like flexibility. I can participate as little or as much as I choose. A variety of classes. Ample exercise equipment and guidance as needed. Friendly staff.
Well trained instructors - especially Pilates
Many options; very flexible classes
The wide variety of equipment, the HOT TUB, and the people I meet.
Like the variety of classes and various times they are offered. Also like the people and family atmosphere of the Y.
Coach Chris is excellent and one of the best coaches our child has had in several years of Y lessons and swim team. He takes the time to teach the kids strokes and techniques, and he is really invested in motivating the swimmers to improve their individual skills, work together as a team, and instill a love of the sport. Thank you, Chris!
Your teachers are highly knowledgeable, respectful, careful, and prepared.
The YMCA feels like home. The community is glad to have you there and they’re so friendly and responsive to anything you need.
Lots of excellent programs scheduled throughout the day and week.
it is the neatest, most awesome of the Ys in Austin. I can't believe how nice it looks compared to the other branches that are smaller, the equipment less amazing, the space not as well distributed. Townlake YMCA is clearly where the well to do people go. Check it out! Don't waste your emotional energy trying to feel good in those other ones where there is a sense of institutional racism that scares you
Everything
Community and chikdwatch and classes
The diversity in age, gender, race, ethnicity, financial means, etc. of the people who attend. Also high quality instructors.
Excellent coaches, great aquatics coordinator, and swimming pools. I've been particularly impressed with coach Chris - my son has learned a lot from him, Chris is also very patient with young kids and makes the classes super fun. Rachel, the aquatics coordinator, is very responsive and accommodating - a joy to deal with.
Initially, we were not members but after our great experience, we've decided it was time to officially join the Y.
A beautiful facility, great instructors, very friendly atmosphere, so many classes and scheduled so you're sure to be able to get most of what you want when you want it, affordable and impromptu mostly musical events in the lobby and MORE! a TERRIFIC RESOURCE
Plentiful classes, nice facility
