Member Testimonials
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
Inclusivity, close to home
great coaches
Group exercise classes! So fun!
I like that swim classes are very affordable and also it is a very good timed class. Not too long and most importantly not too short.
My personal trainer Alicia has made a fantastic impact on my life. She's given me an incredible set of tools to take with me on my fitness journey, was flexible with scheduling, and always a delight to be with. I would absolutely recommend her services to anyone I know!
Every thing
Group Excercise Classes
Paula and someof the other trainers there are incredible and so nice. They really listen to what your ailments are and provide a proper game plan to achieve your goals.
Love the group exercise classes
The people!
I loved how laid-back but informative my swim class was! I learned so much but still felt like I was able to relax in my workout for the day. Also loved how inclusive the class was!
Variety of classes
I love the pool the most and I also love the ellipticals (thanks for repairing the tv on them). Only request I have is for the lockers in the men's room to be fixed please. Half of them are not able to support a lock to secure them.
I love the building and the staff. The building is so uplifting and the staff is very friendly. Love yoga too!
Programs and activities work for me and my family.
Personal Trainer Paula is AWESOME!
I’m really enjoying my personal training experience with Paula and finding it useful in improving my overall fitness!
Many options; very flexible classes
