I love the parent-child swim classes
Lots to chose from. Hours convenient to everyone
Great classes, friendly staff, pleasant facility.
I like the swimming pool best. It's temperature-controlled and has good open hours for lap swimming.
The spin classes need help. Send the instructors to visit the Houstonion for a couple of days to see how it's done well. I feel sure the Houstonion would be glad for the YMCA instructors to visit for a while. A couple of tips: instructors should always begin and end class on time and should know how to operate the AV equipment without taking 5 minutes of class time to figure it out. Do all classes indoors; you have a good room for it.
The variety of activities is excellent; I haven't tried them all, or anything approaching them all, but the listing looks very good.
The locker rooms could stand improvement. Furnish towels. I know, it would cost more, but do it anyway and raise the monthly tariff. Keep locker rooms clean and don't let the floors get wet and slippery.
Aquatics and ease of commute
I love the yoga and Pilates classes, love how friendly and welcoming everyone is, love the diversity of the membership at the Y and how it is accessible to people with fewer resources, and just generally love the vibe. It's one of Austin's true gems.
Excellent instructors and front desk employees, well-rounded programs, a class for everyone, always very clean and tidy. I have been coming for over 10 years and I have never had a bad experience!
My thanks to all!
The Y has high-quality yoga classes with excellent instructors. The fitness equipment is plentiful and well-maintained. The facilities are clean and well-managed.
I only had classes. I started by joining Senior Fit class and Les Mills Body Pump on Tuesday and Thursday at 10:15 am, as I need to build muscles and strengthen my bone density. I love the classes Les Mills Body Pump and Core thought by Karin. She is a great instructor and a kind person. When she was away, the substitute instructors are also very good.
I had to stop the Senior Fit class as 3 days in a row was a bit too much.
Would love to try other classes for improving my balance like Taichi, unfortunately, it is only offered on the same schedule as my Les mills Body Pump class.
Would be wonderful to have more Taichi classes at different days, like Monday or Wednesday.

Everything
The variety of weight machines and cardio machine options. They even have the stretch/pilates machines (which I do not know how to use). I love the 2 saunas and use them every time (if there is room). Only things that could be better would be newer machines where I could use an app to track my workouts.
I like the friendly helpful staff. I like the warm pool for me to do my exercises in.
The pool is fabulous. Pickleball was great, especially in the heat.
