I like the different classes for exercises - hiit, strengthening, balance, and that the classes range for the various needs of the community. The Coach Approach program is my favorite. To have a coach to prepare workouts and provide feedback makes coming to the Y a pleasant experience.

Welcoming atmosphere.
Variety!
I like the classes that are offered, especially the cycle classes and all of the instructors I have had are excellent - they motivate and inspire you to challenge yourself. I also like the pool and the reservation system so I can be sure of getting a lane and/or sharing one.

The pool is very nice, always clean and usually a comfortable temperature. I especially like having the opportunity to reserve my lane. It's the most important thing to me. The locker room is kept clean and tidy.
