Member Testimonials
Staff friendly.
Cleanness.
But need more evening classes.
Would like the Y to send out evaluation/feedback for the members to evaluate all class instructors. Some are not providing the appropriate level of fitness for the specific classes. That’s the main reason I would have reservations to recommend this Y to my neighbors. Thanks.
Ability to reserve a lane in the pool. Friendliness of the staff. Staff takes its responsibility seriously.
The friendly staff and accessibility to all workout machines.
The chair yoga classes are my favorite because of the quality of the instructor and the benefit I receive. I am grateful for the care to provide a safe fitness facility.
There is something special for everyone! Lots of individuals to render help and assistance too all!
Yoga, track and swim.
Convenient
Clean and well maintained.
Lots of equipment and knowledgeable instructors.
I love that the Y has been extremely proactive in stopping the spread of Covid-19, while also keeping the Y open for members. Heart disease, along with other preventable illnesses and conditions, are also threats to folks' health. It's not a choice of fighting one or the other: we need to prevent the spread of Covid while also keeping our hearts and muscles healthy. Plus our mental states!
With the safety protocols in place (temp checks, questionnaire, deep cleaning, plexiglass), I can do both. I'm so grateful to the Y for all the extra work during the last 15 months. Also, I appreciate that lately the questionnaire is shortened a little. I've had both my shots since January. While I don't mind masking up each time I visit, I wonder if the questionnaire could be eliminated entirely at this point? We all know all the answers. If folks are going to ignore their symptoms and show up to exercise anyway, I don't think the questionnaire is going to stop them.
Great workout machines in gym... availability of personal trainers and fitness helpers and "coaches" if you will... clean facility... good array of fitness classes (although I wish you had more classes that I like, such as Pilates, at the end of the workday and after the dinner hour at Fowler)... very nice people who work at Fowler... good pool (wish it was WARMER however!!!)... very close to my home... affordable.
Everything. Would be nice to have the fans back.
Weight room, walking track and wellness coaches.
The spin classes are great. Please do not remove any more of them.
The gym is what I use most
I really only use the pool at this point, but I do intend on using the weights from time to time. I got my mom to start coming to the Y, and it makes me happy to see her enjoying the water aerobics and chair yoga and all the rest that she does there.
Variety of group exercise classes offered.
The Y is amazing. The online and video classes are very inclusive. Great staff, clean and variety of classes keep me going.
Love the water aerobics classes and pickleball.
Very Clean facility and equipment environmentally safe, great community value.
I like everything
I LOVE to play pickleball at the Fowker YMCA!! I enjoy the weights and the yoga classes. Kendra and Shane have been assets to the organization. Paige Blair is a tremendous leader for the pickleball program and keeps the Y's best interest in all decisions. Lin Roy has a following in yoga and wish more classes could be added. Beth Girmay's program allowed me to lose over 100 pounds, get in shape and enjoy life more. Mr & Mrs Song do their jobs better than anyone I have ever known. They take great care of us.
THANK YOU YMCA!!!
Spinning and instructor Ric. Body pump and instructor Virginia!
Plenty of programs for seniors. Well planned, good leaders. Worth joining and participating
I went back to my spin class 2 days ago after 14 months due to the pandemic. I was impressed by the social distancing and limited class size as well as fans and open doors. Thank you for your efforts to keep us safe.
Great water aerobics!
Near as I can tell, you have all the programs and activities back up and running again. I'm not sure only because I'm recovering from surgery and can only take advantage of a couple offerings.
New booking system for the pool.
Have not participated in programs and activities, I just enjoy the pool and Peloton bikes. The people are fantastic and a refreshing change from the front desk staff at other gyms. You all do a wonderful job and have wonderful people!
I feel safe with the protocols you have in place for your members. I am just returning after a "pandemic hiatus" since March, 2020! I went to Lin's yoga class Friday & will attend today as well. I missed her and I missed the Y. It feels good to be back!
