Member Testimonials
Love the Water Aerobics program. Love how friendly everybody is. Love how clean everything is. Love the instructors. Love that I have choices.
Excellent teachers & programs that meet my needs.
Basketball area for my teens, cardio area for myself and teen daughter, childcare for my littles. We're excited about learning more about exercise classes and the outdoor pool opening for summer!
My thing is the water aerobics classes. As a woman in her 70’s it’s my favorite way to stay in shape. The instructors are great. I also like the walking track, weights and free exercise area. If my ortho approves I’ll try pickle ball. The best though is that my insurance pays for it all!!
I like the exercise classes. Lois Chisolm is especially helpful.
Many options
Yog and can't wait for the pool to open.
There are so many different classes available, and the teachers are fantastic.
We enjoy the various machines available, and we especially enjoy the walking track. The staff at the Y is always available if we have questions or problems with any machines.We also enjoy seeing friends at the Y and I hear we may have a puzzle group soon, and maybe a book club! Great!

Our Canton YMCA is very clean, and organized. The instructors are fun and stay in the game using their experience. The class schedules make it easy to attend with any personal schedule you might have. It brings a smile and joy to everyone seeing all holidays celebrated with events and decorations. Most employees are very eager to please and go out of their way to accommodate. I do believe, like any intuition the younger employees do not see the purpose in engaging with the simplest of social interaction, this does not apply to all of them, and I don't take offence. However it would be a growing and learning opportunity for them to see the benefit of friendly human interaction, and good manners because the result is so uplifting for us all. Thank you for all you do!
