Variety of the amenities.
Always the best never any issues, if something is wrong they will make it better or find the answers
Programs for everyone at different hours.
There are a variety of program and activities for all ages.
Well designed group exercise programs.
Great equipment and classes
I like the facility and the equipment that the Y has to offer. I wish the ymca offered discounts for all senior citizens, on Medicare.
Your coach approach is fabulous (so is my coach Elizabeth) and, when I come in and forget how to get something set up, all the staff is very willing and gracious to explain things AGAIN to me.
I also take the 9:15 yoga classes on Saturday and always feel so much better afterwards.
I really like your treadmills with the nice “walks” all over the world which I will probably start using more as the cold weather sets in.
All in all, a pleasant place to be while getting yourself back into good shape.
Beautiful facility Hours open especially early morning hours for people who work. One concern is the increasing difficulty reserving a swimming lap lane at Northwest Family YMCA. Getting a reserved lane is competitive and even lanes 1 and 2 where reservations are not required can be full. I do not agree with the policy of allowing one person to reserve double lanes especially when there may not be enough lanes for everyone. I was told they can if there is a special reason like having the pads on their hands when they swim. I think the person should be told he would have to share if there were not enough lanes for everyone and I don't think this person will share if it came down to it from his responses We pay monthly fees like everyone else and should not have to worry about a place to swim when we go Actually I think we should go back to not having reserved lanes like we did before the Pandemic. We always managed to share back then

I appreciate that there are more “coach approach” friendly classes than ever before. I love the coach approach efforts and the offering of food for life program. I really appreciate that the Y has closed its swimming lessons to non members. It was too crowded in the gym with non paying members and hard to get into classes. I also appreciate how they now have sign ups for swim at the first of the month. A MUCH easier understanding of when and how to get on that roster.
Variety
Friendly, flexible and a variety of classes
The variety of the classes. Water aerobics is really fun.
Staff are outstanding the instructors are helpful and the camaraderie between the members. That’s great.
Nice set up with easy access to resources like the pool, treadmills, weights. Friendly staff are very much appreciated.
The class instructors are absolutely the best! I love the classes. The people who work at the front desk are always so friendly and helpful, always greeting members with a smile and a hello and a good-bye when we leave.
I wish we had Tai Chi at the Northwest Y.
I love everything about YMCA
The range of motion - stretch class led by Kahlil is the best. That class supplements my regular workouts in the gym on the other days. The sociability around the round table keeps me coming back and many thanks to Elizabeth for keeping the coffee pot full.
The instructors are knowledgeable about the classes they are teaching.
Lobethw YMCA
I love Yfit and the instructor Todd. He does a fantastic job picking out new workouts for us each day. He is very knowledgeable in the fitness world and provides very thorough instruction so we don’t get injured. We also love the swim team and Coach Diana! She makes swimming fun and my son is constantly improving his times.
I appreciate the "coach approach" exhibited by all the folks I've been fortunate to work with in the swim aerobics classes. I think you're trying to listen as to what folks' concerns (not sure how you fix the number of people doing classes vs slots open), but I appreciate the help given so often in many ways.
The wide variety of options
Variety of classes. Hours of operation.
I enjoy the water classes especially.
This Ymca is the best! I love the group exercise classes and that there is something for the entire family to enjoy!
