Member Testimonials
Love the group exercise classes and the camaraderie of the participants and staff. I really love the Zumba classes. They are so much fun that you don't really realize how much exercise you are getting. Allows you to tone quickly. (Thanks for adding more zumba classes!) The instructors are friendly and supportive. They give wonderful encouragement and provide the tips to make sure you understand the moves and variations for new people or those with mobility issues. Favorite instructors are Megan, Ashley, Joanna, Julianna, Jazzi, and Shimmerah.
I also like the spin classes, cardio drumming, and aqua hiit and aerobics classes. Gives a lot of variety to what you can try and see different styles of exercise. I even Iike to see how far that I can push myself in the YFit classes. I may not be the typical bootcamp participant but the format allows you to work at your own pace. Todd is funny and encouraging and shows you modifications. Also like Barbara and Diane in the water. (However, Mary aggressively called me out in her class and I will not go back.)
Since I gained confidence, I am not afraid to use the weights and equipment in front of others. This can be particularly intimidating for older women who aren't in prime shape to use the free weights in front of other people. Anything you can do to encourage them would be helpful.
I was even able to convince my teenager to join and have them come with me. They used the treadmill with headphones while I attended group exercise classes.
The price is high but I like the variety of group classes and formats available. I also like that the YMCA uses. Their resources to help other people in need.
I really like the Coach Approach model. It has gotten me into strength training, and I’m feeling stronger each week…not to mention how much better I sleep at night.
Great place to work out.
I love to do the walking path, the machines, my most favorite is water aerobics. If I can't get to a class, I grab a lane and work out. Love the dry sauna and whirlpool.
Love the YMCA for me and my family! The kids love the childwatch and programs and I get my gym workouts in!
I enjoy the yoga, Pilates, and cardio strength classes.

I love being able to take classes whenever I want or have the time
Easy to adjust to the progams. Clean and friendly people.
We enjoy the PNO and so do our kids. We love the kids club and are thankful for having a great team to watch our kids as we work out. I would love a steam room like McClesky YMCA and a larger sauna as it is always full. Thanks!
I like the water activities and the instructors, especially Kalil and Barbara.. I do wish you would raise the temperature 2 degrees. I do appreciate the Y opening the extra lanes and allowing more people to attend classes. I feel the Y does listen to complaints and tries to solve all issues.
