Member Testimonials
Donicia insured that I did my exercises correctly and gave me a typed exercise guide so I could do the exercises correctly between sessions.
Aqua exercise
GOOD instructors. Convenient multiple locations. Good variety of classes. Nice pool
It’s close to home. The staff is helpful and friendly
I like the variety of programs/sessions offered. The hours of the Y make it accessible for so many schedules and ages. Meeting great and friendly people is a big plus for me. The Y does a lot of good with many projects throughout the year, helping people of various ages and needs.
The friendly people and the wonderful helpful instructors that are a big part of the Y!!!!!!!
Clean, friendly, and convenient.
Fun! My grandkids love it!
Even though the place has changed over the years, it still has that homey feeling. Plus we now have a rock wall, fireplace, and a juice bar. The fireplace is especially nice in the winter when I am getting out of the pool. I like to sit around it with a cup of coffee after a swim.
My daughter absolutely loved the paint nite experience. The facilitators worked well with the children and families to make beautiful sea turtles on canvas. Dinner was great so we didn't have to rush and eat before attending the event. Thank you!
More treadmills appear to be more beneficial to members than bikes on the main floor..
The renovation and remodeling and rearrangement of equipment are excellent changes that made a difference for members.
Thank you....
great activities
Friendly and helpful staff, great staff at Stay-and-Play!
I enjoy all the activities at the YMCA I attend Catonsville branch it is always clean, the staff members are always friendly and polite. And the people who also attend this branch seem to be really friendly. My main love is the fact the pool warm is never cold or freezing something I hate. Next on my bucket list is climbing the rock wall I might get up there ok but they may have to come up to get me down lol.
Everything.
Great staff and trainers.
Excellent equipment.
Enjoy seeing such a diverse group of attendees who are seeking to improve their level of fitness.
The pool is wonderful and the xtaff is very helpful!
It was my first time at the Catonsville Branch. Very nice building, I love the open atmosphere, cafe like area. The ladies at their desk spoke immediately and helped to direct me to the right area.
Location. Equipment. Staff. Classes.
I especially like the swim fit classes, which includes the instructors and the hours.
It's clean (including showers and bathrooms), accessible, affordable, one way to contribute to the community (I could go to Planet Fitness, but the Y is a better community investment), nearly all equipment is always in working order, parking is great, plenty of programming, fun/safe place for kids, staff is friendly and most often helpful, light/bright area to work out, on-line workouts are motivational.
friendly and helpful staff, clean facility!
The Ward Y is home... comfortable!
Thankful that with my membership I am able to use the pool for exercise! As I have papers for arthritis and water exercise is best for my body!
The staff is extremely nice and helpful... the facility is always clean... the equipment I like is always available when I come in... I just love my experiences at the Y and so do my kids...
Everything the staff, programs and the cleanliness.
It can be busy but never too crowded. I went yesterday for the first time in 3 months and I like that y'all added another squat rack. I don't like to use the assisted squat rack so having 2 non-assisted ones is great.
I also usually know at least 1 person when I go, even if it's later in the evening. That gives it the community feel and indicates that people are continuing their membership for more than just a season/short time.
It is a reasonably affordable way to keep fit and enjoy exercise.
There is something for everyone. The kids love the programs (especially karate), as do the adults.
Friendliness and supportiveness of staff, cleanliness of space
Always positive people there, great staff, very clean, great value for the price.
