Member Testimonials
Everyone is so friendly. I have made a lot of Y Friends and always look forward to seeing them when I come.
I liked that after a long time away from fitness, my husband and I spontaneously decided to go get a workout and swim laps in , the timing was perfect. Not overcrowded and the pool was available without another activity preventing us from swimming.
It made getting back to exercise easier. The cleanliness was the best I ever seen it...kudos to the cleaning staff.
We came from a Y in Western Maryland that had gym, iceskating, therapy pool, sauna and steam room, catonsville offers just the bare necessity, but I was impressed this visit and hopefully each time we go will be just as pleasant experience.

LOve it.. I love the challenges.. I like the classes,especially the swim fit.. Equipment is always available..
The Y has opportunities to be healthy for the entire family; from fitness classes to self-propelled fitness equipment.
We’re very happy with the instruction our kids have gotten with Joan (and Jen the first lesson).
The variety of equipment and the quality of it. Also the knowledge of the staff.
Programs to keep me motivated. Variety of events.
I love going. It's very clean and everyone is curious! That being said, its always busy. I've been having a hard time parking.
Our swim coach is AMAZING! Coach Christine! She coaches level 3 on Tuesdays. My daughter LOVES her and her swimming has greatly improved!!!
Everything, would love to have basketball at this location
Rachel is awesome and very personable! She pushes me just over my comfort level and has taught me many different strokes and techniques to improve my breathing and speed.
I enjoy my water aerobics with my “Y” family.
I love the classes. (Im in Body Sculpt).
Also, nice to have a warm, inviting place (with a fireplace!! during the winter.
I am planning to use the swimming pool more than i have.
I am doing the FitBit (do i have the right name?) for try to do resistance training. People from the Y and regular folks are friendly and try to help me when I need help on this.
The one downside is that i love yoga but most classes for advanced yoga are early in the am and late in the pm.
The gym is convenient to my home and all the different Services it provides swimming rock climbing spin classes and much more!!
Great staff, welcoming environment
LOVE the Catonsville Y! It's my work Y... I visit the Y where ever I go in Baltimore! Another benefit!!
The staff is friendly, the facilities are clean. I love how they have all types of classes.
Program activities with a great bunch of participants. Trainers available. Close to home.
The staff are friendly and there are a variety of classes and activities. However, the classes get too full and the classes that aren't full tend to get cancelled. So I would like more classes so we have room to move and don't run out of equipment. Since the Thursday yoga class was cancelled, I would like to see that replaced.
I like the variety of programs and the facilities. Also, the staff is very helpful and friendly.
The gym is open, sunny, easy to get around. There's usually enough machines that the wait for any one machine isn't too bad. Restrooms are clean. Staff is knowledgeable. Rates are affordable, parking is accessible and plentiful. Overall, the YMCA provides a great service to local communities.
I love the group classes I take. I like the monthly challenges, they get me motivated to do more. I love my instructors- especially Cristina- she pushes me out of my comfort zone and challenges me.
Everything!
There is always equipment available! I can work out and bring my grandson. He stays in the daycare and he loves it! The people are kind and always greet you! They have so many classes.
Friendly, low key, lots of fitness options.
I love that the Y is pretty much a family experience. I enjoy the fact that I can bring my children with me as I workout, but also there are events catered just for them as well.
It keeps the whole family in shape without any excuse to stay healthy as a unit.
The fact that we're all here to achieve the same goal....BETTER HEALTH. We share, support & encourage one another, makes it a very enjoyable experience.
