Member Testimonials
The staff is always friendly and helpful. There is a great variety of activities and the scheduling is accommodating. I play pickleball there and the program has grown tremendously.
It is a welcoming place that I have had the pleasure of working at and being a member over the last twenty years.
The people are so friendly and helpful. I love all the different choices available for classes. The place is very clean.
The various types of classes
Friendly place to workout or play
I enjoy the wide variety of classes offered.
Always a smile going in and out..warm pool exercises/classes...has really helped with my rehab this year
Clean facility, excellent teachers,warm and friendly staff
My son loves the open gym and weight room! I’m happy he has a safe place to hang out and exercise with his friends. As well as meet new people.
I love all the programs for children. My 5 year old daughter truly enjoys her swim lessons and rock climbing!
We also enjoy Parents' Night Out! Typically, slots fill up quickly for PNO and I was able to still drop her off on the wait list since there are always no-calls, no-shows on the registered list. However, this past Saturday we were told the policy changed and we were turned away (my daughter was extremely disappointed). There should be a way to penalize/prevent parents from registering, then not canceling and not showing up. This is also an issue with the free youth classes. I'd be fine with paying a registration fee for PNO to help prevent people from registering, then not showing up.
Good facilities for a reasonable cost.
Love the pickleball and cardio dance.
I enjoy being referred to as my first name, not Ms/Mrs/Mr. Things, such as manners, change over time.

The friendliness of the welcoming staff in the early morning, they always have a smile on their faces.
I've visited many Y's in the Maryland area but the Dancel Y is by far my favorite. Why? The staff are absolutely wonderful and the sense of community here is unmatched. It's not just a gym, but also a place to connect with neighbors and meet new people. I can't say enough good things about this place. Thank You!!
Love the pool.
But the men’s bathroom beds more attention. Toilet the hair around the shower drain.
I want to personally thank Karen at the front desk. I was in the process of moving memberships from my previous YMCA and she could not have been more helpful and kind. Every day on top of that she greets everyone with a smile and it goes a long way. The gym itself is great with very nice amenities. I love the fact there are two basketball courts.
Convenient hours - thank you for increasing the hours
Facilities - lots of options
Community feel and spirit
