Member Testimonials
Kris B. who teaches the EC Fri 9:15am Pilates class is excellent.
The staff is friendly and the facility is very clean and well-maintained. There is a good variety of classes and the instructors are great! There is a lot of very nice equipment. I really have no complaints and enjoy going to the Y for exercise.
The instructor is very patient with my little girl who is afraid of taking swim lessons. Even though my daughter refuses to leave the steps, the instructor modifies the lesson to accompany here during the one on one times.
Close to home, good variety of classes and class times
Meg at front check in/Guest Services. Very polite & easy to work with.
great
Seeing my friends from Quest Fitness and the weigh equipment
I like the affordability of the swim lessons for my daughter and the small class sizes.
This teacher was the best out of all the teachers. She is in the water to check on students errors and make sure they are corrected. She is speaks clearly to students, instructs them and listen to their questions. Seldom chats with her colleagues nearby. Focused on her teaching to the students. Y should hire more teachers like her.
Large, clean facility with courts for pickle ball and other activities. I live in Catonsville but will drive to the ELlicott city location. More equipment and more to offer
The broad range of fitness programs and the friendly staff

Getting good exercise and meeting new people.
The guy who registered me for membership was super nice and helpful. I believe his name was Aylish...I can’t remember spelling but he said it was an Iranian name . I’ve onky been a member for one week but I like spin class and the gym is very clean.
Pickleball
The YMCA IS CLEAN and it has UP-TO-DATE equipment. I love this.
I love the water fitness!!
I love the Y, except when school is out. Over the summer there were youth in the gym area without wrist bands (your policy) and at least one of them brought a basket ball (why was this permitted) and was bouncing it on the way out. I would think that if you are running day camps that your staff would require the youth to check out/in with them when they are leaving the area.
I assume that the youth are given a location to gather in case of a fire or other disaster so that your staff can get an accurate count.
Also, I wish you had a hot tub!
Clean facility, well equipped and friendly staff.
The staff are very friendly and responsive. The facilities are very good and clean!

My girls enjoy the Stay and Play, rock wall and I enjoy the group classes.
Please do not replace the old equipment. I don’t like new equipment.
The Y is convenient. The classes are motivating me to work out daily. The facility is well maintained. It is my happy place.
