Member Testimonials
I love the exercise classes that I take.
The friendly trainers.
What I don’t like is the lack of safety lighting at the far unlit ends of the parking areas. And that we can only enter and exit through one door. I don’t come to classes if it’s dark or icy. I’m a senior and want to take care of my health but a dangerous parking area keeps me from coming as much as I would like to.
Well equipped, convenient hours, clean and well-lit
The variety of classrs
A couple of things that could make everyone's experience at our Y a bit better. Please ask the lifeguards to minimize loud ongoing conversations in the large pool area while classes are in session. I know they aren't pool police, but having loud ongoing conversations in the swimming area makes it difficult for the 25-30 people in a water fitness class, to hear, follow instructions and concentrate. Secondly, there are several pieces of equipment that need some attention. Two that come to mind right off the bat, are the first rower just outside of the large classroom, and the leg press closest to the wall.
The many amenities and options as far as classes and facilities
The staff is friendly and it’s a great value with lots of options.
The gym is very convenient and the classes are fun
Great variety of equipment and classes. Clean and open. Mostly good instructors for group classes. Easy to sign up for classes.
Community feeling place for an active family!
Very nice
A wide variety of athletic options. We use the machines on the main floor, the pool and we enjoy the classes. As older adults, the Y offers good exercise classes and training geared toward us.

I love Zumba and I love my instructors there! Laurie and Jenn are both so fun and they teach in such a way that even a non-dancer could get the dance moves down. I look forward to each class, tell my friends all the time to join me and I'm even trying to add more classes to my busy schedule! It's that fun! You don't even realize you've been working out!
I enjoy the variety of classes.
PRO: Friendly associates. CON: I wish you would label parking spaces in the right hand lot at the Arnold center as "Front End Parking Only." People who insist on slowing things down by backing in can use the parking lot to the left, which has wider aisles.
Everyone is very nice and helpful!
The friendly atmosphere and the variety of classes. Machines are great also.
I have loved Marlene Scott's class for 20 years and my grandsons and relatives love the Y programs.
Fabulous instructors…
The Arnold and Pasadena YMCA family centers are the best and healthiest lifestyle memberships you can belong to.
Plenty of equipment
Equipment is always latest and functional. Space in the off times. Love the cafe space to work and relax in before or after workouts! Always clean! Nicest employees!
I like how friendly the staff is and how available all the equipment is.
It's close to home, has exactly what I need, and I see a lot of friends there.
:Great classes especially Zumba on Saturday morning at 9 with Laurie in Arnold
