Member Testimonials
Friendly, helpful staff. I see lots of my friends there.
The workers are always friendly and helpful. Its a very welcoming environment to work out in and i love the community involvement
I like the ability to go to other YMCA's across the country.
Classes, staff, cleanliness, hours
Good people, excellent and ample equipment. Also a nice place for senior citizens to keep fit.
I wish the pool had more lap lanes.
The environment and the equipment were always kept clean.
Personally, I love the Expresso Bikes. A wide range of workouts from 1 mile to 20 miles that provide a good simulation of actually riding outside! Pacers and ghosts from previous rides to keep you motivated, plus extensive statistics so you can see your performance over time.
It is a welcoming environment for all ages with many different options.
Please tell people to speak on cell phones
In the lobby. It is distracting to listen to conversations and other things while trying to work out. I wish you had a designated quiet room to use treadmills and ellipticals.
Can you get people to stop slamming weights?
I know that might be difficult.
The people at the front desk are always so nice.
Y is a such good place for all of age person to go.
The YMCA is simply the best! Hand down.

Friendly and helpful staff. Love the location and the variety of classes and equipment
Karen Culp’s classes help the elderly like me. The Y needs to do more chair classes and more for the elderly. That’s why I come. Thank you for keeping me moving.
The variety of choices for exercise and the friendliness of the staff. Also, the fireplace area for relaxation.
Easy to connect with a Y member to get the membership updated.
Hours the gym is open
I prefer the simpler, more traditional exercise equipment, as well as free weights, as their use is not only straightforward, but often more flexible.
Safe, healthy environment for my grandson. Clean and attractive facility. Knowledgeable and helpful staff.
The friendly people who work at the Y, the clean facilities, the programs, and the hours. the location is also one of the reasons we love the Y.
Staff, facilities, the greatest !!!
My kids love the variety of classes they can try and I love that they are either free or very inexpensive, so it feels like very little risk, as they are 5 year olds and just starting to explore organized sports.
Just a suggestion- please put up coat hooks on a wall somewhere. Now that it’s getting cold, coats are everywhere and using locker rooms with small children in tow is not convenient or feasible sometimes. People are hanging coats on treadmills, leaving them in heaps on the floors, would be nice to have an area to hang the coats and not need to access a locker.
The Y for me is habit - more - a life style decision where I can walk up to old age and say "Get out of my face!" I go nearly every other day since I get an email every month commending my steadiness. Before hiring staff, I think that they must obtain some sort of friendliness quotient. I go regularly to Parkville, Towson and 33rd. My grandson works at Catonsville and I find the same thing: a pleasant greeting, paying attention to questions, desire to assist.
I'm a lap swimmer. I go into the changing rooms and they are always clean. The cleaning staff behave like they are honored to get a prim and proper place.
I spend about an hour and a half in the pool each visit. Minutes churn. If someone want to join me in my lane or vice versa, there is always cordial welcome and we keep going.
Hard to recognize that exercise ain't fun.
My swim instructor Lee is outstanding, patient and supportive. She is young and able to walk comfortably with us .
