Member Testimonials
I like how friendly the staff is and how clean they keep everything.
Friendly people
I like having so many options of exercise equipment to use as well as having the ability to choose from so many exercise programs daily.
The staff are friendly and courteous.
Also, I love the fact that Y Open Doors Savings is on the table for anyone needing it to afford to increase their physical activity!
I am thrilled with the Fit Quest program which helps even beginners get acquainted with where their individualized fitness level is starting on the various strength training equipment, and how to use them properly, and even provides the Y members with a Fit Quest App connected which shows the user how to perform each exercise as well as provide a daily strength and exercise schedule within it.
In addition, the Orokawa Y in Towson is the first Y in Central Maryland to launch the new EGYM system with its new strength training equipment tailored to the exact needs of each registered user when they get oriented and fitted with a detectable device recognized by each related strength training machine also related to a specific recommended App.
Most of all, I love being able to learn how to swim at this stage in my life. Also, I have been learning how to use any exercise equipment without feeling intimidated because the fitness coaches and personal trainers/staff have been more than willing to answer my questions which increases my confidence and ability to use them. Furthermore, I like having the opportunity to join classes and be part of a diverse community of people with all types of fitness levels who are mainly accommodated no matter what physical abilities or disabilities they have.
I could go on and on about my Y experience, however, I am just grateful to be able to experience what I have thus far and thank God that He has allowed me to be able to move and have a mind to increase my physical activity in this stage of my life as a retiree!
The Orokawa Y is clean, well-staffed, and well-maintained. It has the facilities necessary for a good workout, and its early hours are convenient for working people.
