I love the focus on safety and community. It’s so good to be able to be there and feel safe.
I like that the staff and members are kind and encouraging. I like the group exercise workouts and I like how they are always cleaning and disinfecting.

We've always had positive experiences with the Orokowa Y, particularly the staff and cleanliness of the pool and facilities. During the pandemic, they've been especially kind and accommodating to me and my 80yr old father, who has had some struggles adjusting to the new safety protocols.
It's all about water fitness for me.
I love the variety of classes and appreciate that many are offered outdoors.
I will recommend this YMCA to anyone! The staff are so wonderful and they all know me and my children by name. That is an impressive feat considering I have five children, but the employees name everyone of us by name. It makes us feel like we belong to a real YMCA family. Also, the facilities and programs are wonderful. We spend almost everyday at the Y for some kind of program or activity!
Classes inside and outside during the Pandemic. Safety protocols during Pandemic and reinforced by staff. Y communication with members has been excellent.
No one goes anymore so it's awesome, very peaceful. Don't let Gov shut you down , gyms are safe, not enough people go so plenty of room for social distancing. I love it. Staff is excellent
Seeing my y friends and my instructor.
I do wish the y would check the Privillion before class. When it rsi s, half the floor is covered with water. Dangerous!
Everything!
Good jobs
Clean facility, friendly and knowledgeable staff, well trained and skilled in their area.
I usually come in the early afternoon. Not having to wait for equipment makes my workouts more enjoyable.
I like taking classes at the Y. I have been going 5 to 6 days a week. After the outside classes I go inside and use the machines. I find that I do feel safe using the equipment since the Y has asked that we wear masks and clean the machines and equipment before and after we use them. I especially like the body pump class and take that Monday and Friday since those are the outside times. I would like to do the class on Wednesday during the day as well and hope that the Y will run a body pump during the day eventually.
Is for me the best place ... where I can sweat my problems, my stress from work disappear, I’m another person when I came out... I recharge my mind it’s a great place to be.
The employees are always friendly. The water class teachers are experts. The facilities are always clean. The Towson Y is the best!

The friendly atmosphere and the feeling of community when we walk in. Great instructors, clean studio and equipment, convenient parking. Can’t wait for COVID restrictions to lift!
