The pools
The morning hours and getting together with people.
I like the amount of fitness classes, the kids club allowing parents to find time to work out, the friendly staff
convenience, friendliness of staff and availability
I like the ability to reserve a time for swimming!
Love the workout area, staff is great. Wish the indoor pool was bigger, wish the the large indoor pool was available for members ( the swim team uses it).
I was amazed when I walked into ME Lyons YMCA the day before yesterday with my Silver Sneakers hopes raised, and found the staff and the place and the protocols beyond my wildest dreams. Ann at the desk was welcoming, efficient, and very kind. I had had fairly negative experiences up until this moment with other gyms: one only allowed Silver Sneakers members to participate in a class two times a week. No pool access or anything else. Another was kind of chaotic and dirty . . .in short, when ME Lyons offered a full, free membership and a beautiful, clean area, with full access to the pools (both indoor and outdoor), I was duly surprised. Besides the physical beauty of the place, there was a vibe of friendliness and care that I have seldom experienced. Thank you!!!! (^_^)
Kids Club, swimming, kids sports. ALL OF IT! Wonderful place led by friendly volunteers.

Great staff! Fun water exercise class with Sue
Love yoga and silver sneakers classic classes but PLEASE bring Zumba classes back ?
We all miss it !
Thanks !
I attend the morning water aerobics class. Susan, the instructor, is not only very good, but a very kind person!
Awesome facility- very clean
Variety, ease of scheduling.
We have been very happy with the Y but wish they would recognize the swim team more for their contributions to the Y. Taking the indoor pool away from the team has been a negative experience. (Younger kids now have to practice later on school nights). We pay to be members and feel the team should be treated as such. If we weren’t on the swim team we would likely join a different gym or fitness center
Friendly, easy to work with staff
Everything
i attend the monday morning yoga and barre classes, the tuesday/thursday kick box and yoga classes and the wednesday pilates class. al of the instructors are on time, prepared, friendly and very good at leading their class.
i appreceiate the number and variety of classes offered (though i would like to see more low-impact aerobic options).
I'm happy to have two regulation size pickleball course in the gym, and really thrilled about the four courts built outside a year and a half ago. The front desk staff is always very friendly and helpful.
Early "family" swim when I can exercise in the water and only other early swimmers are in the pool--so plenty of room.
I like the gym
Needed to reinstate, reactivate, my membership My email was answered within 5 minutes. The front desk person knew all the steps to do so and was friendly and welcoming.
Good number of activities for older adults.
Everyone is welcome. It doesn't matter if you're a beginner or expert in a class everyone feels welcomed.
The Y has everything I need/want in a gym, and I love the diversity of people and programs. I love seeing adults with special needs working and having a community, and the desk staff is consistently helpful and kind. We love the Y!
Great community feel.
Sue instructs an active and fun water exercise class.
