Member Testimonials
Just what I have comever to expect from the Y.
Friendly staff, clean facilities, options for time slots available
Knowledgeable instructor
The swim instructor for my son's swim class is just phenomenal! He learned more and was more excited after 6 weeks of swim classes here than 2 years at the previous swim class he was in.
Our kids have had such great success learning to swim and perfecting their strokes at the YMCA.
The variety and the instructors are great
The interaction with leader and members.
Machines
I like the yoga class instructor and that the room is divided into 25 sections

Jess is awesome!!
I love the wide variety of swimming programs, classes, and open swim time that we now have in the pool, Mission Point it is not only a fantastic all body exercise but swimming keeps people social as well! Thank you for having such a wonderful variety of activities water-based!
I enjoy all of the programs that the Y has to offer and I would attend more if the times did not interfere with each other. The new Silver Sneakers Stability class on Tuesday at 3:30pm is absolutely fantastic and just what we need too. I would like to attend more Yoga classes. I was attending seven Yoga classes a week, one each day. I do wish you opened at 10am or 11am on Sundays too. These are my only complaints at this time.
Sincerely,
Tom
Easy access with car. Easy to get to class. Not a big deal getting around. Friendly atmosphere. Colorful! Great instructors!
The pool
New Member. Like it so far! Thanks
I have not had an issue with the ME LYONS Y in 20 years but am extremely disappointed in their handling of the noise level of the music played for Water Zumba on Tuesdays and Fridays at 10:00 in the indoor pool.
It has been measured by two members (on cell phones) at over 90 decibels. There have been NUMEROUS complaints and one letter that I know of about the ear-blasting music with the instructor continuing to ignore comments regarding the possible damage to the hearing of the lifeguards who MUST stay in the pool area.
I realize that the acoustics are lousy in the pool area; there are about 20 persons in the class who are ALL concentrated in the shallow area of the pool. Why the music must be SO DEAFENING that two people cannot hold a conversation in the deep end is beyond my understanding.
This is a constant source of drama every Tuesday and Friday at 10:00 that could be handled by some authority at the ME LYONS administrative level.
Persons HAVE been avoiding the time slot so as not to be accosted by the noise. It is too bad there cannot be any evidence of compromise on the instructors part.
It is an enjoyable activity that is well taught by Ms. Stewart but her continued lack of respect for the comfort of others and, especially the Guards, is somewhat maddening.
Take Silver Sneakers classes. Love our “trainer”, Nicole. She is cheerful and engaging. People who run this Y are very friendly and accommodating.
Very helpful employees and quick to respond to my needs
There is something for everyone, no matter your age.
Not involved in programs yet, just been utilizing the fitness area. The fitness area is clean, not overly crowded, and it is a welcoming environment.
I always get a good workout in the different classes I attend. The instructors are always positive and willing to help everyone have a good workout. The classes are easy to schedule. The YMCA is a fun place to go to have fun and meet new people.
Love the AOA dance fitness.
I like everything about the activities. The Chair Yoga and Silver Sneaker instructors are wonderful enjoy every moment
Only been a member again for a couple weeks but I love the friendliness of the staff and cleanliness of the facility.

Matt the swim instructor, works great with the kids! He is an asset to the Y.
