Member Testimonials
Body Combat is an excellent class - I wish we had more times / instructors / older songs
My daughter loves Zumba
I am a longtime member and while I think there are a lot of areas that the YMCA could improve I have remained a member all these years because of the friends that I have met and the staff members that always put their best effort forward to keep a facility in need of some TLC running as smoothly as it does.

Good variety of classes, affordable
Excellent facilities, friendly and helpful staff. Great hours. We practically live there and the Walter Schroeder Aquatic Center.
Not in any classes. Use exercise equipment and walk the track.
Love the group exercise classes, especially Body Combat
Everything is easy to find , so many different health services and very kid friendly .
Very good group exercise program with a large variety of workout choices. Competent instructors who do an outstanding job of running classes that allow participants to set and accomplish workout goals. A really nice and diverse group of members.
Equipment is usually okay, but needs to be maintained and upgraded from time to time. YMCA is my first choice to meet my fitness needs.
Thanks for all your good work.
I like the variety and number of machines available. People are friendly.
Rite Hite YMCA has been so good to me and I love it. Recommend to anyone
Pools, classes, silver sneaker yoga,
Rowing
They are fantastic.
Group exercise
Fantastic classes with thoughtful and professional instructors. Participants are friendly and nonjudgmental.
Outstanding class: Yoga Friday 11:30, conducted by Sue Emlen. Sue has a deep commitment to her students. Her experience and skill is exceptional.
I also appreciate the water aerobics classes ( though they are a bit crowded at times).
Variety and flexibility

Loved the staff and friendly environment
There are a variety of ways to stay fit offered throughout the day.
We like the track and the pool. We don't use the programs. Pleasant people work there. The lockers are a little frustrating, that there is often so many that have dead batteries in the lock.
Excellent programs, facilities and staff
The instructors of the paid YMCA class my wife and I are taking are taking an interest to get to know our individual styles, needs, and practices. It is nice to be known by name even by the second class period!
I love camp Itasca and all the kids programs offered. All the adults and counselors are so engaging...they all know my daughter and even if they see her outside of a class they say hello. I feel very very comfortable there with everyone knowing us and looking out for each other. I also love the adult fitness challenges. All of the staff never makes you feel bad for not being as fit as others and are all so encouraging and helpful to meet you where you are at and get you to where you want to be.
I just like being able to drop into classes and to use the gym equipment when I want during the day.
It's like a family

Excellent instructors in the group exercise programs
