Member Testimonials
Swim, steam.
Use of exercise facilities.
I love the Y because it does have multiple options for a workout. There are so many types of equipment to choose from, spin class, swimming, and body pump just to name a few!
My wife and I love the Y; we come 3 days a week - she swims 20 lips a day, and I play racquetball. The variety of people- all of whom are open and friendly - makes the Y among the most democratic places in FW ( a deeply undemocratic and Republican city).
Nice selection of both cardio and weight equipment. Clean.
I have been a member of the Y for most of my adult life and I jump at the chance to brag on the Y. Having YMCA memberships now a national membership, it's something to promote especially to people that tend to workout on their lunch break.
25 meter pool opening usually @ 5:30 am; strength training equipment both free weights and machines; stretching areas; accommodations for all age groups; philosophy that any movement is independent quality survival. The "Y" provides quality, safe, consistent community services for our communiy.
wide diversity, convenient schedule, nice facility, and personable employees

Friendly, appropriate to my needs.
I like everything about the programs, facility and activitiew.
I like the all in one place to excercise and work on my well being.
I love the group exercise classes… I even make a special trip out to the Benbrook YMCA for body combat! I would love to see body come to the downtown ymca!
The variety of updated treadmills (most featuring TV availability), stair-climbers and recumbent bikes allow for a solid crossover workout. Same with the well-maintained equipment/machines in the aerobics room. The weight room also has plenty of options for straight strength-training.
The Amon G. Carter Downtown YMCA and its staff offer a user-friendly workout environment whether it's too cold or too hot to exercise outside. Overall, The Downtown Y is a great value relative to the cost of membership.

I like that the downtown Y is very spacious and has a lot of good equipment and never seems to be too crowded. The staff is friendly and helpful. The facilities are always clean.

I like the pool.
I’m a little unhappy that the pool status is so hard to find.
Friendly staff and the variety of work out machines and facilities.
Close to my house and easy to find activities to do. Have been a member for a long, long time.
Staff is friendly and helpful.
Back in the 80’s and was very committed to going everyday. 😊

Pool availability
Equipment
Overall, I find the facilities very good and the downtown location is great for those who work and/or live near downtown. My one suggestion would be to better promote Pickleball as a community recreation option. Currently it is scheduled Tuesday mornings only and the nets are in terrible shape, virtually unusable. Replacing or repairing the nets and adding at least one more day/time on the schedule would improve the draw to this location.
