I love the aquatic exercise class on 9:15am on Tuesdays and Thursdays at the Ryan YMCA with instructor, JULIE. She is so energetic and is a fantastic motivator with her bubbly personality and keeping our workouts fun. When workouts are fun, they do not become routine and boring. It keeps you motivated to not miss a class.
I use the swimming pool and appreciate the hours open swimming is available.
However, I do have one complaint. Many years ago when I first started coming to swim, the lifeguards were very friendly and personable. The lifeguards working there today, at least the ones I see in the morning around 7 to 7:30, are some of the rudest people I have come in contact with. They only speak when spoken to - if I say hello or thank you and have a nice day they will finally respond. Otherwise they can't bother to speak. In addition to being unfriendly, they usually look as though they are mad at the world. While seeing the two on duty this morning, sitting in the chair and looking as though they hated being there, I wondered if they would notice if I was in trouble and, if so, would they bother to help.
I will add that the ladies working the front desk are VERY nice and welcoming. They also speak when I leave and we exchange kind words to each other.
I appreciate having the Y close to my home and I do enjoy my time in the water. It's just a shame the lifeguards care so little about their jobs.
Everything!
I just like going for my daily cardio and extending my PT.
Cycling. Need more classes

The Staff is wonderful. My daughter has taken swimming lesson many times at the YMCA and been a wonderful experience. She can swim like a fish. Ryan YMCA make us feel like family.
The instructors were very attentive to the students abilities and encouraged them and gave them confidence.
The aquatics program instructor was very helpful in showing my daughter's to swim and get used to being in the deeper end of the pool.
The facility is clean and the employees from the from the front desk to the back are friendly. The sun instructors Julie and Natalie are very patient with the youth swim lessons.
Our instructor was very sweet and patient with the little ones (preschool class). It looks like my girls gained some confidence in the pool and we will likely take more classes!
The staff was/is helpful.
I enjoy the water aerobic class but am not happy about the pool closing at 12:30 PM. I like to do some laps after class. (class ends at 12:30) I hope that the pool will reopen again soon for lap swimming . The equipment for exercising at the front to the Y are great and always clean. The front staff are always friendly. I also wish the hot tub gets fixed sometime soon!!!
You have all the different programs and activities a person could want. I love Yoga and palates , thank God you have it. The people who work there are friendly and helpful as ar the members. Ryan YMCA feels like home.
