I like that it’s laid-back but still motivating. Everyone’s doing their own thing but supporting each other too.
Friendly staff! Must mention how helpful everyone is. Next, lots of exercise options. Equipment is well maintained and plentiful. I’ve never had to wait to use it. Last, I appreciate the variety of classes offered.

The Chestnut Y has many classes and equipment, friendly staff and clean facilities. I especially like the Monday and Thursday Yoga class, and the 4th floor equiment.
As a trans woman, it’s relaxing that I’m never looked at weird when I’m here. I can come in, do my workout and shower off, and get on with my day without anyone thinking I’m some sort of threat.
Friendly, personable and knowledgeable instructors who keep fitness fun and the great people I meet in the classes.

What I like best about the YMCA is the people. I like how you feel welcome. When I first came to the YMCA I was so nervous because I never been to a gym. The people made me feel like one of them. What I saw at the YMCA was family. So I thank u so much for that experience

I work at GE Appliance Park, so it is convenient, but I wish that had weekend hour on Saturday and Sunday - or at least on Saturday. In the past this was offered, and it would be great for longer day workouts.

I like the classes, especially body pump, core and cycle. I also enjoy the pickleball open gym times
