Member Testimonials
They are adapted to fit the needs of the participants Also, my instructor, Cindy, always tells us why we are doing a particular exercise or stretch, and she pushed us but not too far. Also you have such a great variety and time schedule to accommodate all needs. Guest speakers are brought in with various topics of interest. Everything is kept neat, clean and orderly...very important. All age groups and their needs are provided, and I haven't had time to investigate the games, luncheons and field trips. The best thing, though, is that my insurance pays for it!!
Y is open and welcoming, with tons of classes and activities.
Programs and activities are great but more importantly it is imperative the facility is well maintained. At the end of the day if the facility is not maintained properly it won't matter what programs and activities are offered because people won't come. Please do not try to offer more programs and activities at the expense of the members who expect a clean and fully functional facility. In other words don't scare away the gooses that lays the golden eggs.
Lots of things
effective
BODYPUMP and BODYATTACK are definitely my favorite classes, and in general I love this whole facility. It's really a gem.
Variety in class content
well managed and ease in joining
and viewing options
great staff
Best gym I've ever belonged to, new weight equipment is great plus pool, outdoor fields, daycare, etc.
Love my trainer Cathy!
There is something for everyone
Don't really use any activities or programs, but I love the outdoor basketball court and the remodelled workout facility using principally free weights is a huge improvement. The outdoor running track is great also. The staff is respectful and fun.
Please, please, please make available a yoga/stretching area for pre-workout warm up. My workouts and recovery time are greatly improved when I do yoga beforehand, so it is a fundamentally important part of my routine.
God bless y'all,

My family enjoys the basketball court. Lots of classes to choose from for everyone's fitness needs.
Variety of programs available at convenient times, helpful staff and talented teachers.
I love the variety of exercise classes and gym equipment. I also love that the Y is family-centric. I see grandparents, babies, teens and everyone in between. I feel comfortable - just one of the many trying to stay active and healthy.
Friendly, very professional, clean!👏
Wonderful activities for Seniors and organized very well.
I like very much the AOA activities, the Silver Sneakers, Yoga and Tai Chi classes as well as there is a place for women to work out. I wish that on Sundays the Trotter YMCA open earlier than 10 am. For Summer, it would be great that on Saturday and Sunday Trotter YMCA closes at 8 pm instead 7 pm.
Fantastic facilities, staffs and services
Such a great place to get your health back while feeling secure that your kids are in good care!
Kids swimming and Childcare service.
Exercise equipment
I like/use the handball courts and the cardio equipment. I would stop using The TF YMCA if any more courts are destroyed. For as little at the Pilates "room" is used it could/should be made into a court again. I am moving closer to the Y so I will be giving up my LAFitness membership and using the Y more.
I’ve been attending the Advanced Fitness class for two years now and absolutely love it. It’s not too difficult and not too easy and the afternoon time schedule is perfect. It’s critical older people exercise on a routine basis to stay strong and avoid falling.
I hope it always continues!
All the instructors we’ve had were excellent which is absolutely necessary to have us return time after time.
The Y is a wonderful place to not only stay fit, take classes, take trips, play games, swim, camps for children, etc., but it provides involvement and companionship to so many people who otherwise would spend their time alone and isolated.
Lap pool and men’s whirlpool
Right now I only use the swimming pool. I like the friendly & respectful environment.
The service from desk front and the teachers are friendly and very professional.
The diversity of classes and great selection of exercise equipment
Good variety of classes and activities, great location, clean facility!
I like the accessibility to a variety of exercise machines, which accommodate the senior citizen group. Also, the staff members are friendly.

-the facility is clean -plenty of classes available.
-the staff is knowledgable and courteous -biggest disappointment is a total cut back on the Women's Center hours ,several members have left because they liked the whole idea of a only women area ,but hours didn't work for them
