Member Testimonials
Spin Classes
The facility is well run, clean, and pleasant. The staff is quite nice.
The spin classes are fantastic. The times for classes are great.
I enjoy the well equipped workout room and spin studio, as well as the cleanliness of the facility itself and that it is very well maintained.
The social mission is an important and enduring one that I am glad to support through my membership.
Finally, it is the staff - their warmth, friendliness and professionalism - that make the Trotter Y one of my favorite places in Houston.
Everybody is so nice and caring! Clean place!
Courteous and helpful staff, extended hours of operation, cleanliness and attentiveness!
Variety of classes offered.
Everything!! Games, pickle ball and exercise classes
Sh'Bam and Sh'Bam teachers.
We enjoy the facility. It gives 2 hours child care while we are working out. I personally enjoy the group exercise classes. Great facility where all age groups have something for them.
Group exercise classes. Camaraderie. Great teachers.
Inclusive for every age group
I use the handball courts 3 to 4 times per week along with at least 10 others. Our numbers are growing as players realize how nice and convenient the TFYMCA is. The staff at the Y is very nice as well.
The best YMCA in the city somehow, seems not to value the basketball court, and here's why. Since moving from the greatest facility to the new place the basketball court has not had a makeover in eleven years. The floor is horrible the up keep on the gym is lacking daily attention the downtown ymca was the model for all other (Y)s
I love the Forever Well classes and the instructors. I would like to see more classes that are for senior members, like chair yoga.
Safe, clean environment.
Great atmosphere. Helpful employees.
I’ve recently joined so I’ve not taken any classes yet.
The staff was helpful
Hang in there! You are a value to the community.
Lots of adaptations for older people
I love how accessible and diverse the YMCA is: the crowds of kids and older folks, and that everyone can work out together in a no frills way in one place!
Virtual classes are a spectacular option. Love, love, love all of the options.
Heated pool outdoors! Dressing rooms right by pool. Bridge lessons and group play each week. Cafe with healthy food. Easy parking. Nice employees. Great energy of full classes. Clean.
I'm really glad I joined the Y. I would ask that there might be Barre classes in the early morning, like 5:30 a.m. This way I could get a work out prior to heading to the office.
All programs and activities are fine with me
You offer a great range of group classes (tho not as many as pre-pandemic). The instructors, admin people, staff are very friendly and welcoming. Personal trainers and instructors are very professional and really know their stuff!
Everything!!!
Machines in gym
Opportunity to meet w/ friends
The group exercise classes (Stretch, Yoga, Pilates), are wonderful - we need more of them. I also enjoy working out in the large upstairs workout room & appreciate the people that keep the machines sanitized.

Great Y
