Silver sneakers
Quality of the instructors, availability of the classes, variety of classes
Glad there is an indoor pool to use in cold weather
I like to go but the best classes are to earlier in the morning I think a lot of people want yoga, tai-chi stretching and relaxing classes after 10 am not exactly at 7 am when moms are delivering kids to school.
Numerous varied classes. Friendly and supportive staff. Clean facilities. Excellent instructors. Wonderful opportunities to meet other like-minded people and make new friends.
i only use the weight training studios... but I like the Y business model... and the wide variety of activities and programs to attract folks from every element of the fitness spectrum.
The child watch and the gym side is organized and neat and clean
Well rounded activities to chose from, I like my instructors!
I like the variety of equipment at Monty Ballard and the group classes. It does seem though that in person group classes have still not quite recovered from the pandemic era hiatus. The group classes are important because they offer people opportunities for social connections to other people with similar interests.
Friendly people and very helpful.
Good programs for the youth snd good coaches, prices are also reasonable
I just use the machines.
Good group exercise leaders
Everything

Great price, just enough push without going overboard. My son loves it
I feel that the sports director (Mr: LoMonaco) is doing an amazing job and taking a huge effort to improve the sports programs. He has done a lot of awesome things for the kids and I’m excited about the future of the programs because of him!
There's a variety of classes and extracurricular activities for all ages
I like that there isn’t music blasting all over the building. The child watch team is very friendly and the front desk is very welcoming as well. The ac, especially in the lobby can be turned up a little. It’s freezing.
My mom is a senior, she enjoys the senior group classes and field trips. Recently had a great time in YMCA Camp. Provides connection, socialization, and fitness. I like kid’s watch, that allows parents of younger children to exercise.

Great class instructors and a good community of people.
