EVERYTHING!
Love the water exercise classes (most of the instructors anyway) and Laura G.'s Low Impact Combo class.
I like the variety of classes. Would like to have you add a water exercise class on Saturdays at 8:00am, for some variety. Some of the subs at the water exercise have not been as effective as regular instructors but am thankful that we are able to have subs.
Thank you for making the Y so great.
Friendly staff makes exercise fun!
Love CSI with Denise. Facility is always clean and not too crowded.
The y programs are great
Silver Sneakers and other classes and activities for seniors.

Variety
I enjoy the Silver Sneakers classes. Would like to have an extra class at Monty Ballard to deal with the over enrollment in the T/Th classes for Silver Sneakers. Would also like to have a yoga class for seniors at Monty Ballard.
I love the water fitness classes, lifeguards and instructors. I really wish that the Noon Silver Sneakers classes would be offered earlier in the day. The ladies at the front desk are always very helpful and welcoming as we check-in.
Monty Ballard is a great place to exercise and make friends with other seniors.
I THINK THE VARIETY IS GREAT. THERE REALLY IS SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE. THE INSTRUCTORS ARE KNOWLABLE AND HAVE GOOD PROGRAMS. ALSO THE STAFF ARE SO HELPFUL AND FRIENDLY. IT MAKES FOR A VERY PLEASANT EXPERIENCE. THANK YOU
Silver Sneakers’ instructors and program is excellent.
I like the community of Pickleball
Variety of classrs
Personal, friendly, professional staff. Very, very clean facility. Great programs. Convenient location.
I enjoy the variety of classes and times offered...there is something for everyone...
Silver sneakers has been very interesting and new for me. Weights, strenght, coordination, stretches, is all i was looking for. Also , I love the idea of having pickle ball courts , even though I did not get chance to use yet.
Very friendly staff and have met many very nice friends. The group senior ..silver sneakers, I have really enjoyed. As you enter the building the staff at the desks are ready to help and answer questions and so friendly.
Need to find a better way to sign people in fopr these group classes....Either put the names in alphabetic order or something...the lines are long and difficult to find names and takes longer.
Trainers and instructors on time. Pleasant people work here. Front desk always says hello and free to answer questions.
Good variety
Great Instructors for the water aerobics classes. Kirie M. and ("Fancy") Nancy H. are the best. Kirie actually gets in the water with us and does the exercises with us. Nancy gives a great, but strenuous regimen. The life guards are great-Professional, but friendly! They should all receive fee raises. You've lost excellent class instructors due to non competitive fees.
I recommend the Monty Ballard YMCA schedule an early class on Tuesday (8:00am) and a late (9:00am) class on Thursday. The classes are beginning to really fill up now that the weather is warmer.
Great teachers, really enthusiastic, lots of good classes, good exercise machines and equipment. I just wish there were a few more classes for seniors.
I love the programs but some are very crowded. (Pilates)
Classes were so good and all the personnel’s were so nice!!
Has a huge schedule with a broad range of activities and timing options, plus new, clean and spacious facilities and very friendly and helpful staff.
diverse exercise classes with talented, energetic instructors.
I just do the exercise classes. All I have tried are very good and all the instructors are good. People are friendly and helpful.
