Member Testimonials
Is like family and I like that
Lots of variety and helpful staff.
The classes
All the machine and several of the classes
The people’s and staff.
I am part of the group that is waiting for the doors to open at 5:00 every morning. I like the recent reorganization of the weight room area that was conducted over October 26-27, it is better laid out for circuit training. I have not tried the new computerized machines that require a smartphone app as I can achieve my goals with the existing "dumb iron" equipment.
The facility is clean and the staff I interact with are always friendly, even at 5:00am!
The only issue I have is in the summer when I am swimming laps (1-2x/week for 45-60 minutes), the chlorine levels really cause me sinus issues. But this probably due to increased activity from the summer camp programs and swim lessons.
Clean, friendly, on top of maintenance with the gym equipment. A better station in the gym for Abs can be wonderful. But I like Duncan YMCA and all that they provide for the youth and elderly not matter the age Because we still young in heart.
Everyone (members and staff} has been been friendly and helpful. Late start but glad we now belong and look forward to learning more about all that you offer.
The y is therapy for me. Exercise and friends
Group ex classes, esp barre
I came to the Y to continue my Self-paced PT from an auto accident.
Very friendly and helpful staff - we all acheive greatness at our own level and pace.
The expansive weight room, the open area for stretching and big parking lot ( need a big parking lot - growth happens!) are all positives.
I continued my PT time and go in the morning to get in my time with the iron.
Shower in very well-kept shower and mens locker room and off to work i go.
thanks to the many staff that make the Y trips enjoyable - weekday or weekend!
Everything appears to be well organized; the people who work there are friendly and helpful.
I like the variety of exercise programs available . Also, i appreciate the variety of difficulty levels to accommodate a significant no umber of age and ability levels.?
EVERYTHING
Water aerobics
The water aerobics, pickle ball and body pump
The Y is so well equipped that it can accommodate all ages and physical conditions of its members. The prayer wall is a wonderful feature that allows spiritual help to those in need a friend!
really like the machine and free weight area
A wide variety of things to do. It’s is clean, has state of the art equipment, and has a very nice pool which is well maintained.
Love the warm water pool and your classes and other activities for seniors!
Recommend swimming at the Y to everyone, young and old!
Open, friendly place.
I like pickleball so they have a good schedule for that. I need to look into the class schedule over there more.
I find the classes convenient and fun. I have made many friends. The only problem I see is that often there are not qualified teachers. This has just been recently.

Friendly staff, nice facilities.
Love the coaches and staff! Coach Sarah is very responsive to emails and is a very dedicated coach
Your people!
Love that many are designed for seniors. Water aerobics have been very beneficial to someone suffering from arthritis in the knees.
I am 82 years old and I attend the classes for seniors. As far as I am concern it is the best way to be in good shape. Those classes are attended mostly by women. It is obvious that men should attend too
I love the openness of the facility to persons of all ages and cultures. The fitness and aquatics facilities are very good and the locker rooms are clean and accessible.
I also like the aquatics programs helping the SBISD lower schoolers learn how to swim for first and second graders. This is very strong for the community and will pay off in ways we will never see. They also support a local Special Olympics swim team along with their Youth Competitive Swim team...the Dragons. Finally, the water exercise programs are filled with people and music to make the exercise experience more enjoyable.
The Senior Size and Silver Sneakers programs are packed full and the participants not only get to exercise, but they make new friends. This is a hidden benefit along with the free coffee in the entrance. How about a Silver Fins program to teach seniors how to swim if they want to learn?
The Duncan Y is one you should visit and see all of the great fitness machines and classes if you want to improve your health. It is better to be seen in person rather than to read about it. There are fitness instructors always present to assist and answer questions. Classes for all ages and styles...Yoga, Zumba, Pilates, Boot Camp and general fitness at all times of the day...even 5:30 AM.
This is not a paid ad. I go there 5 times a week and believe this is more than a gym. It is my Happy Place!
the heated pool and all the exercise programs you have available
