Member Testimonials
The YMCA offers programs for all ages and abilities. I'm always greeted with a smile by the staff and they are friendly and courteous. The people who work out there enjoy the facility and seem genuinely interested in each other and each other's well-being. It's not uncommon for groups of people to meet and have coffee after their workout; it's a social place as well as physical. The only reason I give it a "9" is that some people prefer huge workout facilities where people go to impress rather than work out.
Always keep the YMCA as the same Christian based foundation for which it was established and have the Bible on display.
Variety of workout classes. Very friendly staff.
The AOA classes are great!.
I love the fact that the facility is cleaner than the other chain of gyms, including the restroom, the equipment is up to date . I love the that it allows me to exercise my right arm and it is the same piece of equipment I used in physical therapy. The YMCA has a great many opportunities for all age groups.
LOVE Mistie & Kristin and now Janet. AOA & Silver Sneakers classes are great, especially the chair yoga.
Late hours and variety
You have a variety of classes for group exercise programs. I enjoy the camaraderie.
Very good machines and excellent staff like Shanti who is extremely knowledgeable, kind and very helpful
The group Tai Chi is great.
Individual physical training and the Y crew and the people who use the facility.
I mostly enjoy the active older adult classes. There is enough variety in the instructor approaches to the exercises that I keeps me challenged.
Les Mills group fitness classes. The music and moves are perfectly matched.
Childrens room and wellness center
I have sampled a few classes. With one exception the music in the barbell classes is far too loud, so I stopped attending. Likewise with the yoga during the week: the instructor has no idea of how to establish a proper mood for a yoga class, which is supposed to set a tranquil, meditative, and restful atmosphere. She plays the music too loud. The yoga teachers on Sunday afternoon are much better.
Family and friends interaction.
I like the machines available but a number of the headphone connections do not work properly.

The facility’s friendliness
Hours; service times
I am in excellent health. I give going to the Y four times a week all of the credit. Not only do I get to do aerobics with a super instructor (Misty) and line dancing with an excellent teacher (Shelia), I have also developed so many friendships!!!!
I love the variety of activities that are offered at the Fort Bend YMCA. The staff is always courteous and pleasant, and the facility is clean and well-organized.
Working out.
I like that the pool is now open all year around
Fun activities and family oriented...
People are friendly. It’s clean and constantly being cleaned. The members are very friendly. Great atmosphere.
We like everything about Fort Bend YMCA EXCEPT ONE THING- Some teachers in mostly zumba and ujam classes set the music to real LOUD which makes it to be heard from the whole building. It is bad for the people in these classes and it is also bad for people in the building specially for people waiting in front of these classrooms for the next class in the same room.
So please set a decibel level for all YMCA approved by some medical experts so that music played it will be loud enough to stimulate teachers and her students but it will be safe for everybody's ears.
We have been complaining for years to individual teachers and management but not much changed. Hope this time around someone will listen to us. Or at least make a survey to see how the ymca community fels about this issue.
Thank you,
convenient and flexible times.
Good exercise leaders for Silver Sneakers—Misty and Kristine.
Excellent equipment for cardio and strength training. Plenty of classes Zumba and Pilates are 2 of my favorites
