Member Testimonials
Increased hours, especially the functional studio, opportunities for personal training sessions, variety of programs
Since I am older, the water programs are important to me. I can exercise but not injure myself and my joints. Many people come and do what they can do, it doesn't matter. All of the instructors are wonderful people and interested in helping everyone. The staff at the Y is very friendly and greet you when you come in. They now have water programs 5 days a week. There are other programs that my friends attend and it is easy to spend 3 hours there.
My wife and I love the classes and that you are adding more times for classes and childcare. The facility is always clean and the stuff is always friendly and helpful.
Friendly staff and teachers. Clean pleasant facility.

We’re so thankful for the miracle league and child care on Sunday’s! It’s more than a gym. It’s a family at my ymca. You’re changing lives. Thank you for everything you all do.

I like the group classes, particularly Bodyflow and Yoga. Specifically, the ones led by Elfi, Ellen, Ginger, Maria, and Renee. I've also enjoyed Zumba classes led by Aisha and Yoko. As important, the child care is excellent. Debbie is excellent, as are the other child care providers. I feel comfortable that my child is secure and in a safe, clean environment which aids in learning and creativity expression. My 6 year old loves to go to the "Y" and that makes working out with a rested mind so much easier. The staff that is in the equipment room is helpful as well.
I would only request regular yoga or Bodyflow to be added on Tues and Thurs in addition to the current schedule. :)
I like the way the reservations for pool are set up. Maybe when you open up more, you can keep reservations till say noon then open up for all (kids) and then from 6 till closing back to lanes for the workers. Just a suggestion. I know a lot of us like this setup.
I like that you have good instructors who give you attention.
I love child watch. The employees are amazing with my daughter even on her hard days they manage to get a smile on her face when I pick her up.
Great instructors and lots of classes. The new Y is beautifully done. We enjoy the classes and the use of a pool all year. Couldn't be happier to be back at the YMCA.
Family Friendly, Faith encouraging environment.
Social interaction and camaraderie among class members.
The Lake Houston YMCA is beyond belief. I have been a member off and on for 30 years. Mostly on. The Y has the right atmosphere! No music. No bad behavior. And great equipment. Plus, a wonderful lap pool. I remember when the Y first opened here. Boy has it grown. What I love the best is the wall of glass on the 2nd floor workout area. It is so nice to look out at the pine trees and the forest. What a treat!!! I love it there. I just wish I could get there more often.
I'll be out for a while because of recent surgery, but I like being able to swim laps there. Plus everyone on staff is friendly and courteous. I like to be able to shower and head out to work from there, which your program facilitates. I also like the fact that you haven't forgotten you are Christian, and have a prayer area (scripture).
Everything!
Would like to see the YMCA open on Sunday.
