I like that you keep your equipment up to date and I enjoy everything at the gym. I never have to wait in line.
Gym is great . Facilities are great
Everything!!!
Exercise equipment, fitness staff, group exercises and the overall appearance of the facility.
Something for everybody.
Great classes for Seniors and Socializing with peers.... fabulous.
So important as we age. Losing interaction with others due to divorce, death, loss of housing, and other catastrophic events can impact health in many ways. Offering connections with peers and others is a good way to remain engaged and vibrant.
Infant care & teachers are amazing! I love all the new exercise equipment as well!
Great program for seniors.

First and most of all the Silver Sneakers classes. Debbie and Denise are two fantastic instructors. They are knowledgable and offer a variety exercises. The AOA director offers many activities to participate in and the friends I have made are valuable.
What is not to like. Preventative medicine and enjoyment of fellowship. I have been a participating member since 2004, Beginning with AOA classes.

Pickleball
Amazing instructors and group exercise classes
I enjoy the workout facility and the equipment.
The majority of the people that go there in the mornings like I do:
- are polite
- follow the rules regarding wiping down the equipment after utilizing the equipment
- putting up equipment if they got it down/out
- keeping cell phone activity to a minimum
I just do the Treadmill and the Cycles and they are great.
I am enjoying the machines at this time. Thank you.
Perry YMCA
Pros
• The staff at the front desk are very pleasant and helpful.
• The women’s locker room is always clean.
• The water aerobics instructors lead good workouts and are open to suggestions.
• I appreciate the AOA programs such as the one about senior fraud.
Cons
• At times when a water aerobics class is canceled because a sub could not be found participants are allowed to use the pool at the scheduled time, but not the YMCA’s water aerobics equipment (noodles and weights). We were told we are allowed to bring our own equipment. So you can’t find a sub, OK that happens, but to expect members to purchase and bring their own equipment when the Y has the equipment is ridiculous. The lap swimmers have access to the kick boards. We pay the say member fees as the lap swimmers and should have access to the water aerobics equipment. We were told we could use the kick boards, while the noodles and weights are just sitting in the pool storage room. I would like a response to this issue. My email address is: Email address removed
• The gentleman who tests the pool temperature always takes the sample of the pool water next to the jet where warm water is being added to the pool. So when he says the temperature of the pool is 83 degrees, yes it is 83 degrees in that spot. He needs to take the temperature away from those jets. The temperature in the middle of the pool is much cooler!! . I would like a response to this issue. My email address is: Email address removed
