Swimming pool and gym
I take two Forever Well Balance classes a week.
I’ve made some very nice friends there. I have a different instructor for each class. I like that.
Each class is well paced- sit in a chair and exercise- stand by the chair for exercise.
Love the pool. Flexibility of hours
They do a great job of setting up the pickleball courts each day it’s on the schedule.
The staff and class instructors are very welcoming. The equipment is clean and in excellent condition.
You offer a variety of group classes at several times, I feel like I am welcome to try any class
Pool setup is great
Group exercise and water areobics
Clean, several varied class opportunities!
There is something for everyone if they want to participate in the activities. We enjoy the staff as they are very helpful and easy to talk to.
Nice variety of programs, classes and activities. Great instructors that motivate you.
Hello, I’d really love for Shadowbend center to have Les Mills or cycle classes in the morning like 5 AM or 6 AM please!
The workout areas, the stretching areas, and the pool. Clean functional locker room is also important.
Nice clean facility with good amenities.
The varied programs and friendliness of the staff. Something for every age.
Variety of group exercise classes. But I still wish you wouldn’t have your low impact combo on the same days… wish one class was Monday-Wednesday and the other Tuesday-Thursday instead of both Monday-Wednesday
Enjoy all the instructors.
I like the indoor pool. Have gone to Ashlane YMCA since Shadowbend temporarily closed. I don’t really like swimming laps in the sun and warm water. Also i find the lanes at Shadowbend are more roomy and there are more of them.
I like the old-style gym feel to Shadowbend. Those who want something more modern and trendy can go to Branch. This feels like what I grew up with.
Small, intimate class sizes. Teachers are great.
There is something for everyone and every age.
Pool programs
Later time for seniors
Instructors and staff are enthusiastic and helpful. The class times and schedules work great for me!
Great classes, instructors, friendly people.
I just make use of the gym and I like it very much.
It has plenty of equipment and a relaxed environment.
I like the atmosphere and people at the "Y". They are friendly and I enjoy working out there.
The instructors, their friendliness and competence. I like having 3 balance classes and am going to try and go to all three. Its a comfortable place for me and I always see someone I know. The dressing rooms are clean.
Kim Cox is a great personal trainer. My 3 year old granddaughter is enjoying private swimming lessons with Tiffany.

Many of the lifeguards play music (using their own phones/playlists). This is nice! I also like the separate entrance to the pool so you don't have to walk so far. I didn't like doing away with the lane reservation system in the pool at first, but I've changed my mind completely and now like it.
