Member Testimonials
Diverse programs for everyone and very friendly!
The pool schedule needs to show all activities going on every hour in the pool and how many lap pools are available.
If the pool is closed for any reason it would be nice to know before I drive 25 minutes to get there.
Location and Silver Sneakers.
I wish the hair dryer in men’s locker room is fixed or replaced. It’s been inop for 2+ years already??
So much to do.
Love egym
Lots of classes to take. Most of them are good times thru out the day. Like the instructors. Like the machines. Seem well taken care of.
I use the cardio machines and the weight machines and I’m generally pleased. My only suggestion is to add more of the ones that always seem to be in use. I’ve adjusted my workout times to see if I can be there at a time when they are not in high demand.
Adult water aerobics classes and swimming.
Good instructors , friendly ymca members
The facility is conveniently located for me. The masters program is top level. The coach is great. The facility is usually neat and clean although parts of the facility are old and needs updating. This is particularly true of the mens shower and hot tub area. Overall, I am happy with the program.
We love our YMCA family and friends. Although flag football wasn't as awesome as we'd planned the coaches amd families who did show up made it it a great season. My children had fun and made lots of friends.
Anthony was very friendly & provided clear and easy to follow instructions on how to use the EGYM equipment!
Easy to participate in, good instructors.
We have enjoyed the volleyball program. If we did not live so far, I am sure we would be there everyday.
Pickleball and Forever Well Programs - Favorites are Chair Yoga with Liann and Alexandra's M/W 10:30 class (was Gentle Stretch and name change to Combo Cardio-I think)
They are Christian based. Staff is dedicated to up holding the Y’s commitment.
Forever Well and Silver Sneakers.
I appreciate the friendly staff and clean facilities, and very much enjoy the eGYm program and spin classes with Shelley, Clive and Francis!
I love the egym, but it is often too crowded.
My favorite classes are the water aerobics and low impact cardio!! Great instructor!!
love the YMCA at Shadowbend, thanks for the early pool hours to lap swim. I do miss Mr. Olen at the Swim check in desk.
We use weight room, treadmills, bikes, egym, and attend some formal classes. All equipment in these areas fairly clean. However, classroom floors need to be cleaned better. Also, bike equipment in bike room needs a thorough cleaning. There is dust on the legs of the machines that is never cleaned. Most people who use the equipment clean the top of the bikes where they touch. However, not everyone takes the time to wipe down the bikes. TVs in this area need to be programmed - usually only one tv on, sometimes neither one. We didn’t mind the recent dues increase, however, if we are willing to accept this price change, you can insure all equipment is cleaned thoroughly and that tv’s work. Thank you.
Great Instructors. Excellent facilities - pool, weight room, cardio equipment, cycles, etc.
Trainers are great for PT. EGYM is great but often crowded. Thanks for seniors programs.
Good senior classes.
I go to the weight machine exercise room early MWF. It is perfect as are the staff members who oversee it. Thanks for the great work and friendly service each of them provides. Thank you! Don Last name removed.
Great coaches and staff
Love the e-gym equipment. Fun pickleball group
There is something for everyone. One does not feel intimidated, everyone is friendly, helpful and encouraging.
I just do water aerobics and I love it!
I haven't been a member of the Y for very long. I really like the egym, it is great for someone who knows very little about working out. I also like the variety of classes available.
And all the staff members have been very welcoming and helpful, answering any questions about the Y.

I like the eGYM. And the variety of other classes.
The staff person who comes through the eGYM area could help by asking people if they understand what to do. And encouraging people to move through the machines.
