Member Testimonials
This YMCA is cleaner than the other Ys but need more LifeGuards!
Like the table with programs and activities in Lobby.
Please update some of the exercise equipment upstairs ie - the band machines are too light and outdated. They were ok when they were in the other room for teens and old folks but have minimal resistance now or replace the bands.
More spin classes at various times would be nice.
Overall, happy with everything.
Really like the pools, programs haven't have been disappointing so far.
My husband and I are are both enjoying learning pickleball. The regular players are so welcoming, patient and willing to share tips, pointers and even their paddles.
My husband is building his endurance with the use of the competition pool.
Every activity is well planned and researched to give attendees information about each location. I recently had the wonderful experience at The Cleveland Orchestra. Kathy, our guide, was wonderful. She was very knowledgeable about the history of Cleveland and the uptown area also known as University Circle. She was full of spirit and set the basis for a delightful bus trip. I also take classes in senior aerobics and chair yoga. Karen is absolutely wonderful. She keeps us moving at a pace we can handle but doesn’t “baby” us during our time spent under her directions/expectations. I am looking forward to finding a time for water aerobics. So far, the water aerobics is scheduled at the same time and same days as the senior aerobics and yoga. I would and have recommended the YMCA to many. Thanks for doing such a great job for meeting the needs of us seniors!
Pickel Ball and swimming competition pool
The child care and family swim times!
Despite the multitude of swim teams using the pool, the YMCA has provided lap lanes for members. The lifeguards are courteous, competent, and professional. We like the friendly people at the front desk, especially Hunter and Bill.
The staff is friendly and helpful and it's very nice.
there is such a variety of classes
Love it
TRX class with Toni is great!
My activities are limited to use of the track and various exercises machines. As an 82 year old, I appreciate all that the Avon Y provides me to continue a safe, clean and comprehensive exercise program. The exercise biles are my favorite. I have not checked but I hope the sauna is open this winter.
