People are so welcoming and friendly! Classes are well taught and there is a good assortment of types of classes for all levels of fitness!
Pickleball and Pool/Hot tub
I like the variety of exercise opportunities that are offered. I also enjoy the AOA activities such as the bus trips. The staff is friendly and helpful. I'm glad that I live close to the Y!
There are numerous classes for all ages.
The YMCA has all of the equipment and personnel to assist a very wide range of people needing physical and mental help and do take care of all of the equipment better than most of other places that are just gymnasiums.
Wonderful program. Great staff on the aquatics team. Wonderful swim coaches, swim lesson instructors, lifeguards, and admin. Beautiful facility. I always feel like my children are safe and learning so much.

Cycle class, kids swim lessons
Love the pool aerobics, water workouts and water volleyball
Nice variety
Everything!everyone I talk also really enjoys all the activities and equipment
Great instructors like Melanie Vitale make the Chardon Y stand out. She brings variety to every class keeping the class fresh and challenging. I’d like to see more classes with Melanie and wish there were more virtual classes taped with her like we saw during Covid.
The instructors are very kind and knowledgeable. My child is slightly older and was very unsure, by the second lesson he was in the water with his teacher. Plan to sign up again!

SO MANY to choose from!!!! Leaders are all "tuned in", educated, LOVE what they're doing and spread that on.... :)
