Member Testimonials
Although I can't always get in the slots that I want I can always find something else that I can do.
Friendly and helpful staff. A wide variety of silver sneakers programs to choose from.
Like the group ex classes. My only criticism would be instructors walking when class should start or later.
Friendly and always feel welcome
Variety
As a senior adult, there are so many activities promoting good health, such as exercise classes, yoga practices and tai chi to name a few in which I'm currently involved. The staff is always courteous and friendly. In these times of Coronovirus, all safety protocol is followed. The classes are kept small and everything is sanitized regularly, so I'm comfortable attending the facility.
But the absolutely BEST part of the HIllcrest Y is the sense of FAMILY among the class members and instructors. If you're a regular and you happen to miss a class or two, you can count on a class member or a member of the staff to contact you to check up. You're not just a number, you're a name and a face!
I enjoy the group fitness classes!
I really like the friendly staff and the fact they help me feel safe by constantly cleaning the gym equipment and the locker room.
Staff is excellent. Equipment is good. Schedules are very good. Costs reasonable.
I feel safe at the YMCA because all of the protocols are in place. There are a variety of activities to choose from. It's a social outlet that keeps you at a safe distance.
Employees are very friendly yet professional in their jobs.
Clean@ warm
Safety with all activities
Love the group excersices, especially Ester's Fitness After 50 classes. Ester makes the class so fun and enjoyable that I can't wait to attend the next one!
I love swimming and I really like being able to schedule my swim times. Also the Hillcrest staff are hardworking and professional and helpful. It is a pleasure to go there.
Through the pandemic, there is still a safe and great environment that allows me to have fun and feel comfortable whether working with staff, popping in on a group exercise class or just having a conversation with other members as we encourage one another.
Pool and Staff
The programs are very well designed for good participation and meeting the requirements for the covid crisis.
I like having access to the pool in a safe way. That's the only activity I do right now due to Covid-19. However, other members and I have noticed that sometimes whoever enters our pool appointments into the system doesn't finalize it so we BELIEVE we have appts but we're not in the system. Then when we arrive for our appt we don't have a lane and we're not on the schedule. I hope that is worked out.
There is a program for everyone in the household.
I go water joking and it really helps, and I was never a water person
Being able to reserve a swim lane
The cleanliness of the place and most of all the staff working there. Warm and friendly people.
I like that there are a variety of programs and activities to choose from based on levels of ability.
Keep up the excellent work! Love your exercise classes and your facilities!
I predominantly use the pool. Cannot say enough good things about the lifeguards and front desk staff who check me in and out. Helpful, attentive, know me by name. Call me if there's an opening on a day if I couldn't book a spot. Their commitment to our safety in the pool and during the pandemic has been amazing. Best decision I made in 2020 was joing the Hillcrest YMCA.
Everyone is friendly and welcoming. Facility is clean.
The staff is wonderful and equipment is top notch
