My family has been a member of the Y for over thirty years. We love it there and will keep our membership there as long as we can !
Silver sneakers
I have not participated in any programs or activities.
As an 'over 65' person with insurance that includes 'silver sneakers' coverage, I was thrilled to find that classes at my local Lakewood Y are essentially no cost. I've tried quite a few classes, and have focused on several that are the right level for me (the sweet spot for me being mid-way between 'chair yoga' and 'power yoga'). And even better, I can walk to the Y! My husband is also really happy with the Y, and has been going to the Tai Chi classes since last winter. Thank you for the huge variety of classes you offer!!
Vicki Yannie, and Staff are Delightful, Knowledgeable, and Supportive. Likewise, Staff throughout the Facility.
Trainer, Will Rembert is an Inspiring, Patient, Pro!
Variety and inclusiveness.
Friendly staff.
Have been taking classes for years. It helps me take care of myself.
Zumba (Natalia) and strength (Mary -Sunday and Jan on Mon eve )
Most important reason I joined the YMCA is that the Lakewood location has a hot sauna that maintains temperatures from 180 to 200 degrees Fahrenheit.
The Lakewood Y is a welcoming place for families and seniors, as well. The exercise classes are great, good instructors. The building is typically clean, nice environment.
Group exercise classes
so far i have only used the pool for arthritis and aerobics . the arthritis class is good, but i wanted a little more of a challenge so i started the aerobics class. Maureen is a gem and is very helpful in giving alternative movement for my shoulder and knee. She is excellent at paying attention to everyone in the class.
I like that there are so many classes that are free with membership and that we don't have to sign up for them in advance!
Programs are effective. Facility is very well equipped and managed.
Kids and day time classes and yoga
The programs and activities are amazing I love coming there family orientated place
They keep me in shape
I like your Silver sneakers and chair yoga classes!
The fitness programs and exercises are all vetted by people with expertise in anatomy, kinesiology, and human development. Health, not profit, is in the forefront. I find every staff member at the Y to be friendly too.
I did not participate in any programs or activities. I merely toured the facility which was beautiful.
