Member Testimonials
That you have several senior programs. Wish you still had an active senior adult director.
Super supportive and affordable for a young family being able to regain strength and build connections after having our first child
Good programs and activities. In addition to that, the facility itself is well-lit, well maintained, always clean and welcoming.
Love the pool and workout area. Never too crowded. Very clean. Friendly staff.
I love that the pool is consistently opened for lap swims. I also enjoy the silver sneaker classes
Silver Sneaker classes especially dance
I come in from time to time to swim whirl pool or sauna. Clean and friendly. In and out <3
Variety of offerings
In the last 3 years alone, I have had 3 major hip operations, including a prosthetic, Melanoma removal, 2 hernia operations, kidney stones, depression.... just SO MUCH challenge, and discouragement for this "older" father of 5.
But enough of the bad stuff. In December 2023 I decided enough was enough.... I purchased a family membership for Christmas, and have not looked back. Though I have had some overzealous recovery days I have been "working out" and enjoying basketball with my kids. Machines are always available and operating properly and the building is always kept so clean by the staff.... just love it.
Speaking of staff: Joshua, Will and Chris have been so helpful in my navigating through choices to strengthen and building flexibility for my rebuilt (left) hip. After prosthetic was installed, my tendons tore 2 times requiring 2 additional surgeries to re-attach, creating huge recovery times and mental setbacks. I didn't want that to happen EVER again. They have been encouraging, sharing good tips and exercises, and I could NOT be more happier with my investment in the membership at my Lakewood YMCA.
Local and a great family environment. What more could this Dad want for his family, Tim
I haven't tried programs yet, go 3 times week to use treadmill, do hour of weight machines... and signed up for a bus tour this summer. I look forward to coming to my Lakewood Y because of friendly staff, relaxed atmosphere, family friendly focus.
Never thought I would look forward to exercise so that says a lot!!
I have not participated in any programs yet, but I have interacted with program staff at the Lakewood OH branch and they are amazing. super kind and welcoming.
I like the classes and the instructors are friendly and informative.

Thank you for the Pilates, Barre, Rebound, and Spin classes! Thank you for your swimming pools, hot tubs and saunas! Absolutely love the YMCA!
I use the Lakewood Y for group classes. The instructors are fantastic and the times of the classes are varied and convenient.
The early hours & the strength training room setup.
The Lakewood Branch of YMCA has always been a great place to work out, get a good sweat going & forget about the problems out there above & beyond our power.
When I leave, refreshed & rejuvenated I can try to face the problems created globally by the international ruling elite.
In the absence of the Soulless greedy power, control junkies, we would find a way to get along.
The YMCA is based in Christianity, and Jesus is the Prince of Peace.
So his lessons of ' Love in Action '-- seeking peace should be paramount in our thoughts
