What do you like about our program and activities?

Both John and Nerijus have been very patient with my 5 and 10 year old kids, who got a late start to swim lessons due to their mom’s disability (brain cancer). It has been a tremendous help to me to be able to take them for lessons during the same time slot.

What do you like about our program and activities?

Very good and patient instruction of Mr Ed! We came from a different YMCA because they didn't offer classes on Tuesdays anymore and it was my only day available to bring the child to swimming lessons. This program offered all days.The first two lessons my child was resistant for a change. Then he quickly adapted and even surprised me how good he was swimming. At the age of 6 he can swim on the back and free style the whole pool independently. I was firstly concerned that it was too many kids in the class. But right now the ratio is perfect. I'm recommending this class to other parents.

There are so many opportunities to get exercise. You just need to find what you like. Classes are numerous and run all day into evening. Open floor areas, for weights or floor work, are varied - from busy to quieter less crowded spaces. The staff is welcoming and helpful.

Beautiful staff spirit from every staff at the Y! Fabulous selection, and quality of classes and programs!… The Y offers a strong sense of “belonging to a club” versus just going somewhere to take a class or signing your child up for a program somewhere…. The pool is fabulous! Well, staffed and organized, and the best pool to do laps in as well as learn to swim classes! Really the best around!

The soccer clinic coach is excellent. He keeps it fun and encouraging while firmly setting expectations - not an easy balance to strike. He's just great with the kids, and he fits a lot of learning into the practice. Highly recommend!

Why are you so likely to recommend the Y?

Generally, great facilities and nice staff. Think the policy of allowing staff and guests to wear outdoor footwear around the pool is inappropriate. The men’s changing room can have very dirty floors
