Member Testimonials
I love body pump, tone, yoga, and spin. I wish there was even more of these, but I am grateful for what is offered.
Andrea is a very kind and knowledgeable coach. I have learned to let go my fear of swimming and enjoying being in the water. Also, I would love to have private classes to take my skills to the next level
Appreciate the EGYM and am grateful for the new signs to be courteous and move on. Would be good to add that people wipe the machines for the next person. Thank you.

I enjoy my older adult classes but wish they were offered more times a day. I also wonder will you be getting any art classes again or knitting and crochet.
Instructor speaks clearly.
Andrea is amazing! I am so happy with the progress I have made in the first 3 weeks of the class, I can't wait to see where I end up by the end. Andrea is relentlessly positive, encouraging, and motivating.
The variety of programs that you have for everybody or ages family individuals groups, etc. I am a senior and I like the fact that you take the silver sneakers or the Medicare Medicaid and or insurance program payments or discounts given

Community, Egym, yoga class
The swimming program at the Y has been great! The teachers are knowledgeable and friendly. My only complaint would be how hard it is to get into classes because they fill up quickly.
Love the classes and the members. Everyone makes me feel welcomed.
The atmosphere is very friendly and supportive. The classes have been wonderful. Well organized, lots of options and welcoming atmosphere.
Everyone is very friendly and knowledgeable. There are great group fitness classes. And I really enjoy the eGym workout system. It's an excellent program for consistent weight training with built-in guidance. I've never been as consistent and successful with my resistance training before in my whole life. But now I'm a regular on the weight machines and I'm seeing results!
Everyone is very friendly and knowledgeable. There are great group classes. And I really love the eGym workout program. It is an excellent method for doing consistent, guided strength training.
Really enjoy the friendly and helpful staff and the newly upgraded spinning cycles and strength training equipment.
The pool is larger than other swim schools in the area and the training program appears be better received by our son.

The instructor was a really good teacher!
