Group power is awesome! Looking forward to getting back to the workout routine after dealing with this Covid Pandemic.
I love the classes offered and the instructors are fantastic!
All classes Especially TRX and group power. Also like just going into the work out room and doing the machines in 30 mins. Very clean environment. Like that John is there always cleaning and making the area a great place to work out. Also appreciate all staff very friendly and nice. Is such a great place. So glad I switched here. A well run very clean environment to work out at. Thanks Chatham YMCA. Donna & Ron Bellefleur 😊😊

I absolutely love both pools for doing my aquatic workouts!
The staff are very welcoming and always helpful.
Gym and group fitness classes
It is apparent to me that members come first.
I am new to the YMCA and I am impressed so far with the staff and programs.
The aquatics program is my favorite part of the YMCA.
I enjoy remaining active and participate in the aquatics program - aquafit, and open lane swims and recreational swims, when I am able to attend.
I work shift work as following shifts - 0Phone number removed, 0Phone number removed, 1Phone number removed, 1Phone number removed. I also work 2 weekends per month. I do work 40+ hours per week.
I am beyond middle age ( 55) and have psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis throughout my skeletal system. Swimming is the most advantageous for my physical abilities. Other YMCA patrons do notice my skin condition on my hands and are aware that it is not contagious, I am not treated as a pariah, if a new member notices and says something, existing members will explain my condition. I am also very open to explaining this auto immune disease to any person who inquires. I am very aware of when I can and cannot enter the pool for my own safety of my immune system.
I have met many people at the YMCA, to which some have become friends in my life outside of the YMCA.
I enjoy the YMCA, a
I am happy that the group fitness classes have resumed and the times are decent for my schedule.
The time spent by staff explaining what is available and even what exercises/programs would be beneficial. They also took the time to demonstrate how to use specific workout machines and set me up with a personal program.
Pool availability
You have aqua fit 5 days a week and the water is 83 degrees.
Nice new facility
Very clean, friendly environment. Lots of different cardio equipment, weights, and space to choose from.
A very nice facility
I enjoy the low impact aerobics , turf time group, and of course Aquafit classes, and more recently, Cenergy. Having a leader and others sharing in the same or similar activity is quite motivating and helps us to challenge ourselves better, as when doing these activities solo, there may be a tendency to avoid ones we find more challenging or uncomfortable.
I use primarily the track and the leisure pool and always find them clean and well maintained.
We have family membership and we are happy with gym,pool, basketball activities. It’s so fun at YMCA .My kids always like to go there . Staff is very helpful :)
Professional knowledgeable and skilled staff are able to tailor the programs and activities to meet the needs of the participants.
I like the classes. Wish there was more trx classes
I like the various classes offered.
Clean and helpful staff
Pool program is great, having swim lanes available before and after Aquafit classes is key for me.
I love the group classes, the friendly staff, the friendly and diverse membership.
My favourite classes are group fight and group power. Seriously, they changed my life.
My family and extended family all find activities that work for all age categories. My teenage boys have friends that go so they love to attend.
Fun for the whole family
