Member Testimonials

I use the gym and walking track.

Awesome, steam and dry Sauna

Good program leaders.

The E-gym but it needs more direct management everytime I try to use it someone is doing multiple sets on one machine and they say "just go around me" or something to that effect. Not how it's supposed to work.

Everything

I talk up the YMCA all the time to people. I tell them how they helped me recover from a back injury once PT
released me.

The YMCA is very family

Clean locker rooms. Nice track. Friendly staff

Everything!

I have been a Y member for for 10 plus years, I'm visiting the Whitaker branch due to my regular Y having updates made too the facility and equipment. The Whitaker Y meets my needs. I use the Y for health reasons .... stay healthy and stable ..... muscles, bones etc. I'm a muscle builder .... when one in past 65 it is important to remain active and the Y meets my needs.

Love the exercise facilities and pool. Staff always helpful.

The variety of group fitness classes but we need more weights in group fitness room

The matirix brand ellipticals are great, as is the hot tub. The shower area could use more towel hooks, so that people can leave a towel there while at the pool, exit the pool, and go straight to the shower without dripping water in the locker room to grab a towel from the locker. Please add the matrix ellipticals to the 2 proof locations- theirs are old and rickety, and lack screens for playing card games. Overall the ymca is great- thanks.

I have been there only once so cannot comment on programs yet. But all the staff I met were very welcoming and helpful.

Swim lessons were cancelled at the last minute and my five year-old was so disappointed. The lifeguards on-duty were so kind and encouraging, and even offered to give him his swim test unprompted. He didn't pass (haha) but she made him feel great about it and made it a fun experience.

Many activities Friendly staff lots of equipment

Everything

Tai chi is great. Igym is wonderful.

We are enjoying the egym!

Employees helpfulness and friendliness

I did not participate in any programs. I used the weight room and I went swimming. For the weight room, I like the collection of Matrix machines. They were, for the most part, in good working order and were clean. The room was busy but there were so many machines that I did not have to wait much to use the machine I wanted to. I also like the view outside which is of trees in full fall colour.

For the pool, I found the water clean and warm. I was happy that a lane was available for swimming lengths even when a large group was busy doing aquatic exercises.

I like the E-Gym

Very good

Great family environment with activities across all age groups.

The Y creates many wonderful opportunities to not only benefit it’s members but for it’s members to benefit others and in the process help build a better community for everyone.

Great place to workout

Friendly staffs and good programs and clean facility.

Lots of work put options

It's not pretentious like most gyms, just people there exercising and getting healthy. Equipment is well maintained and is usually available even during the busy afternoon hours.

Spacious enough for a powered wheelchair to maneuver
