What do you like about our programs and activities?

I like the flexibility of the YMCA’s hours of being open to its members. It’s up to me to figure out the best time to go. I don’t like to wait for a treadmill being available, so I have to plan accordingly. That’s not the Y’s problem though.

What do you like about our programs and activities?

Not being dramatic but YMCA saved my mental health and physical existence last fall. I found myself at the bottom of the pit following some moves and upheaval in our lives. We joined the first week after moving to KY in September of 2024. We had moved to Lexington from out of state, into our new home, following my husbands retirement to be closer to our children. We were trying to get our "new" feet under ourselves when I fell into a depression/anxiety that I could not overcome. This had happened to me before but not to this level. Someone said go to Yoga, So I did, Mary and Connie were my first instructors, the breathing was my savior. Then someone said try Zumba. So I did. Danielle, led the class and I found my once coordinated steps were all a fumble, but I persisted. Then someone said try High, so I did. Amber, met us with "Hey do what you can, just keep moving". I moved, not coordinated but I moved. Then someone said, try Barre, so I did. Again, Danielle met us with such grace and wonderful stretch. Then someone said try weights, the gym and Pickle Ball. I did all of the above, and I fell in love with movement all over again. Unfortunately, a broken wrist, side lined me temporarily. Believe it when they say, "No ball is worth the FALL" and DON'T run backwards, nor do you want to play with the "big boys", when you are a little Novice gal. However the break did not stop me from entering those wonderful "Y" doors for the next Elliptical, walking path and floor stretching.
The endorphins kicked in, thus raising the serotonin and today, I'm alive. Not fearing my shadow and excited to do the next class. Hey Pickle Ball , I'll be back. But I will stay with my Courageous Novice group where we enjoy movement and a little "hit and giggle."
YMCA, you are a huge part of our lives. Keep doing you, Thank you for saving my me.
