It is easy on my joints
My trainer Bryan is excellent and so very happy with how he is training me.
Variety and access
I love Kelvin my personal trainer. He pushes me beyond what I think I am capable of and I am amazed at how strong I’ve become.
I love the water aerobics class!
The private training sessions are ideal for my needs.
The have a variety of classes. I particularly enjoyed the strength training program. I no longer feel intimidated by the machines, lol.
I am only working with Bryan right now and he is great. Very understanding and doesn’t push too much, which is a problem that I have had with trainers in the past.
I use the treadmill some on my own. The gym itself is clean and spacious enough for everyone.
Good facility and very friendly personnel. The atmosphere is inviting.
They are fun healthy and full of nice people
Having never used a gym before, I must admit I was intimidated. But what a pleasant surprise to find the Ragsdale YMCA to be such a warm, welcoming environment. Everyone I have interacted with has been encouraging, supportive, and just plain nice. Based on my experience, I would highly recommend working with a personal trainer for older adults like myself. Special thanks to Julie, Kelvin. Carl and Christy for being so helpful.
There a wide variety of programs for different age groups.
Aqua combo
Nice staff and weight room
Instructors and classes
Good workouts and nice knowledgeable teachers
The staff, the programs are great. Hot water and water pressure in showers is a problem when commodes are flushed.
Im hoping aerobic fitness classes (see Pool Fit page) that don't have an additional cost will be added at some point.
Wide variety of classes for many different fitness levels. Class leaders help to adjust routines for individual needs too!
The weight room is big and awesome!! Lots of cardio machines to suit different needs!

A great variety of activities and programs.
Friendly staff, clean facility.
Group exercise is great at the Ragsdale Y. I love Jen K's and Kim SP's classes especially - HIIT, Step, Barre, and Cardio Dance.
I just took my first BodyPump Heavy class and enjoyed it.
Every time I walk into the Y I feel welcome. The staff are warm, helpful, and friendly. AND the people who, like me, are there to get a bit healthier are awesome. We speak cordially to each other, smile and are polite--something I no longer take for granted yet experience every time I visit. Thank you
Everyone is friendly, good variety of work out options. For the most part can get to machines that you want.
The Ragsdale Y is the best Y. Everyone who works there is so friendly. I have taken classes and now am doing personal training, I enjoy going. It feels like a community. I will drive out of my way to go to that Y versus the one closest to my house.
The instructors are knowledgeable and continuously share with their class participants what to do and not do in order to participate in the classes safely, to get the most benefit out of them and not hurt themselves. So, so many people who attend the Y are friendly and welcoming. It is a great place to work out!
I like the pool
The staff are always positive and helpful. I like that you have programs for all people and ages.
