What do you like about our programs and activities?

The YMCA is a gem! I love the ncredible variety of classes they offer—there’s truly something for everyone, whether you're into strength training, yoga, or high-energy cardio. The instructors are top-notch, bringing passion and expertise to every session.

The facility itself is spacious and well-equipped with modern gear that makes every workout feel smooth and efficient. But what really sets this place apart is the staff—especially at the front desk. They’re consistently welcoming, helpful, and make you feel like part of the community from the moment you walk in.

My absolute favorite class is Latoya’s Beats and Bikes spin. When she pulls out her special notebook and fires up her jamming playlist, you know you're in for a ride. Her energy is contagious, and she somehow makes every class feel like a party on wheels.

If you're looking for a place that combines great people, great workouts, and a great vibe—this is it. 🚴‍♀️🎶💪

What do you like about our programs and activities?

Everything looks great, but I love the locker room that leads to the pool, and the fact that the pool is saltwater. That’s a plus. “ I think it’s saltwater and not something else”. LOL

What do you like about our programs and activities?

I love the gym, I go every day and the employees are so nice.

I do have a few things that I would like to mention:

1- I believe that there has to be a stronger policy when it comes to the user of the phones while using a machine. Many of us have a tight schedule and go to the gym before work or school or whatever other thing and it is very hard to have to wait around for a machine because someone is using it but using their phone more. We either have to wait around or not use it at all.

2- The smith machine is not properly aligned and that interfere with how people position themselves. When using the machine, if you look at the right from leg of it, you can see that it is slightly pushed back. It is not a huge difference from the left leg, but it does make a difference specially when lifting heavy.

3- Speaking of the smith machine, I believe it would be a huge improvement to the facility to remove one of the barbell rack stations (the one next to the hip thrust machine for example) and replace it with another smith machine. I am sure I will not be the only one who will be delighted with this upgrade.

I provide this feedback with the intention of improving the experience for everyone and never with the intention to complaint.

Thank you so much in advance.

We love the child watch, especially the dedicated staff. I wish they had it available monday through friday in the morning not just monday to wednesday.

What do you like about our programs and activities?

These days I just use the pool.
Been absent for a long time and moving back slowly. Doing slow and varied stroke laps and just floating..wonderful.
The life guards are helpful with information on classes and turning down the music when asked. I like the varied designation of the lanes. The kid play time and splash pad look and sound wonderfully enjoyed!
Facility and staff are great
It would be helpful to have some written instructions on managing the water temperature in the showers and how to make sure it is turned off.
All in all I’m glad I’m back.
Thanks
