What do you like about our programs and activities?

+ The instructors at the Englewood YMCA are really top-notch.

+ The Front Desk staff is very pleasant and helpful - especially Stephanie. She always has a welcoming smile and a greeting for everyone.

+ Your membership director Lucy it’s always around doing a little of everything and helping everyone from the members to the other staff.

+ Your yoga instructor Audrey is amazing. I’ve lived in many large cities across the country and I can’t say I’ve met anyone better.

The Englewood YMCA is a great place. If I had one area to encourage you on, it would be that you may need more maintenance and housekeeping hours..

Thank you for all you do to make the Englewood YMCA a great place.

What do you like about our programs and activities?

Englewood gym setup works well, good selection of weights and equipment. Cardio equipment is also adequate.
Indoor pickleball is a significant draw, excellent option for using the courts which seem to be unused quite a bit.
Group classes are well
Structured.

What do you like about our programs and activities?

I attend mostly an exercise class three times weekly. It's an effort sometimes to get to the
Y, but on completion of the class I feel great.

Then, there is the water aerobics class. I was very fond of that. There is great diversity present
and the class offerings are fantastic.
