What do you like about our programs and activities?

I like the prime time classes, zumba and line dancing and the fact that you can go to the different ymcas with your membership. The quality of the instructors is very important to the class. Palmer ranch has some excellent instructors for Prime Time. The Euclid branch has been very spotty for prime time on Monday and Wednesday. It is why I no longer attend those classes.

What do you like about our programs and activities?

I find the weights and machines easy to use. My only complaint is that many people pull out their phones between sets and then get totally distracted in a video or something and then they occupy the machine for way longer than they would have. It's not unusual for someone to sit there for 15 minutes! I would really love it if there was a policy and some signage that phones cannot be used while on the machines.

Many programs cater to the predominant demographic living here, those 70 and over. Those classes provide a community which fosters mental connections as well as the strength training.

What do you like about our programs and activities?

My daughter, April Terpstra, are thoroughly enjoying the Venice YMCA because we are always greeted with a smile and "good morning" and when we leave always "have a good day". The facility is clean and well maintained. I enjoy all of the machines offered and the classes are so varied that one would never have a problem finding something suitable. I am very happy with our Venice Y.
