What do you like about our programs and activities?

I think you need to see which classes fill up quickly and determine whether you need to have a larger room or more classes like it through out the day for members to go to. I love the Les Mills Body Pump and Grit classes. I would consider taking spin again if it was in a different room. It’s a small cave in there and the participants get way too hot and sweaty for the size of the room. It’s really unappealing. I think that dark room would be more suited to yoga.

What do you like about our programs and activities?

well I just use all the machinery in there the last few months of our new membership and so far it's been great! I love the fact that I can come in on Saturday morning and go back and shoot baskets in the gym after I'm done. There's nowhere in town you can do that!. So there's a lot of extras at the y that I'm really enjoying, but I don't participate in any extra programs or classes. However my wife does and the only knock that we have is that the darn things fill up so quickly! I guess there's a lot of us and so few classes and people to run them. If there's a way to expand that we would love it! So there you have it

What do you like about our programs and activities?

I enjoy using the pool 3x a week to exercise w/o taking part in a class.
Besides the cleanliness of the water and the surrounding areas, I like the friendly life quards, the front desk people, and overall atmosphere.

What do you like about our programs and activities?

New machines look good to attract more members. Good strategy, I hope membership fee would be less for senior people. One complaint is that TVs are removed and nothing to watch while doing stationary bike. I wonder if new TV monitors will be set back soon or permanently removed???

What do you like about our programs and activities?

I’m a member at the Venice location. I like Spin classes the best. I have a billing issue that I would like to document. I recently updated my credit card with your billing dept. However, instead of charging my usual monthly fee of $62, I was charged $92 - an additional $30 for the expired card. I spoke with Mandy Barton (?) and staff in your Palmer Ranch location and was promised a refund of the $30, indicating it would be deducted from my next monthly dues. Please confirm this to me in writing at your next convenience. Thank you, Name removed
