Pool/ steam room , Jacuzzi, cute friendly lifeguards, and clean men locker room!
I like the aerobic class options for older, active members. That said, I stopped going this year while snowbirds were here and you increased the class size. It felt dangerous to have so many people moving in that size room. I hope you will reduce the number allowed to register/participate.
variety of classes, good instructors, pleasant staff
Excellent Zumba and Sit and Fit classes!!
I wish there were even more afternoon / evening classes🙏
I love the Nautilus and the spa features of steam, sauna, and jacuzzi … I also love the variety of classes offered
Love the group exercise classes.
Love the selection of group exercise & strength classes, especially the small one for women. Exercise machines are updated and available. The Y is a Friendly and clean facility. Though there are some ongoing issues with pool & AC temperatures, members are aware of efforts to address them.
Close to home with lots of easy parking. Insurance started covering my membership, which helps offset the expense of my private group class.

We use the Y for weight lifting primarily. You have everything we need, and more.
Love Tom’s classes. Have been in his classes. Since he started at our Y many years ago.
YMCA have activities for all ages , I would like to have more Taichi class during the week. After Five. Most of the people finish work ,
Thank you.
Late am and early pm classes weekdays. Positive staff attitudes. Easy access locker rooms and coffee.
I use the weights and pool, which I like both.
I’m not sure if this survey is going to ask for improvements so I’ll share them here.
The weights need improved maintenance with keeping dumbbell weights tight and pins in the machines. I can’t figure out why people like to take pins for the weight stacks. The Smith machines need maintenance on their bearings as well.

The senior exercise classes. I like them around 11:00am. Perfect for old bones to get moving.

Personal Trainer Jason is the main reason I go to the gym.
He is awesome.
Frequency and diverse choices.

The instructors are excellent
The monthly fees are much too high and you don't have Silver Sneakers or any senior discount!!
I mainly walk on the track and do machines but have taken classes when I was younger and they were excellent.
Would like more of a lounge upstairs.
