What do you like about our programs and activities?

The variety of group activities and the variety of strength and cardio machines is amazing. I love the pool and a lap lane is either available or open in just a few minutes. The instructors I have encountered are also excellent. And I would say since Covid, everything is cleaner.

What do you like about our programs and activities?

An excellent variety of classes. The instructors are friendly; directions and suggestions on how to make the most of each class are offered. The equipment (mats, weights & blocks) - available and provided by the Y. The Wellness Center has a complete and challenging array of machines. The people at the front desk are knowledgable and always ready with a "hello". Donna's craft classes are fun. The restrooms are clean and well maintained.

What do you like about our programs and activities?

I only go to the Y for the body pump classes, but the app is so glitchy you don’t know whether you’re going to get in. You have to hit reserve multiple times.

Would give 10:10 if you didn’t keep raising prices.

The rock climbing wall needs mats on the ground when children are climbing. Not safe to have bare concrete floors under them. Have told staff multiple times.

I had a shoulder replacement and the variety of and high end weight circuit training is mandatory for keeping my shoulder strong. It is a bridge from physical therapy to having the shoulder as strong as possible.

I love Jenna Trumpler! She is making me stronger. She is highly caring and motivational. She makes sure I gain muscle without injuring myself. She doesn’t make me feel like a 70 year old! I can’t say enough good things about her. Working out with her is fun! MB

What do you like about our programs and activities?

I love most of the classes but am so frustrated to have to set my clock and rule my schedule just so I can push the reserve button on the dot of the hour when reservations open. More time slots should open more days per week to accommodate. Classes that don’t attract almost full classes should be sidelined to make room for more popular classes and instructors.
