yoga
Pickleball and the equipment
The friendliness and professionalism of the trainers! They become friends
The teachers ate wonderful and caring
The class times are great! Everyone is so friendly!! Great place to be!!
Very older adult-centric, w/o being too slow, easy. Aerobics and weight training feature prominently; older people need these activities. The Sarasota downtown Y also provides a great place for people to meet, chat, play cards-to socialize.
I like the seated fitness class The instructor is excellent and I get a good workout. Zumba is also good workout. It is the busiest time at the Y and parking is challenging at times. I wish you had drumming.
Convenience of place and time

I really like the group classes. Also everyone is friendly including the people at desk, the instructors and members. This creates a very inviting atmosphere.
I love the indoor lap pool. Have been swimming there for years.
You have a large variety to choose from.
I only wish your steam room was larger.
You lockers need to be larger
Friendly people and I love the amount of classes that there are and the timeframes... l just wish that it wasn't so hard to be right on top of reserving a spot and that you only have a thirty six hour window to get in on the courses. The classes I want to take are at eleven and twelve during the day, which means I have to wake up at night to book the class to get in on one. 48 hrs seems to be a better timeframe... l Do like the "wait list" but there again, it takes me 45 minutes to get there and get inside. So a last minute spot, it doesn't work either.
Thank you for letting me give your opinions and have a great day!
I like the tremendous variety of classes taught by instructors who are well qualified, not teens with little experience. The personal trainers are simiarly very well qualified.
So much for everyone. Facility is great but agree machines could be maintained better or replaced.
