Member Testimonials
I only utilize the swimming pool 3x a week. The older life guards (Sam and Donna) are real friendly and often times up for a nice chat. They really know how to make you feel welcome.
So do the staff at the front desk.
The pool and dressing area look clean. II noticed that the water in the pool gets checked regularly.
I definitely recommend the Y to my friends.
Great coaches and instructors! I have asthma and they’re really considerate to that! I also love having an open court in the mornings for basketball super awesome to my time schedule! Thanks ymca Bradenton!
The variety and times that senior citizens can do comfortably. The location. The staff.
Recommendation:
The majority of senior classes are all at the same time. 10-11 am. So that prevents us from participating in a variety. No parking at 10. Tons of parking at 11. Everyone leaves. Spread out the classes.
Add chair yoga to more than one time per week.
Wide variety of different workouts and exercises
We particularly like the Lunch and Learn. The presentations are very informative and usually pertain to seniors. We can learn a lot from attending these sessions.
Friendly staff, modern equipment, clean facilities, good variety of equipment
Lap swimming
Cynthia Munoz does an excellent job securing topics of interest for the lunch and learn.
I love the instructors and classes in aqua fitness. The instructors provide necessary fitness for seniors and people with disabilities.
The shower and change rooms are always clean and kept up.
The large membership and participation in classes is indicative of a well run facility.
Pool
Weights and cardio equipment.
You offer a wide variety of sports, Water Aerobics, games, senior gatherings, children, gatherings. This is altogether wonderful for families and singles.
Yoga with Barb
I enjoy the body pump classes that Deb leads. I work during the day so I am not able to attend the other body pump classes. But Deb's are excellent. I joined the women on weights 2.0 the 2nd time around. Incredibly good investment in myself. Your new staff addition with the classes on Monday, Wednesday and Saturday. Incredible workouts. Christopher is supportive, encouraging and knowledgeable in what he is teaching. I wasn't able to attend the first nutrition class the Y offered but I really hope more are offered on Saturdays when I can attend.
Love the available classes for all fitness levels and the instructors
Everybody is friendly from the staff to the customers. It is am old facility, but you do your best to keep it presentable.
