Member Testimonials
You have a very well run facility with lots of equipment. I also enjoy the steam room, which is not offered at many of the other facilities I am familiar with.
Our programs and teachers and staff are so much fun. They work hard so that we can have fun and make new friends 🤗
Lots of class choices.
And I love the pool!!
Abundance of exercise equipment
Pilates with Jamisue is the best!!
Facility is very clean. Equipment (I use) is in good working order. Staff is friendly and helpful.
Enjoy your pool immensely. However, do see that it needs a good cleaning. Are the filters working? Is the pool being cleaned regularly ? Appears the pool paint is flaking off too in various parts.
We love the Y.
Can you install a bathing suit spin dryer in the locker rooms?
I haven't been there long enough to enjoy any of the programs or activities. But I love your gym! State of the art and nice and clean. Staff is wonderful.
I appreciate the reformer pilates classes, My Zone, and TRX
I enjoy every class I have been to (especially Body Pump, Zumba, Zumba toning, Cardio Drumming, Body Shred, and Barre). The instructors are top notch. The equipment is good and the workout rooms are clean. The (audio/speaker) sound in the workout rooms is very good and it is always a comfortable temperature for woking out. There is a wide variety of equipment to use on both floors. The locker room is always spotless; kudos to the cleaning staff. I REALLY appreciated getting a 3 day free pass for my daughter and her husband when they were here recently. They said it was nice to work out while on vacation. I also appreciate the flexibility of seasonal hold on my membership when I travel north for the summer. Overall, I would give the Venice YMCA an A+. I cannot see any room for improvement.
Positive attitudes of the instructors, and the people at the main desk
friendly staff, clean facility, quality and number of programs
Great variety of equipment and all very safe
FRIENDLINESS
GOOD HOURS
VARIETY OF CLASSES
EXCELLENT INSTRUCTORS
CONVENIENT LOCATION
I only use the free weights.
Love Jan’s class and the socialization. Met some wonderful people there.
This location is very clean, has great employees, and a really good selection and quality of classes.
Friendly community oriented
I joined to use YMCA's beautiful indoor racquetball courts as a way to get my 70-year-old body into a more limber and ache-free condition. My brother-in-law and I play two 1-hour sessions a week. It has improved overall flexibility and cardiovascular health (I no longer get winded). It has really improved the lingering pain and stiffness in the hip that I had totally replaced 2 years ago.
All I do is swim
Great variety of classes & excellent teachers-wish signups were earlier than 10pm & could signup for a week of classes-not every day-need to set my alarm every night since I go almost every day.
Group yoga, line dance, and Zumba
Great facility for all activities.
Multiple number of different classes and activities.
Everything. Great people great equipment lots of programs.
Lots of cardio and weight machines. Nice pool.
I love the bodypump and bodyworks classes. And I like that you offer some of them early in the morning so that the people that work can get a workout in before they go to work. Instructors are great!!
The swimming pool is clean and often has a lane available. The fitness machines are a good variety. The people are friendly.
1)Favorites: Jan Bousen's classes, Sherry's classes, Stacey's chair yoga classes. Going.to try Line Dancing very soon.
2) Havevrequested a TaiChi classescwhich l know would be well attended because of its tremendous health benefits in our older population. Hope one comes soon.
3) Would.love a stretch class at 3pm at the end of our exercising day as well the one 1 in existence at the beginning of the day. Stretching done appropriately is so important.
4) Appreciate the various machines available as well as the cleanliness of the Y.
5) My disappointment continues to be the lack of support for our pickleball program. The fact that we are a Y of seniors primarily it seems appropriate to have it more available during daylight hours. I see we will now have PB Fri evening, Sat starting at 1pm & Sunday. I am encouraged by this change & will once again try to get my PB friends back playing at the Y. I started playing at the Y in 2023 when we had a 3pm week time available & weekends & it built up quite a following but then the schedule changed due to the Sky Academy & the rest is history.
