Member Testimonials

Friendly People and Staff are Great

Pound is a fantastic class and I've heard great things about some of the other ones that I want to start doing. The facility is always clean and the staff is super friendly.

Facilities are clean and in good repair.

There are so many classes, love that. Unfortunately in the last month in Punta Gorda you have changed times of classes by 15 minutes making it hard to find parking and for the instructors to set up for their next class. This was all changed and no notification was sent out so people were late for classes etc. also removal of classes in the evening and moving the time to 5:30 instead of 5:45 some of the people who came to the class can no longer make it because of traffic in the summer it is easier to make a 5;30 but now that the snowbirds are here the working people can’t make the class. This caused her to cancel one of the two boxing classes because we lost four or five regulars due to this change. Makes no sense and when we asked about it or left messages we don’t even get a call back. I love the ymca but some of these changes make no sense the evening classes should be tailored for working people.

classes and insturctors are great

The only program I use is your gym and fitness area. I really like the fact that you are part of the YMCA reciprocity program that really makes it possible for snowbirds such as I. The staff has been very welcoming and helpful with any question I may have. and, those with whom I have interacted have excellent senses of humor.

Group fitness classes especially spin classes & pickleball drop in 3mornings/week.

I use and like the Fitness Center.
I don’t take advantage of the programs and activities but appreciate the broad variety of such offerings and notice that the classes are always well-attended.

I like the classes

YMCA in Punta Gorda is a wonderful place to work out. Great classes, machines helpful employees to advise you.

I love playing pickleball, and there are so many different classes I can get into.

We use your great facility but not your classes. Too crowed for comfort upstairs in season which we realize is inevitable and accept that fact.
Karin is a great member of your staff and her actions offset other physical space or equipment shortcomings.
