Location, workout equipment and friendly staff.
A good selection of Les Mills classes, easy reservation process, as long as you are on time during snow bird season.
I do think the current cycle room, while functional, is a miss. Too narrow, long, congested and dank. Sorry, had to get that out there.
I like the variety of activities and the instructors for the classes are all excellent people. The repair work done after IAN has been great and the YMCA looks brand new. Good job to all the people that work for the YMCA in Englewood.
Opens @ 5:00 am, largest workout area we have ever seen, best equipment, clean, help very courteous.
Everyone is always nice.I will be glad when it all gets repaired. I wish you would bring back Silver Sneakers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I find the staff and patrons friendly and helpful. The classes, Les Mills, are just what the doctor ordered to help me have the best health possible.
I love the variety of classes, and the instructors are great! Lori P is absolutely AMAZING!!!
I do wish that fulltime residents got first dibs to register for the classes though

Great upbeat instructors
Friendly, helpful attitude of Y employees. Encouraging all levels of ability and challenging those who do we'll to improve even more. Fun clssses.
I like all the classes, especially the Parkinson oriented classes. I go to Spinning for Parkinson, Rock Steady boxing, and Parkinson exercise class. I also go to Cardio Drumming, Zumba Gold, Active older Balance class, Enhanced Fitness, and Core Strength class. I love Chair Yoga on Friday at Port Charlotte. Most days I leave for the Y about 9 and don't get home until almost 4. All the staff at the Y are awesome. I fight Parkinson's with as much exercise as I can do -- The Y is a godsend for me!

Although limited classes are available (due to Ian), the Englewood Y is really trying their best. Great instructors! Just which they would clean the green room floor more often.

the classes
zumba, pilates, and stretch classes. Such wonderful and caring instructors. A gift to the community from you to us. Thank you many times over.
The excellent instructors
Did a fitness challenge when I first joined. It really helped me realize how important an exercise routine is. I think that’s the reason I regularly use the Y even a year after.
Group Fitness Spinning, Pump, and Yoga
Swimming pool is great.
Always warm and clean.
Guards are doing a very good job.
Mainly because of access and for my lifestyle programs are more than adequate
