Member Testimonials
Professionally trained people who teach the active older adult programs. Helps exercise through our aging injuries at our individual abilities.
Thirsty Thursday and monthly potlucks to socialize.
I really enjoy the exercise classes a lot - especially body pump, bodywork, Zumba, HIIT & Zumba. A good mix to select from. I appreciate the enthusiasm of the staff.
Large variety of equipment & classrs
I'm a swimmer and I enjoy using your pool.
Franz Ross Ymca has a cool vibe that can’t be found anywhere else. It’s like cheers where everybody knows your name from the desk to the trainers to the other members. Collectively, it’s a joy to work out from five in the morning till 9 PM. Everybody has a purpose and people are very directed towards their fitness goals it’s a bonus that they provide coffee and tea and sometimes there’s other treats at the coffee bar. We can always find out what’s going on in the community from other members or death staff, and if we need help with anything, they’re just a moment away the pool is lovely and it has a hot tub and steam room attached to the aquatic area. The locker rooms are adequate, and the exercise rooms are almost always full with classes and members enjoying the out of the day. Everyone should have a place like this to be. It’s very magical to be a part of the Franz Ross Ymca. There are members from infant age to 97 that work out, which is a testament to the staff.
I do love the AOA & other classes, the ease of checking in & the cleanliness of the locker rooms.
I don't attend classes as often as in the past because my favorites are so crowded!
Elaine's classes Monday, Wednesday and Friday are so crowded they feel dangerous. We run the risk of being hit in the head by other members arms!
It just feels uncomfortable & unpleasant to work out in that small room.The Tuesday and Thursday classes are usually okay.
Why can't those big classes be moved to the larger room? You might have former attendees returning!
I haven’t used them yet. U
Nice Variety & great teachers ! The employees are very knowledgeable & kind !

Yoga
Since I only use the pool I'm still not happy with it. The water is beautiful but it's ice cold always something isn't working, schedules keep changing and we are getting less & less time for our class? We have a great instructor we all love her. Our YMCA is the best & it's employs are great. PLEASE fix our pool. We got nothing new where the others did well. We even lost a lot of girls. HELP Sandy Dube. Have a nice day.
Everything
I like the variety of the group fitness classes. The instructors are always energetic, enthusiastic and upbeat.
However, I do wish the gym were in better condition. Broken mirrors, ratty weights, and beat-up "steps" do not reflect well and frankly, are embarrassing to bring guests to--particularly one who regularly goes to the Venice facility!
Varied activities and programs, ease in scheduling and pleasant knowledgeable staff. I Dont have children but providing daycare for exercising parents and programs for kids is a definite plus and all parties win!
Weights, yoga, pilates
Very friendly environment. Professional. Several options for several different age groups. An excellent way to keep fit.

I like programs geared toward older people. Chair yoga and water exercise classes are my favorites.
I love the structured classes and instructors! The variety is perfect. Also, not to mention the kids club! I need to use it more often but having the option makes a huge difference.
Awesome, amazing.
The teachers -instructor are well informed knowledgeable and helpful
Programs & classes schedules however, gym equipment needs some TLC!
Location and group fitness
We have great instructures and good classes. Don't like the 24hr sign up. Much prefer 36hr sign up..
My husband and I use the gym for a good workout 3 times a week. We plan to explore the classes Y has.
The new Treadmills and I plan to start taking Yoga classes. My son when home from College enjoys swimming laps, but the Pool has been closed a lot this summer.
I love the change & new app to reserve classes. I believe it gives everyone an equal chance of reserving a class of their interest. The rearranging of some of equipment is no bad, different & good.
GOOD JOB! WAY TO GO.
