Silver Sneakers by Dave
Friendly, helpful, and welcoming staff.
While I’m very happy with what I use which is water aerobics and the e-gym, it’s sad that pre-school was cancelled. And also the Eastside YMCA closing. So sad. I hope my Baxter YMCA remains open.

Friendly staff .Excellent client cleaning.
I am a senior citizen…. And not an athletic person.
I like that I can come to the Y …ride a stationary bike to warm up. Do the Egym, lift a few weights and feel like I’ve accomplished something…. Even if I hate to exercise
The people, the exercises, It makes me feel better about myself and I the instructor’s are great.
Personal Training. Wellness area/treadmill. Staff nice.
They are great!
I attend several classes for active older adults. Not only do they provide good workouts, but also social interaction, which is so important.
Several people have told me that the classes and friendships they've made there have "saved" them. They had been lonely, with little or no social outlet, and the classes have made all the difference.
SGT is great! Mark and Tina do an amazing job in SGT. Enjoy the water fitness classes. Shirley, Jana, Trina, and Denise rock it out in the water! Front desk staff are friendly and helpful. Makes coming into the Y fun to work out!
hours of operation, friendliness of staff, equpment I use typically is in good working order and not broken. separately we enjoy the programming/education available.
Haven't had a chance to do any of these yet since we just joined but we will be using some of these soon
The youth basketball program is very organized! Even at age 5 I felt like my son started learning the fundamentals of the game while still keeping them engaged and having fun!
The classes are great!
variety of classes
availablity of multiple programs for all ages.
We have joined numerous activities and youth sports at the Baxter YMCA. We love how invested the coahces and staff are. Jake Patton does a great job every session to ensure everyone knows the outline of each program at the beginning of the session and what to expect. The communication and emails are just the right amount of reminders to help everyone be success! We love many of the coaches but Coach Dom stands out and should be recognized for how much he does with enthusasium and a positive attitude. Our kids love the YMCA and the fun family oriented sports. Thank you again.
The weight room is clean and most of the equipment is updated. The locker room and common spaces are clean. The staff are all friendly and helpful. I have not participated in many programs or activities yet.

That they are inclusive for my children. I use the wellness center the most and have been trying to instill a healthy mindset in my children. Having them see me be active and being active themselves is greatly reinforcing my lead.
Fun and inclusive
So many times for water workouts. Everyone very nice and helpful.
Can't really do too many activities due to severe neuropathy but I really appreciate the ability to have open swim so I can do range of motion.
Pickleball when I am in Indy
I like the E-Gym machines. I like swimming laps.

I am a devotee of the personal training program. Before I started I never would call myself a gym rat or ever want to be in one - now I'm training for a 10k and getting stronger every day. My trainer, Jenny, is the best and only this program could make it possible.
