Wondering why the larger group exercise room rarely has more than three or four people yet the 8am weekday classes are overcrowded in the smaller room.
Zumba
Personable.
The Baxter YMCA has the best and cleanest exercise equipment in the area; much better than the Anytime Fitness' franchises and much better than LA Fitness. I have mentioned this to many of my exercise friends who are members of the other aforementioned fitness facilities.
The men's locker room is also very clean and expansive.
I look forward to routinely using the Baxter. My only drawback is that the YMCA is much further from my home in Bargersville compared to the other two facilities and sometimes my limited time dictates me not using the YMCA.
Thank you for your work in making the Baxter YMCA a great operation.
I like the different group classes and the out door pools
The instructors are great.
Staff is EXTREMELY kind and welcoming. I love the outdoor pool.
Staff is very friendly and helpful. Instructors are amazing. We enjoy all the amenities as a family and individually.
Instructors are great!
Baxter Y is a great place to be for many reasons. Clean - friendly employees - good programs etc. TY!
Baxter Y is great. I have been going there for a couple of years now. It is always clean and the areas I want to use never too crowed to use. People are polite and friendly. It is a pleasant experience. My grandchildren always have a great time too when we go swimming and use the indoor playground.
Love our workouts with my daughter, love the cleanliness-especially the bathrooms and the halls. The very nice people that work there. This is really a good thing! Love the pools too!
This year we have really enjoyed the outdoor pool. The guards have done an excellent job keeping everyone safe. The new windows for the indoor pool look beautiful! We look forward to the new brightness of the indoor pool area.
I do wish that yoga classes would not be an extra membership charge. The cost is prohibitive to participate.
I like the Les mills group fitness classes that are included in the membership. Linda B , Kristie, and Esther are great instructors.
The wide variety of classes with extremely competent instructors.
Great service desk people who go the extra mile to help.
Building with great equipment & shower facilities
I like the variety and having different availability of times
My experience with Carolyn Namavich classes and Lisa's Zumba classes have been totally positive. Fun, worthwhile muscle and balance wise, and also a good social experience.
I do pool only
Welcoming staff, clean facilities and plenty of options.
I like the variety of programs and the times of the activities offered at the Y.
I appreciate the lunch and learn series. The topics are usually very interesting and I learned something almost every time.
I love the Baxter YMCA . I have benefitted from the programming ; I have gone to yoga class pre Covid . Since then I attend several Water aerobics classes every week . I also take advantage of the e-gym . I have made some wonderful friendships while attending g . I give my experience at Baxter YMCA very much credit for the excellent health I’m experiencing at 75 years young! Thank you so much! I intend to be a member of the Y for a very long time!
People are friendly
I really like the Silver Sneakers program and use it regularly
All of the instructors have been supportive and interested in how the class likes the class.
Very diverse programs and very accessible
I only go to the Y for lap swimming in the outdoor pool. In past experience the indoor pool is not good for lap swimmers because water aerobics and other uses take over. The life guards simply do not enforce respect for lap swimmers.
Is there a better indoor pool--possibly larger--in the Indy area?

Pool is nice, locker room clean, gym is clean and has towels and not paper towels, no mold growing on ceiling like other places, safe area, friendly staff
I love the classes offered for seniors.
I attend Zumba Gold with Lisa on Tuesday & Thursday. She does a wonderful job and has given me inspiration on improving my health and weight gold journey. Thank you!
Love the outdoor pool.

The swimming lessons are great. Our daughter does need a bit more focus on her details--she bobs a lot rather than continuing stroke. We do talk to the instructors and they help.
We appreciate the ongoing upkeep of facilities.
