Member Testimonials
The exercise classes are helping me and I enjoy seeing the people.
The swim staff is incredible
All ages, multiple
Swim team is very dedicated to teaching my kids how to swim well! I love the attention they receive and direction given.
Everyone there is very friendly. There is plenty of equipment so there’s never a wait. Always a great experience. It would be nice to have a hot tub/whirlpool, so that’s my only suggestion.
Clean locker rooms and clean equipment. Great staff.
My first experience was this past Saturday. I was very impressed with the gym and its modern workout equipment. Staff is helpful and friendly.
we like the variety of gym equipment and the friendliness of the workers.
Your gym is excellent. I appreciate the wide variety of machines and free weights available. In particular, the fact that your dumbbells go up to 100 rather than 75 like a lot of gyms I've seen is greatly appreciated.
I just occasionally work out at the Jordan Y when I'm on the northeast side. (I typically go to the Avondale Y.) Many thanks to the membership woman at the Jordan Y who last week helped reinstate my membership.
Great location, silver sneakers classes are at my skill level, Jordan locatio has at least one Silver Sneakers class each weekday.
My daughter is learning to play basketball and everything has been great. Coaches, parents, kids. Couldn't be happier.
Mary Ann’s classes and friendly participants!!!
Sauna too!!!
I primarily come to use equipment such as the recumbent elliptical. There is always one available so I never need to wait especially when my workout time is limited. I appreciate this.
I love the Jordan YMCA. Walking through the door you see good people at the front desk. I look forward to seeing Jayne during the week and Chauncy on Saturdays. Jayne is on duty when sometimes it is crazy busy. She is so impressive! She solves problems, points people in the right direction, answers the phone, folds towels, collects and organizes lost and found, as she greets guests all with natural and personable flair. It is clear she takes pride in her work.
The pool is what brought me to the facility. Your free swim and the aqua classes have changed my life exponentially. I live by the Monon Center, which is a beautiful facility, but I have physical limitations, and they cater to the lap swimmer and have no extended steps into the pool. Part of the time the mechanism that lowers you into the water has a dead battery. At the Jordan YMCA you have three options to get in and out of the pool. I use the steps, and love exercising in the shallow end or water jogging in the deep end which has reduced the chronic pain in my body by at 80 percent over the years.
The aqua classes are wonderful. There are no expectations that we can do the moves equally. We are accepted as we are. Ali is remarkable and Lynn is too. So different in their styles, so similar in their complete dedication to teaching.
And the people! Jess is serious about us and I appreciate what she has brought to center, including many activities I cannot participate in, but enjoy watching from time to time. And your lifeguards are outstanding. I am allergic to the sun, so don’t visit in the summer (sadly) but imagine the joy I felt when I saw three familiar faces life guarding when I returned to the indoor pool last week. I was joyous. Coming to the Y is like coming home.
There is always options, if you missed a class then you have more options.
Trainers teach with care and patience.
I love the instructors for swim lessons. They are hands on and very encouraging.

The helpful staff
We’ve had such a wonderful experience with the aquatics staff at the Arthur Jordan YMCA! My daughter started back taking swim lessons this past summer and it’s been amazing to watch her confidence and excitement for swimming grow. She’s really excelled in her skills, especially with the help of Brandy, who has been such a patient, encouraging and effective instructor. Everyone on the aquatics team is always so kind, helpful and welcoming. We’re so thankful for this program and the positive impact it’s had on our daughter!
Swim lessons for children are great.
Brandy is amazing!! She’s a great instructor and her team is excellent too. Our daughter has excelled and I plan to keep her in the program indefinitely!
They're open to everyone, and it's probably the most friendly YMCA in the Midwest.
Clean facility! Friendly staff
