I can't say anything about the program yet I haven't had a chance to attend I've been really busy. But I will say that the location looked clean and safe
Small groups and structure; Friendliness of the coaches
I joined because of the kids club. The parents night out is amazing. The YMCA is more expensive than some gyms like crunch but because of the child care it's well worth it.
I also like that I can go to any location to take advantage of everything.
my family loves the water now and his instructors.
Clean rooms, lots of choices, polite staff
I enjoy that Enzo is growing more comfortable in the water, I did appreciate the review that was done at the halfway point.
Friends
The staff and instructors for classes are great. if you need help they are there to help you.
The edges of the indoor pool need to be cleaned. The floor mat by the men's shower need to be replaced, there are worn spot and holes forming.
In general, I really enjoy the water fitness classes and Aqua Zoomba.
The swimming pool and hot tub
The swim lessons my son is taking have exceeded all expectations. I tried 4 other programs in the area and he had terrible experiences at all of them. He was anxious of the water and hated water on his face, no one would listen or accommodate this until we came to the Y. His first lesson was so positive and we left with him not wanting to leave (a first!). Now he’s going underwater, swimming a little bit independently! It’s been incredibly positive. The whole program is amazing. Thank you!
The central YMCA is very good. The staff members are very friendly and helpful.
The staff is great with the kids and informs parents of their progress half way through the program so you understand what your child needs to improve on. Also, the classes aren’t overly packed so the children get more practice in.
Lots of variety- tai chi, karate, body combat…
The variety with something to fit everyone.
Great trainers in the gym, flexible and friendly atmosphere
I truly enjoy the environment at Central YMCA. The instructors are knowledgeable, professional, and consistently start and end classes on time. The atmosphere is welcoming and respectful, and everyone is treated with kindness regardless of their cultural background. It’s a place where people genuinely support and respect one another, which makes it a pleasure to be a part of.
La ayuda que nos dan para nuestros hijos si lo necesitamos mucho el programa porque cuando Mamá y Papá trabaja los niños no tenemos adonde dejarlos para nosotras una gran ayuda y muchísimas gracias que sigue con este programa. Estamos muy agradecidos con ustedes
My family loves the Y. There is a good variety of programs and you can tell that they work hard to maintain the facility. I know how old that facility is, so it must take a great deal of money and effort on the part of the organization. I wish there was more local government funding for the YMCA's in the South Bay. They are a fantastic resource for our community!
Close to my home. Friendly instructors. Varied exercise programs and individual workout opportunities.
Always love my visits to the old San Jose Hart family property.
Thanks

I enjoy that Y’s water aerobics program since it is best and safest exercise program for me.&
I like all the classes
The variety of classes and the teachers are very friendly, especially Ms Noriko Rand Kelly S , and Carolina C . All the teachers are great.
I enjoy all the different ways you can exercise at the gym, I like shooting hoops, swimming, hot tub, sauna, lots of lockers to use anytime I need, restrooms are always available and clean, multiple areas I can use exercise machines which is very useful.
Groups and swimming

The YMCA app and access to Group Exercise programs is very useful and attractive to me. The Central YMCA staff is very helpful and friendly to members. I would like to see a coffee maker at the Central YMCA, like they have in Cupertino.
