Love the community atmosphere at the YMCA
Pool hours are great. Thank you.
LOVED finding the Barre class with Jenny again! I took it a few years ago and loved it, then found that Central Y has it. Great facility - beautiful pool!
Yeah everything is fine!
Love the group classes, especially Jenny and Juan.
I recently moved here from Illinois and immediately loved the staff at the Central YMCA!
I hope I can remember everyone’s name that has been so kind to me! Jill registered me and did an outstanding job welcoming me! Erica then completed my fitness orientation with my nephew who is 10 and my niece who is 12. Erica did an amazing job helping us!! Most recently Chase at the front desk is extremely friendly, and welcoming! I have complimented him on his beautiful smile!! I just started taking the Body Balance class and absolutely love it! Michael is excellent as well as Juan who took his place for a few sessions!!!
Thank you for all that you are doing at the Y to make it a great place to come too!!!!!
Warmly,

I especially enjoy the group exercise classes. My personal favorites are Land Fitness with Erica, Aqua Fitness with Beth (I enjoy the 6:15 Aqua classes with Sarah but don't often get going that early...maybe in summer when it is warmer & light at that hour!) and also enjoy Gentle Yoga with Amy.
I am getting great benefit from personal training sessions with Susan -her encouragement, instructions and personalized programs are a big inspiration and as a senior person I feel safe in understanding using the equipment and exercises to feel better and improve my fitness.
Jill at the front desk continues to make me feel welcome. She is a gem!
I feel very fortunate to have moved to the Rose Garden Neighborhood and have easy access to the YMCA (I usually walk) and appreciate that the YMCA continuously focuses community building.
Very good experience
Lots of choices, although I would like to see another class or two of water fitness in the outdoor pool as the weather gets nicer.
Really like the staff and the commitment to community!
I have just made it to the one class so far, but the instructor was great, I knew people in the class and the work out great!
Very friendly environment and nice staff.

We love them.
Great selection of classes, great teachers
I do not participate in any programs or activities. I like the Y because it is family and health focused. It's members are there for their health and nothing else. There's no posturing, no ego's, no bro and sister movement. Just mind your business and get to work at your own pace.
The staff and facility emulate positivity, kindness, helpfulness and a be strong and healthy attitude.
We just became members at this location. So far so good. My daughter is enjoying the kids area while I work out.
No judgment
Variety of classes
Everything
Swimming pool outdoor, gym, and all services
The staff is welcoming. Love the variety of courses. The locker rooms are clean. Would like to see one more aqua fitness class on Wednesday since that class is so crowded. How about one on Mondays?
All the classes
Pool and workout instructors are a big hit.
Afternoon water fitness and water Zumba classes are available. And water fitness every weekday morning.
The Central YMCA has the best indoor swimming pool around the Bay with 9 feet depth and a nice new outdoor pool for kids.
I wish the inside pool has a regular schedule, open everyday from Monday to Friday.
I have been with this YMCA thru 3 generations, me, my daughter and my 2 grandchildren, I love the place.
Thank you
So many options and choices!

I like there very much,because there is very well equipped and comfortable and very clean.
