Member Testimonials
Lots of variety in classes and days/times. Would love to have a U Jam class added. Used to have, and other Ys offer.
There are many choices.
Classes
Stretching room, treadmill, gym
Variety of classes at different times, plus individual use of machines and weights.
Only YMCA in the Southbay that has swimming lessons.
The diversity of classes, the people, the facilities and the value
Low stress, calming place to get exercise
Love all the programs I’ve attended so far during my first 2 weeks but I particularly like Zumba with Hector and Kelly, and body balance.
The instructors and front desk staff are really supportive and motivating.
I haven’t participated in any lecturers or seminars yet but will try.
That it is kid friendly
I toured the central YMCA in San Jose for the first time recently the staff were very kind and took me on the tour since I have recently relocated to the San Jose area I'm not sure for how long though I'd like to thank them for the tour and I hope I'm able to use the facility soon. Thank you Central YMCA.

I like the swimming pools.
Professionalism and length of class
I like the indoor swimming pool a lot.
Convenient location, reasonable price, good facilities
Good variety of classes, excellent instructors, activities for all ages and abilities.
Yoga classes and water aerobics classes!
There is no comparison to other facilities, because you think of the family. You offer many activities that incorporate all ages.
My kids have really been enjoying the swim lessons. I feel like they get more time in the pool and repetitions compared to other swim lesson sites. The only only downside is we had cancelled class one night and then an incident that sent everyone home with 1/2 the time remaining. Overall, would recommend.
I wish the lock is digital lock as in PALO ALTOs
Having a consistent instructor for the program has helped my daughter progress well! At other swim schools, it was never clear which instructor would be working with our daughter. Having someone she can trust has allowed her to take risks when learning to get comfortable in the water.
Everything
Clean, well maintained, family oriented, friendly staff.

I love the group exercise classes and adding more classes would be a bonus. Having more times frames available for classes would yield more community participation that would lead to a healthier community.
