I am a new member. I 80 years old and decided that I needed to move to keep moving.\
I don't like Yoga and some other exercise classes are too much for me. However, a friend took me to Pilates and I enjoy it very much, An hour is too long for me now, I can only stay at it for about 40 minutes. But with time, I will be able to work out for the hour.
Group ex classes.
Basketball, esp the travel league
I really appreciate the lifeguards. They are welcoming and helped me find a pair of goggles to borrow since I had left mine at home.
Sean was a great personal trainer at the YMCA Central location in San Jose. He was patient and very knowledgeable. Thanks and I'll be back soon!

They make sense, its easy to follow, it works, you get results.
Parking. Reception. Gym equipment. Space. It's a house that was converted to a community gym. Do better, YMCA of Silicon Valley. You need to split up your resources to succeed. Pay your staff more money. You are stealling from staff.
