Trainers, classes, equipment, rhyme
Excellent atmosphere for people to attend and the staff are very welcoming.
availability space for classes.and the teachers are great unlike some in Palo Alto
Love the sauna (needs to be cleaned up a little however); I can always get a workout machine. I liked eGym as well as it helps me with my physical therapy. The weight lifting machines can be busy at times which can be tricky, but overall really like the gym. My son plays basketball. The pingpong tables are great, but it can be hard to get a chance to play -- ppl don't always share or aren't mindful about others waiting to play. Overall, having the membership is helping me with my health and wellness goals.
EGym thta has a wristband and rembers the settings ot each weight machine is ideal for me
Clean!
I appreciate the attitude of the teachers in the classes and the kindness of some of the staff members. In general the sense of community and connections to the staff and the members. I also appreciate the investments in the newer equipment. I do hope that there will be new social programs that could connect members with each other.
Very nice
Love the instructors
I really enjoy the trainer package (I work with Briana) and the yoga classes—Michal is excellent. I also truly appreciate the front desk staff; they consistently greet members and wish me a good day or good night when I leave, which makes me feel especially welcome. I really value that.
If I may offer a suggestion: I’ve noticed that some people sit on machines on the gym floor for extended periods while using their phones. Would it be possible to add additional signage or have on-duty staff provide friendly reminders to help keep equipment available for everyone?
Additionally, the quiet stretch area could benefit from clearer signage regarding noise expectations. Some members play music on speakers, which suggests the “quiet” guideline may not be well understood. A sign indicating that playing music is not allowed would be helpful.
Thank you for all the hard work and dedication that keep El Camino YMCA an excellent facility.
