Member Testimonials
The price is right, and the installations are very good. Very friendly and professional staff
The instructor, Jack, for early Tuesday morning is great. We have made friends. We get a good workout.
I like Zumba and U-Jam, those are only 2 classes I tried so far. They are great!
Good senior programs and activities
I like the Senior Fitness class with Larry. He is loved by all!
I don’t like that there are few classes for seniors. Zumba Gold is on Sundays, not a good day at all.
The gymn for pickleball, physical training and treadmill.
I only use the strength machines.
Many options for all, including skill levels
Couch Sophia is very nice and patient, we love her. Would be nice if makeup classes are offered when there’s empty pace from other classes.
There is a wide variety of activities to choose from and they are available at different times throughout the day. I can choose an activity that matches my energy and level of challenge I’m looking for that day. Both staff and patrons are friendly and inclusive. It feels good to be in a place where I see people in all life stages exercising and persevering in spite of challenges and setbacks
fun, wholesome activities with good selection of choices
Diverse and friendly atmosphere and offerings
I primarily use the warm swimming pool, not in a class but doing my independent exercise activities. I really like that there is this “free swim” time in the morning. It gets my day started in the best way.
Occasional I use a treadmill but that is not my primary activity. Many thanks.
Wide variety of activities and classes. The youth basketball league is also a big plus.
I use the pool nice and clean although the showers could have a little more power come out or
I like the indoor pool — esp during the colder winter months! -- and the comprehensive services offered.
Teacher Carol is wonderful!
With Y since last century!

Swim, Weight gym and basketball
Love the aquatics program! My two kids have been taking swim lessons at the Palo Alto YMCA for several years. The teachers are great (specifically Ms. Carol and Heather). The rest of the aquatics staff are friendly and knowledgeable.

The teachers are very good and teach their students every skill with great care. It has been 7 months that my son is learning swimming at YMCA Palo Alto and he has learnt a lot in all his classes. Thank you.
