I don't take classes but I really like the machines in the Wellness Center. The staff are friendly and that is important to me as well.
YMCA is more than a health club.
Excellent programs for the members and community.
Very safe environment for the members to do their activities.
Super excellent instructors working for a long time of period.
Special programs for non members also.
All ages can enjoy their programs with no extra cost for classes.
Rock climbing, karat classes, dance class for little ones.
Palo Alto YMCA is amazing for benefiting the community and teenagers.
Like that some Y classes are free for members; also like the availability of community programs, such as Stanford's Balance class and Be Strong, Be Well.
I think the YMCA has a great facility and programs. I do swim aerobics. I don't like all the teachers so I try to pick the days of the teachers I like. I would use the equipment but I need someone to set me up on the machines. I have asked several times but never seem to get an appointment.
I like the diversity of the programs, the offering all day long including week-ends, the spirit of the people at the Palo Alto YMCA.
The facility is roomy and beautiful, the staff are highly personable, and the equipment is great.

My family just became a member of YMCA and three of us enjoy a lot. I love to exercise with my 9 year old son and some times with my husband.
It is family oriented so make things more easy if you need to exercise.
If my son decide to have a break he loves to go to Kids Club. The instructor are great. The customer service it is great as well overall the best decision we ever made
