Name removed
Gym clean
Friendly Lisa at front desk
Bathrooms clean
The parent child swim class is excellent!
Ample choices and excellent ways to stay in shape in a pleasant, clean and safe environment with like-minded people and, if desired, under helpful guidance. Additionally the staff is friendly and welcoming. ALL that at a fair price! What's not to like?
Lap pool
community-driven/led -- unique Y (have been to multiple other Ys and this one is unique). Staff is generally excellent, members contribute to programs. Glad to see the MV director with her ganddaughter in the pool, etc. Staff members who have been there decades.
The equipment is excellent.
I do wish towels would be available again, but I do understand why they aren't now.
Senior program, pool exercise and the exercise machines
Nice warm swimming pool
Varios classes for different needs and times, friendly atmosphere.
Enjoy the pool activities including volleyball! Tina was very helpful showing me how to use the machines.
The staff is very friendly, and the assortment of BodyPump, Pilates and Yoga classes is awesome!
Wonderful group programs. .. welcoming everyone.
I like the warm indoor swimming pool for water walking. I wish you’d hurry up and build the new facilities in Redwood City so the old 1950s cinderblock cramped gym could be replaced. I’m sure you’ll get a lot more members once the new facilities are built.
Variety of group exercise offerings is good
Very nice !
Love the Senior Fitness program.
We love Sequoia YMCA! All the staff is super friendly and warm. I love that swim classes can overlap for both kids while parents get a work out in as well! I just wish the facilities were not so dated. They do a good job of keep the facilities clean as well.
I just love our exercise class MWF 10:15. Such a great group of folks, and the instructors are fab! I also use the treadmill when it's raining.
I use the weight and exercise machines
I like that they gave me a trial period
Water aerobics classes are both healthy and social
I like the HOIST machines. I use them one a regular basis. I am handicapped and wish I had more ability to safely use the freeweights these days, but the HOIST machines are just right for me.
Good job
I like the community focus at Sequoia - opportunities for youth, and elderly. I like the friendly and helpful front desk staff. Also the pool, and the different exercise rooms so that clients are not working out too close together.
Great instructors!
There are a variety of fun activities and programs that everyone can enjoy
I have been going to senior fitness since it started. It is perfect for me. Both teachers and participants are respectful , fun, sincere, helpful . I haven’t been doing many of the machines as I used to. But I do need to have my fees reassessed as I am currently paying above my ability.

Good people and good classes. The Y is both my community and my way to stay well physically and emotionally. I wouldn't be a healthy senior without you guys.
