Great staff! Aquatics program and teachers are very professional and create interest and enthusiasm. LOVE Terilyn, Diana, and Meg!
About the only thing I have ever done at the Y is use the pool. I love it and enjoy the various exercise classes held there.
Good variety. Good instructors. Geared to different levels of fitness.
I like the swimming pool and the staff are very friendly.
The atmosphere and sense of community.
The shallow water aerobic classes. I haven't tried any of the other classes offered yet
Thank you.
I enjoy being greeted at the door when I come in and being told “bye” when I leave. This helps me feel included in the community.
Swimming.
I mostly use the pool for water exercise, both individual and class. I enjoy the friendly atmosphere!
You really need to pay more attention to your water exercise classes. Not all of them are being taught effectively. While there is certainly more than one way to teach effectively, you should check to see if these guidelines are being followed: Participants should be able to tell clearly what exercise to do. This is best achieved by having the instructor on deck demonstrating the exercise, and giving clear audible instructions. The classes should be choreographed to music of the instructor’s choosing, possibly with input from participants. The instructor should be friendly and encouraging, yet professional, and remind participants to exercise safely at their own pace. Classes should begin and end on schedule. On any given day, there should be a choice of instructors and class levels. Some of the classes are too slow for longtime experienced participants. Adding a more energetic class such a water Zumba during the week would probably fix this.
The Y might well consider paying your instructors better and paying for training and certifications.
They are great, diverse and pleasant!
Love the low key friendly atmosphere. Clean facilities. Reasonable price.
I like the variety of aquatic exercise programs and the ability to visit multiple sites
Gym and pool
Scheduling of class times. Friendly instructors.
There's a wide variety of classes to choose from as well as times to take them. There are so many different types of machines and equipment to choose from. The atmosphere is very welcoming and everyone I've met there from staff, to instructors, to other participants, are so friendly. I'm so glad I joined!
Warm pool, fun people and friendly staff. I've become friends with 5 people and we get together for lunch and other activities outside of the Y.
I like the Gym and the fact that you offer childcare because i would not beable to work out unless i had help with childcare so your facility makes that possible for me and i also love the summer camp programs . 2 of my kids were in the summer camp all summer last summer and they loved it. We will be sure to do it again next year .
Thank you

The quality of instructor is very high. Friday morning spin, Roberts, excellent. The class members are becoming family. The equipment still needs work. Bikes have problems and the audio (music) system has been difficult to use. Glad we can open the windows to cool off the room.
All of them!

Close to home, affordable, not to crowded
Love yoga with Patricia on Mon. mornings and pilates on Tues. and Thurs. mornings, and the weight machines for muscle strengthening.
Inez was awesome in assessing my gym needs and my physical limitations. Looking forward to working with her next week 😃
I love the warm indoor pool for my arthritis. I wish there were more hours for recreational/ exercise for adults.
