Member Testimonials
Varied agenda, open to all, friendly atmosphere
I discovered the YMCA through the Living Strong Living Well program as a cancer survivor 7 years ago. After 12 weeks of working on the weight machines with coaches I noticed a big difference in overall wellness, balance and strength so continued to use the machines, do some cardio and try different classes. Then I discovered the wonderful pool! The therapeutic temperature is so great for exercise classes and stretching. I also lap swim when I can.
I have tried and liked pilates, spinning, yoga and zumba classes. The class I stick with week after week is the water yoga class with Mary K.
This is longest I have sustained a gym membership and continued to use it regularly without feeling it is a burden or waste of money. In fact I look forward to coming 2x/week. Staff is friendly and welcoming.
My only complaints are two:
1) cell phone use, children and people hogging strength training machines in the cardio room 2) Not enough pool time for lap swimming
Everyone at the Y in RWC are very friendly and helpful. I attend the spin classes on a regular bases and enjoy the instructors very much. I would like to see newer weigh lifting equipment and more classes offered. Many thanks for your hard Last name removed staff!!

I'm not involved in any of the programs or activities. I just use the equipment and swimming pool. But I like the Y because it's a low-key environment, the membership price is reasonable, and the staff is friendly.
I am working with Inez Rosa once a week. She is doing a wonderful job of helping me with my flexibility, balance, and strength. She has great knowledge, and I have a lot of confidence in her ability.
