Member Testimonials
Mike and his team is just awesome. My daughter, Myra Last name removed, has learned a lot since she started attending Swim team at Southwest.
It’s a well rounded family oriented fitness center with great instructors, plenty of classes to choose from and even some amenities not found at other/nearby Y’s. They seem to go above and beyond with programs for young and all alike. I absolutely love the e-gym circuit training too!
Would appreciate having more time allocated to lap swimming.
The classes that you offer for seniors are excellent and so are the teachers….How ever, one of the classrooms does not have air conditioning working and it was really hard at the end of summer to work out without air conditioning. I hope that it’ll be working next year. Sometimes the classroom is so extra crowded. I don’t think there’s too much you can do about that, it’s so crowded because it’s a great class
for Seniors!!!
I appreciate the variety of classes.
Really enjoyed having such a great team for Livestrong. Made me realize I could progress even during active treatment. I have found classes that are perfect for my level of fitness and enjoy that they Y is not super crowded and many of the members are super friendly!
Friendly
Great mixture of different classes, activities, and individual training/workouts available.

All of them
The variety of classes, the Egym and the indoor pool.
I love the body combat classes and variety of other group exercise classes. I also like the kids club program and instructors.
I use the gym mostly and find it clean and friendly. People at the desk are very friendly even call me by my name once in a while which is nice. I'm an older guy (60s) and things like clean and friendly are important to me.
The washer / dryer has broken a few times though so sometimes there are no towels for showering. Hopefully that gets all resolved as it has been 3 or 4 times in under a year.
i like Ellen Sande's yoga class.
I like the senior fitness classes; however, the scheduled time in the middle of the day could be improved.
the Y is my source of health physically and mentally.
The swimming and weight lifting programs I utilize have speeded my recovery from a crash where a car ran into me while riding my bicycle!
The current staff of the Southwest YMCA should be commended.
Previous management of the this facility removed the wall postings of nice little plaques with names of those who had solicited fairly large sums of money for this YMCA facility.
Other than this unfortunate occurance, I highly recommend this facility to others.
