Member Testimonials
Equipment is in good shape and...GLITZ DANCE!
I love the friendly atmosphere, the support, response from staff and the availability of both outdoor and indoor equipment. I also have enjoyed the classes and would like to be able to attend more. The instructors are top notch. In many ways I see the 'Y" as an under-appreciated resource.
There are multiple activities that you this from all throughout the day.
Love the coffee station.
I love the people who work there and who I have met in classes. I love the variety of additional classes like cooking, painting etc, I love the artful signs, the community feeling with puzzles etc when you first walk in. I love that there are people who work (or
maybe volunteer)
for the y the room where the machines are that will show you how to use them properly. My experience at this Y has been wonderful!

Good variety. Timing of classes usually meets my schedule.
Great facility, looks and feels very clean. Well maintained. Excellent fitness instructors and friendly staff!
I used to go to Northwest in my neighborhood. However, I now go mainly to the Southwest one instead. I specially like everything about this YMCA. The people at the reception, the instructors, the classes, and the pool are all excellent. The facility is clean and very well taken care of. I especially like how everything is set up to make you feel at home, from the cabins in the locker rooms to have privacy and the showers right before entering the pool.
I’ve enjoyed several great classes, such as yoga with a foam roller, where Heather was very welcoming, Emily’s Zumba Gold class, and Ying’s therapeutic yoga, which was also excellent.
One suggestion I have is to please offer some of these classes in the afternoon around 4:30 as well. This week is my break from school, so I can attend the morning classes, but once school resumes, I’ll really miss them if there aren’t later options available.
Thank you for all you do!
Weight room and cardio room
Love the new weight room. The three deadlift platforms/squat racks are great, and the weightlifting area feels spacious and less cramped. Southwest YMCA has the best cardio room out of all YMCAs I've been to. Keep it up. S/O Thavi (SP?). Cool dude!
There’s great variety. And I love my aqua fitness class
There is something for everyone, a large variety of options.
The exercise classes cater to different age and fitness levels. The non exercise activities appear to create community, such as the hiking club. The staff is friendly and helpful.
Classes are great love the body combat and boot camps and friendly staff all around!!
That the pool is open for walking and therapy all morning
I really like the programs that are designed for senior citizens such as body balance, yoga, Zumba Gold and stretch classes.
It also meets the social needs of people.
Love the Les Mills classes and appreciate the efforts to incorporate a variety of activities such as cooking and watercolor
The variety. It’s not just exercise, it’s crafts, book clubs, a group that bought tickets to a theater together. You don’t meet people when you’re exercising because you don’t want to interrupt the instructor. I’ve made some new friends through the other activities. I live alone, so that’s great to get to know new people.
Lots of them
Different time options
all teachers/classes are welcoming and accommodating! When i complained about ppl not following lane rules, the director of the swim program steppedin even though the staff was lax and unclear.
It’s engaging and fun, but the kids also learn and progress. I love it!
I really like the Water Fitness instructors. Good workout, and nice people.
