Member Testimonials
It's a community type of environment where all ages are welcome. The team is great It's also conveniently located near my residence.
The variety!
Inclusiveness from staff, instructors and students.
I like the swim and recreation times, however as a slower and older swimmer I find the slow/medium lane populated often by clumsy swimmers who don’t stay on their side. I have been whacked in the head and arm. The bigger area sometimes has children rough housing in it, and it feels unsafe for casual swimming. I would like there to be a ‘slow’ swim lane, NOT combined with medium speed. Fast swimmers tend to get in to the slow/medium lane if the fast lane is crowded.
Cycling classes, uncrowded weight room
Southwest Y provided a very friendly environment. Some workout machines need to be updated (stairmaster, stationary bike, and cross trainers), otherwise we will give a 10.

I like all the programs you offer. I am a senior and like the Enhanced Fitness program. Enjoy talking to the other ladies and with the instructors. I feel like I had a good workout at the end of the session. I just found out about your Living Strong Living Well program. George was very kind as he explained to me how the program works. I think you are all doing a good job.
