Member Testimonials
Sacc picklebll, exercise equipment, friendly staff
The activity pool was open. It needs to be open more than it is.
Had an excellent experience with the painting class with Rachel and look forward to more. I usually use the facilities at the Fayetteville YMCA so I am not as familiar with Manlius.
I love the group fitness classes- especially BodyPump! I enjoy the Run Group.
Smaller, good gym floor for pickleball, good exercise room, friendly staff
The atmosphere is soooo inviting. The customer service is impeccable. Very clean!
I love the community feeling and especially the Art Department, where I've taken several art classes. Jennifer Sweet, the director, has been so helpful, patient and supportive. Susie Yong has taught me so much about ceramics and she works so hard.
The gym is clean and organized and it's easy to access a machine or group class when I need to.
I'll be back! Thank you!
Tom, one of the staff, is the absolute best and kindest person.
It would be great to have more cardio group exercises. Fore instance, two Zumba classes a week are not enough - the timing does not work for those of us who get off work at 5:30 pm. Thank you for your consideration.

Variety of classes and wonderful instructors. I love boxing and the EGYM is a great addition along with more virtual in person classes
Friendliness and professionalism of staff
Love the e gym
Pickleball, weights
It is always up to you! Do you long for a trimmer waist line, a better mood, better health,
or just to stay and be active and to lead a happy life style. Maybe just maybe you might
want to consider the Y... If you have tried other avenues and are not yet happy with your
results then just maybe the Y could help. It is up to you!
Good luck.... and peace be with you.
We love it no place like it
It's very simple. All employees are so very friendly.
I like the staff and the people I have met.
Convenient,clean track and pools
Child time is amazing!!!
Wide Variety of equipment in the facility. Pleasant staff, kept clean.
Olivia does a phenomenal job with the Aqua program. John is a very dedicated professional in teaching adult swim lessons, I have made progress with having the swim lessons. Dawn is an amazing instructor with her classes in addition to Sandyjo, Denise and Jennifer. Body Combat is an amazing class. Karen does a superb job with her classes upstairs. I am always greeted when I enter and spoken to when I leave the way by the front desk staff. The Egym is an excellent addition to the Y. I feel very blessed to have a great place to be able to become the best person I can be. My orthopedic surgeon suggested that I continue with what I have been doing, modifying if I need to which I do. As a senior member the coffee in the lobby is nice for socializing. The Active Older Adult Walking Club is nicely organized and great for an experience of being outside with other members. The Senior Fair was very informative as well as the classes offered upstairs in addition to Walk with the Doc. I also participate in the Writing Center and had a piece published in “28 Voices” the first publication of Writing Center participants work. Auroa is a amazing lifeguard and goes above and beyond. All the lifeguards are great!
I have enjoyed trying the yoga class on Thursday evening. And Stephanie is the best lifeguard ever; so reliable and professional!
Love the pickle, yoga and interval training.
the Y is very friendly. I love the classes there. I take chair yoga twice a week and a fitness class once per week. I plan on adding a swimming class now that it is somewhat warmer.
Excellent facility, equipment, and staff.
Staff very friendly, professional, and helpful!
I really like the Personal Training experience-Kelly Puccia was my trainer.
Really like the new E-Gym.

Great classes, instructors and staff. Everyone is friendly and helpful.
People are welcoming. The instructors for swimming are very friendly. I enjoy the other people who are attending the class
I love working as a Group Fitness Instructor and Personal Trainer at the Manlius YMCA. I have had the opportunity to meet so many new people and inspire them to get fit. I love what I do and I love the community we have here.
No weirdos. Freedom to workout alone and get bothered.

A variety of programs for each generation
