I had a great experience taking swim lessons at the Y. While I had learned to swim when I was younger, it was really beneficial to get tips on my technique -- I now feel much more confident that I can get a good workout in the pool.
In addition, Gaudi (not sure on spelling!) was a knowledgeable and kind instructor, and the overall class dynamic was really positive and supportive. Highly recommended.
I love the way the help my kid to overcome challenges, ms. Markell is great and all the team
The coaches are great, they know how to work with the kids by motivating them to get them where they should be! First name removed
Good facility, great teacher, makes the kids feel comfortable and have fun while learning how to swim.
I appreciate the activities provided for the kids. Also the counselors are great at Brookdale!
Kids have a lot of fun, they are really great about managing allergies, and about communication.
I love the relationships the counselors build with the students, and the convenience of knowing that my daughter is in good hands.
Thank you for all the help you extended to my daughter during her aftercare program. We appreciate all of you.
Counselors are great at managing all of the kids.
We’ve been at the Y for kids swim lessons since 2014. Mostly at Geyer until the kids aged out. Over that time, it’s been amazing to watch the aquatics program develop, eg introducing the stage system, and grow. We like that the teachers focus on the kids at all times and encourage them to do their best. (Other programs we have tried - often was the case that instructor was on phone or chatting with friends instead of paying attention to kids.) Transitioning to the “big Y” was difficult for my shy kids, but now they’re getting used to it and really love the big pool and coaches!
Lessons are good in general, but they are great if your teacher is Tommy. Tommy really pushes the kids with timely feedback and encouragement.
We have very much enjoyed our lessons with Mr Billy! He makes the classes fun and engaging, and we feel like our boys are learning the fundamental swimming skills we wanted them to start learning at this age. He is a wonderful instructor and we hope to be in an upcoming class with him soon. Thank you!
We love Nishuane after care! The staff is so kind and upbeat, and my kid come home happy

Lisa taj wants too work for the ymca
Very comprehensive gym with virtually everything... Especially a pool! Full locker room with sauna, stream room and showers. Very clean. Great family membership price. Very nice staff and wonderful class instructors... All included, no extra fees! Where do you find that these days?!
Great gym room with lots of heavy weights (squat rack, etc.), lots of cardio equipment so it's not too crowded when I want to go, very friendly staff, and swim lessons for my daughter.
I work at the ELC and don’t have time to take advantage of my membership. I’d I did I know it would be great!
very easy welcoming place. Really like that there are different teachers, teaching different classes and so much choice!
Been a member - on and off - for a long time, always found the Y to provide the amenities I want, the staff is always friendly, the patrons congenial. A great place to visit and use.
