Member Testimonials
I love the friendly connections I've made at the Y and starting my day in the pool and locker room. I'm very glad that Khay is back teaching yoga on Sundays and I also really love Rose as a yoga teacher. Thank you for bringing her in and providing a really strong beginner yoga program on Sundays again.
One concern I have is with the steam room. Apparently it breaks the steam room in the women's locker room to spray the sensor with cold water, but if you just activate the steam room using the dial, it does not get very steamy or stay hot. Most people want the steam room to be hot, especially because the sauna is set at a medium temperature. Is it possible to set the steam room sensor at a higher temperature so that it stays hotter when activated using the dial? And then to post information about this so the steam room is less likely to be broken? This would be much appreciated. It would also be great if you could fix the tiling in the steam room.

First and foremost, the staff is wonderful!
Everyone seems to be willing to assist in any way possible.
I like that my daughter is learning new things that she may not learn in class by doing fun experiments. I also like that Zumba classes are offered, and that the kids seem to get plenty of free play with developmental toys.
Reasonable pricing for pool, classes, and gym access. Membership is cross honored by other YMCAs when traveling. Options for family memberships to include spouse and children.
The Y is not just a gym, it is a community!
I would like to see more variety of classes ie missing belly dancing! And maybe more acquatic classes at different times of day
I like the variety of ways to exercise at the Park Street Y.
Great place to go to work out and take classes
I highly recommend it
So far it's great. So many activities to do - cardio and muscle machines of course, but also group classes, racket sports, the pools, and sauna/steam are great.
Great staff, good programs, supports our community
Social, weight and balancing classes, times available to workout, sand friendly staff.
Convenient location, fully equipped.
EVERYTHING
The classes and the instructors.
I enjoy the Y, it's very welcoming, has terrific senior classes during the day, extensive weight training for all levels. What is missing is Back to Abs classes during the morning timeframe. Since Teresa V left last year, this has been a gaping hole for daytime classes at the Y. I do hope you find someone to lead Back to Abs during the morning slots. Teresa was a rare find who was knowledgable, enthusiastic, engaging and supportive.
I like the size of the facility and the fact that I never have a problem finding a machine to use or treadmill due to overcrowding. I also like the friendliness of the staff, I am always greeted with a smile a friendly hello.
It's a community, and for the past 10 years, it has been essential to my mental health.
