Easy access and variety of
Machines.
The desk person was responsive to our questions, and very helpful in directing us to where we wanted to go! Very clean facility!! It was also very nice not having to walk through pigeon poop (dowtowm YMCA parking in the GVSU garage ... very disgusting considering most people wear their shoes in the facility, or if they don't, then who is cleaning the lockers!)
Serious but friendly workout environment. Plenty of program offerings and lots of equipment. Nice and clean facility.
The people the facility, the atmosphere and the kindness
Great group ex classes
It's ok, I just wish it has sci fitness recumbent rowers where the seat rotates and slides off for wheelchair users. I know they are expensive and some people abuse the machines but that is one thing I wish you could do, another would be exercise ball bases with stretch cord attachment. I am trying not to be too picky but beside this everything else is good. The neighborhood promotes the facility very well.
Great water aerobics class
Everybody is happy.
The Walking Track.
I really like the variety of classes (aqua cardio, fitness classes, yoga) available to my husband and I as retirees. Our son, also a member, really liked the Tuesday night aqua cardio classes and was disappointed that it was discontinued. He swims a lot of laps, but the Tuesday class was different in interesting ways and provided an outlet for other full time workers we met there. Also, I love that you guys have coffee available for the early birds coming to class, but I am a little sad that it's pulled at 10 am most days. I also go to the Lighthouse YMCA on Fridays and Saturdays, and am impressed that they promote members staying for coffee afterwards. It makes it a bit nicer to meet new people. Just a thought...
It's a great, clean gym. The staff are kind, and I especially love that I can purchase a week long pass for when I'm traveling into town for work!
Gym hours
Just about everything. Like our swim and water aerobics instructors.
Disappointed that there are not more older adult exercise classes. Need cardio drumming class.
It is a very friendly and calm environment, does not have all of the nonsense that goes on at commercial gyms.
