Friendly staff, great facilities & Great classes!
I feel very comfortable coming to Valley of the sun YMCA. I have tried many of the classes available and have found the ones that are right for me. I have made many YMCA friends and enjoy seeing the same people at the classes at each class when I am there. The staff and instructors are helpful friendly people which helps with the feeling of it's the right place to be.
Location, amenities and friendly staff!
Coach Monica and Rita for the Cave Creek AZ youth volleyball are amazing!!
We have had a great experience with the youth basketball program. Our coach has been wonderful! He positively encourages the kids to do their best. I also love the flexibility to make suggestions on the day of the week you can practice, as to not overwhelm someone’s schedule.
Everything has been wonderful! Well organized facility for kids basket ball.
Great programs that helps get familiar with a sport. Family friendly & fun!
They are very family. Love the sports morality they instill in kids learning to play team sports. I the friendly attitudes from the people working there.
our coaches are amazing!
I have been coaching and my son has been playing in the YMCA leagues since he was 4- he is 8 now. Drew who runs the program is responsive, organized and helpful. From asking for advice on coaching to simple scheduling questions Drew is always responsive and helpful. The staff is excellent. The emphasis on sportsmanship is awesome. I couldn’t be happier with the basketball program. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to get their child involved in youth sports.
My daughter has had a great experience playing both rec basketball and volleyball. She's learned new skills, grown as a player, and made new friends. We sign up every season and wish there was an option for recreational leagues for junior high and high school age kids who may not be on teams at school but who still just want to play for fun (as opposed to trying out for the comp teams at the older levels). We love the clean and comfortable work out environment as well.
Wonderful coaches, refs, and overall atmosphere!
It is a family friendly environment. I have made a lot of great connections and built some great relationships here.
Family friendly. Clean facility. So many options and great communication. My son plays basketball and we love it there! I love how cool the staff is about lowering the rim for us when we show up just to practice a little. I wouldn't join another gym if it were free.
Great coach and friendly teammates…. My son loves it!
Fun, energetic staff.
I love that I go and meet up with other gals and have coffee after exercise. Knowing others will be there makes me accountable. I have been going since this YMCA opened.

Extensive facilities that are clean.
Options for using machines on my own or a multitude of classes
Love the convenience and variety available. I mainly use the fitness classes and am very happy with them and the instructors!
I have been there since the day it opened. Staff is always pleasant and helpful. It is as clean as the day it opened. The availability and precautions during the covid years gave members a needed respite every day. There is no better way for me to start my day than to be at the YMCA.
I love the welcoming greetings every time I check in.
I enjoy the facility but in particular I truly appreciate and support the two handball courts and the great friendships I’ve developed with many players at the Desert Foothills facility.
I appreciate the fact that Chris Hart is so very approachable and is a very good person to lead the facility. He seems extremely active in insuring everything is in tip top shape.
Thanks Chris!
All employees are friendly and knowledgeable. Itake my four year old to the play area while I work out and she always has a fun and safe experience a d looks forward to returning.
I take classes and the teachers have great workouts and take the time to answer any questions. The gym is well equipped for a good workout a d again if I have any questions concerning one of the machines the personal trainers are more than willing to assist.
The Y also offers pickleball, which I plan to start playing next Fall.
so many options of classes
indoor pickleball
whole family included
community program focus
Love the open space, love the brightness.
Equipment could be a bit cleaner, i.e. weights rack and mirrors.
Love seeing my fellow rats.
