I love the Y experience that both my wife and I have. Desert Foothills Y is amazing; a beautiful facility with amazing staff. I want to particularly call out Jen and Deb, our spin instructors. They are absolutely the best ever, and the community they’ve fostered and nurtured among the spin community is a really, really big deal. Above and beyond that, Elisha Wellman, our mutual personal trainer, is just amazing. I worked with a really good personal trainer for nearly 15 years before we moved here. I didn’t think I’d ever find anyone nearly as capable. With acknowledgement to my former trainer, Elisha is head and shoulders above. Who would have thought I’d find that skill and commitment at the Y?
Now, all that being said …. and Chris are you listening … please take better care of your sunk capital equipment cost. It’s really annoying to be an annual donor to the Y, see the significant capital investment in amazing equipment, and have 5-6 spin bikes not working at any given time …. and the trainer bike consistently not able to connect to the display. You have an amazing asset here, but you’re not caring for it. Please do better.
Thanks.
Mike
