Member Testimonials
The staff, the environment, the classes.
I fell leaving the racquetball court, tripping over the raised bar in the floor. I needed xrays of my wrist. Please consider eliminating that bar in the doorway.
Friendly and helpful staff. Water aerobics classes are wonderful exercise.
Shannon! She was so delightful and what a hard worker. She remembered me, asked me how I was doing and I really felt special.
Sofia the ballet instructor was wonderful with my 3 year old.
I would like to eee the youth gym schedule on the app.
Friendly staff, great instructors for exercise classes. A wide variety of different classes. I’ve taken two watercolor classes with Susan, an excellent instructor and my husband has taken both the watercolor class and a drawing class.
Friendly staff and atmosphere! My kids love going to the Y
The classes have been wonderful for the whole family. Mom loves Yin Yoga and our 5 year old daughter has enjoyed rock climbing, preschool ballet with Sophia and the camps!
Great facility, lots of classes for me and my kids
Miss Amanda, Austin, and Mercy have done a great job with Max (5) during gymnastics. They've helped him practice good form and build confidence. He's loved building his skills while getting his wiggles out in a fun and constructive way.
Excited to continue gymnastics at the Y thanks to you all.
Thank you!

Kind instructors, fun classes for the kids, clean and safe space
Dance with Mrs Tara!
I am thoroughly enjoying the creative writing class at Tom Taylor YMCA. This class has really opened my eyes to become a better writer. This class will help me get my current book closer to being published. I can not say enough about my experiences at this YMCA!
Loving the art classes! I take as many as I can get to. LOVE the drawing class this session! Rick is an exceptional teacher; very patient, organized, and knowledgeable. As is the watercolor teacher. I am very impressed with the amount of preparation these teachers do for their classes, both in thought and deed. In my humble opinion, any adult art class should be at least an hour and a half. Especially considering how much the teachers have invested in our experience.
The staff/teachers are so friendly and the classes are fun!!
Huge appreciation for lifeguard Isaac
Regina is one of the most knowledgeable and kind ballet teachers I have ever worked with. I danced ballet seriously for 15 years and have been dancing for over 30 so I have lots to compare! I love that she explains the French meaning of steps and helps students of all levels get a good class. She has built lots of camaraderie among us students. I hope for the Y to create performance opportunities for adults to perform separately from children’s recitals to continue to build the program. Exit Space in Seattle has a good model for this.
The adult ballet class has been absolutely wonderful to be a participant in! Great instructor with 10/10 on people skills and patience with beginners. Really grateful it exists!! Wish it went on year round but I'll definitely be signing up for the next couple months.
I love the YMCA. I joined last year and it’s been great. I do wish you would bring back the evening Pilates followed by yin yoga class combo in the evenings though it was so great and so many people really enjoyed being able to take those classes back to back.
Equipment keepup and lots up opportunities to maintain and improve health
Cleanliness, friendly staff, sufficient enough equipment at all times of day that I use
Friendly staff and community focus. All the classes offered at Tom Taylor are really outstanding. Also, there is a wide range of classes offered.
Great facility
Co workers.
The equipment is clean and well maintained with lots of availability. The staff is friendly and helpful.
Caring community experience with each visit.
Love the new hydro and cryo chairs. Would also like to see red light therapy - and co-ed sauna like Silverdale.
Would also like to see equipment like Osteostrong in Mercer Island. So many people have osteoporosis - this equipment would be a natural way to improve.
And finally please add more muscle up classes and more weights. We are always searching for more!
11PM swim class instructor did not show up due to family emergency. A classmate named Lindsey did an outstanding job filing in for her. She is a regular attendee, but I thought deserved a pat on the back from YMCA staff too!
The adult tap dancing class on Wednesday mornings, taught by Gina, is amazing! Wonderful camaraderie between the class members, such great fun to make music with my feet, and it's a great cardio workout to boot! Keep offering tap! Thank you
