Instructors and other staff. Other members.
I love my membership at the Y because there is something for everyone; free weights, classes, private areas to work out and so much for families.
My visits to the YMCA start with a positive interaction with the people at the front desk. They are always friendly and helpful, and greet me with a smile. The women's locker room is generally clean with plenty of open lockers. The pool is always a delight! Occasionally I encounter unpleasant interactions with non-swimmers in the lap pool (i.e., people cooling off in a lane or taking up a lane to do water exercises instead of being in the other pool), but that is rare. I have had a personal trainer for the machines as well as a private swim lesson for flip turns and both teachers have been helpful and knowledgeable. Thank you for providing an exceptional space to visit and work out!
Professional staff, well organized cleanliness of the facility and willingness to always assist you.
Clean facilities, many exercise options regarding classes, activities, machines. Kind and helpful staff. Competent instructors. Camps. Diversity. The Y checks all the boxes!
The Tom Taylor arts programming is diverse and offers many different kinds of classes such as painting, drawing, printmaking, theater arts, dance, story time, and creative writing. The arts program puts on dance and theater productions that are successful and help to build community. Arts programming acknowledges that people can grow and develop in more ways than just physical exercise. It is important for children to have these memorable experiences that develop their creativity and social skills. Adults who participate in the arts programming have opportunities to build relationships and immerse themselves in activities that support both physical and cognitive health. As a dance and writing instructor at Tom Taylor, I am very familiar with the arts programs and have had incredibly positive feedback from members about how participation in arts programming has changed their lives.
There are lots of things to do. The facilities are nice and clean,
Good programs for all ages.

I loved the adult tap class.
I have just finished a second series of Creative Writing classes with Regina Sadono, and I wanted to share that I greatly appreciate this class. Regina is an excellent instructor who puts careful planning into every class. She develops engaging lesson plans and activities that encourage participants to practice and share their writing. A group of regular participants is forming, which allows for sharing in a trusted environment and for developing relationships. In short, this is a VERY special class.
