Member Testimonials
I like the ability to run indoors on the track, use the Expresso bike, the pads to stretch, and the variety of equipment to strengthen muscles.
Beautiful facility,
great teachers with a huge selection of classes and programs
Love everything about the Y - except there are not enough of the smaller kettlebells. We need more so that they can live permanently on the green grass area - 8's, 10's 12's, 15's, 20's and 25's.
They sometimes live on the tower in the closet, and trainers grab then to use as well, leaving those of us who workout on the fake grass with limited options.
Thanks for listening!
I like the classes that are offered. I just wish that there was a 10-15 min time inbetween them to be able to go to two classes in one day. Or that they wouldnt over lap in some cases.
I also love how clean the place is.
Everyone is very friendly and helpful. Love the equipment and many of the classes
Clean, professional and welcoming.
The inter-generational mix of the membership. Interacting with those of other generations is not only fun but intellectually challenging. It reminds us all that not everyone is alike. They don't look alike, act alike, or communicate alike. All of this is good, as are the myraid other things that make us different and yet the same. The Y represents a place where that difference can be expressed and shared in cross generational enviroment.
I've enjoyed the warmth and welcoming environment of the Y. The staff are friendly, helpful and caring. The Y offers a wide range of activities for all ages.

I would like to see the lap pool open to more lap swimming.
An excellant facility and staff!!
My water aerobics experience started in 1997when I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia and joining the old, downtown YMCA in Olympia, then Pearl, until Tom Taylor opened. With rheumatoid arthritis an operated back, two replaced arm/shoulder joints and a messed up knee I’m sure it’s this workout that has kept me walking!
The people in my group are my friends! The instructor, Marty, is great and I make it a point to get to know and remember the names of all lifeguards. They help me in and out of the pool and bar none are kind, respectful. The Y is my social place!!!

The people who work there are all so friendly, warm, and welcoming! I am always greeted when I come in to the building, and everyone is very helpful. The training program for new members is great, it was so nice to be taken around and taught how to use all the exercise machines and a fitness plan set up. The facility is always clean and tidy. Thank you for such a wonderful YMCA in our community!
The Y is a wonderful facility for everyone. An activity for any age group. The staff is outstanding; positive, caring, knowledgeable. And a special thanks to the nursery. The toddlers are always so happy. Great work everyone!
Not fond of new equipment - small fonts, no ESPN station on live TV.
