It’s nice to see the Y back to the sparkling clean we have come to expect. Well done!
The pool and water aerobics
Love the caliber of instructors. Plus the variety of classes for both seniors and kids is awesome! The only problem I recently ran into was the lack of clarification on the free guest passes that I signed up for when I renewed my membership.
I love seeing your core values of respect, caring, honesty, and responsibility reflected in your team members.
I love playing pickleball and attending the TRX and Vinyasa Yoga classes. The instructors, Jenny and Morgan are very engaging and enthusiastic!
It warms my heart to see how many mature adults attend the classes offered. I love to surround myself with other members who value health, fitness, having fun, and being active in the community.
Every Thing.
I like that it is clean and that someone always says 'hello' and 'goodbye.' Equipment all in good working order, too and great selection of classes, etc. Super facility!

People. Activities offered.
The staff and instructors are the best! The facility is always in tip-top shape.
Range of exercise options. Relatively convenient. Value for money.
Very friendly, fun dance classes, ‘normal’ people working toward being more healthy. Feels welcoming & not competitive. And very fun to bring my grandson to swim/play in the pool!
Tom Taylor Y stands out not only as a premier fitness center but as a community cornerstone, owing much of its success to its exceptional leadership and inclusive, family-friendly culture. The executive director exemplifies this ethos, demonstrating a level of commitment and humility that is truly inspiring. I have personally witnessed the director taking on the most challenging tasks, from maintenance to customer service, especially during times when the team was short-handed. This hands-on approach not only ensures the smooth operation of the facility but also sets a powerful example for the entire staff.
The phrase "Attitude reflects leadership" resonates deeply with the atmosphere at Tom Taylor Y. It's evident in every aspect of the gym's environment, from the welcoming staff to the meticulously maintained facilities. The leadership's dedication to creating a supportive and professional atmosphere fosters a sense of belonging among members of all ages. This commitment to excellence and inclusivity makes Tom Taylor Y more than just a gym; it's a community hub where families can engage in healthy activities together in a supportive environment.
Whether you're seeking a place for personal fitness, family recreation, or community connection, Tom Taylor Y exceeds expectations. It's a testament to how visionary leadership and a positive culture can create an exceptional experience for every member. I wholeheartedly recommend Tom Taylor Y to anyone looking to join a gym that values professionalism, community, and a family-friendly atmosphere.

There is a wide variety of activities to choose from to become involved in. I have my favorite classes and enjoy all the instructors. I change it up according what I need with my available time and the Y's schedule of classes.
The membership are a joy to get to know. Same with the instructors. This is important for me to meet new people and deepen some friendships already made. There is this "positive vibe" throughout the facility with all Y staff.
Keep up the good work! I want to say one other positive statement. I want to thank the volunteers who bring their canine volunteers to the facility on Monday morning. That is a big plus for all the kids and adults. I love it. Many Thanks to all!

I am so glad we joined! We enjoy the classes and visit at least 3 times a week. Everyone is so friendly, we don't feel like newcomers. The facilities are impeccably clean! The building is well laid out, plenty of equipment for all to use. The instructors are knowledgeable and make working out a fun experience. We love seeing kids working out with their parents, and happy children going to the daycare play area. Being a member at the YMCA has enhanced our experience of this wonderful community of Gig Harbor. As small business owners in the Harbor, we also cater to families and community, and it's wonderful to see our guests while at the YMCA, and meet new potential guests to take on our sailing charter. I look forward to every visit to the YMCA and have told many of my friends and family what a wonderful facility we have here in Gig Harbor. Thanks to the staff for making my work out time so enjoyable.
