Member Testimonials
The “Y” isn’t just another gym. It’s a place which provides a supportive environment for social as well as physical health for all ages.
There are programs and activities for every level of fitness as well as opportunities for participating in small group studies and crafts.
It always seems like a happy place. Staff is helpful and available. So well cared for, always clean.
Clean and good assortment of equipment for weightlifting.
Only one complaint, could probably use signs or enforcement of not throwing or dropping weights“ in the freeway dumbbell area.
We have really enjoyed lessons at the Y. I was especially impressed with their ability to pivot when it turned out my four year old was not ready to have swim lessons with a male instructor. Everyone was so kind and understanding and came up with an easy solution for everyone.
Mostly clean lockers and pool
Good teacher and fun place for kids
The instructors are kind and friendly!
We absolutely love swim classes at the Gordon Y! Not only is the pool fantastic but we've had some amazing instructors as well. Particularly our current instructor! She's currently (3/17) teaching the preschool aged level 4 class at 6:30 on monday nights and I think she's my favorite instructor yet. I think she handles the children well in terms of keeping their attention and setting reasonable and firm expectations, but she also is really working on teaching them and challenging them in ways that other instructors haven't. Sometimes instructors tend to let the kids just do the fun things and then don't correct flaws they see. I understand that the kids like having fun, but swimming is an important skill, and our family allows our swimmer to have fun in the water before and after class, so we appreciate when she is really LEARNING and taking it seriously in swim class.
The staff is friendly and my kids learn a lot from the teachers. They are always willing to educate me on what skills my kids might need to pass the current class. Love them ❤️
Instruction is great this session.
They're included in my membership price
The swim instructors are fun and relatable my daughter has learned so much and loves going
They don't put pressure on the kids to do the activities
They are included in membership, so my kids can easily retake levels if they are slow to progress without the pressure to move on and gain skills quickly.
The instructors are kind and so patient. Both of them did a great job at keeping the children focused and on task. This was our first experience with swim lessons and we are eager to sign up for more.
The Gordon 'Y' has been there for me when I needed rehab from surgery and the pandemic. Enjoying the Book Club this year! Thanks!
Pool and hot tub are the best in Pierce County...
I'm very pleased with Gordon Family YMCA experience. My 2 year old daughter and I started attending the Y at the beginning of January, just a few months ago. We do attend regualry. With my temporary financial difficulties we were given passes to join the Y for a few months and I'm in the process of getting a full membership for myself. For now, I'll just continue paying for Child Watch for my daughter and later I'll enroll her in classes. While I take care of my own well being through this challenging season in our lives, my daughter can be with other children for maximum 2 hours a day while I workout. That's a win win for both of us.
Thanks Y

The Gordon Family YMCA has a variety of activities for all ages. I attended Silver & Fit Class and was amazed at what the YMCA provides. I use the pool for physical therapy and am glad it is up and running again after COVID. I will now go down more often and participate in more classes that are available to me. The YMCA is doing a great job in Sumner, WA.
