Staff, facility, and fellow members
Everything likes it
New equipment. Friendly staff.
I have always enjoyed the downtown Tacoma Center Y. It’s always clean, both the pool and hot tub never are enjoyable. I prefer a larger pool but it’s my go to Y when lessons completely occupy pools at Lakewood and Pearl Street. Their weight room is excellent as well!
it's a great daily experience!
Services for community members of all ages in a safe and caring environment!
Thank you!
I go to Pearl Street Y. I used to go to Tacoma center years ago. That's the beauty of where we are. There are three YMCAs in a 3 mile radius... you choose. The Y has been a stable, positive and fun place for me. I am so inspired by the Y community. I do classes with a woman who is around 85 and she shows up consistently and could kick my bum. I love that and I hope to be one of these people. Motion is lotion. Get moving to stay moving!
Variety and availability of equipment
Sense of community
I like the sense of community and the variety of group classes. The indoor track is perfect for running, rain or shine. The young adult discount also allows me to afford the membership, I'm greatly appreciative of the pricing!
Great classes. I attend the 10:30 senior fit class and have really enjoyed it. The instructors are so great and I love that classes are different all of the time so we don't get bored. I've got other friends to join because of this class. Name removed
Pilates and yoga! Cleanliness, friendliness, local use of fundraising, helpfulness getting started, excellent instructors who have mastered cueing - I like to close my eyes to also get a therapy session during gentle yoga. I am really happy I can drop in rather than pay for missing when an unexpected schedule change arises.
Friendly atmosphere...great access to many machines...always a wonderful experience !!
Diverse range of activities, plenty of space, and very clean
Always consistent 👍
Friendly, helpful staff! Clean facilities.
Every thing
Lots of equipment, super clean, people are nice!
Friendly people, nice offering of classes.
I wish there was a dedicated Pickleball class (like a 6 week winter session, included with your membership) where you meet weekly for 1 hour, learn the game and play against other beginners. The open pickleball sessions in the evening are a bit intense for a brand new pickleball player.
Friendly people, nice pool
Lot of exercise opportunities, and good people
First off, I've been working out there for years - since about 2 or 3 years after they opened. So it feels like home. I love the fact that most of the time, there's no kids around. The Tacoma Center Y has everything my partner and I need/want - weight machines, free weights, all the different machines for aerobics, a pool. And, I love the fact that it's not huge. That may be a drawback for some, but for me, it adds to the comfort of the place. And, incidentally, it's 4 miles from our home and a very pleasant walk and so unless it's pouring, I love to walk/jog the 4 miles there and then have a pleasant 4 mile stroll home after working out. Makes for a great day. Oh, and the staff are really wonderful - pleasant, cheerful, helpful. You couldn't ask for more.
Great staff. Nice facility
