Please move Debra's classes to a larger gym space! It is a great class, lots of people attend, but it is too crowded
I lost 200 lbs since I joined in 2025! The Lakewood Y is my happy place! I really enjoy the water aerobic workouts and friendly warm atmosphere. This place helped save my life and I’m really active now. I can do a lot of things that I couldn’t do before. I love it here! Thank you Lakewood Y!
We love the size, not too big not too small of a facility. Gymnastics class is my son’s favorite, he’s done it multiple times in a row now. It’s a great place!
I enjoy the friendly greeters when signing in and I enjoy the overall atmosphere. The areas are also kept nicely clean. Thank you
I enjoy the friendly faces that greet me when I come in, the ones who have taken the time to get to know my name, and the friends I have met. I am grateful for pool classes as it enables me to be able to move around despite my disability and it helps me with my mobility while out of the water.
Friendly staff and convenient.
Variety of classes and times. Staff and members are friendly and helpful. The cafe and fireplace are a nice bonus.

I love the friendly staff at the Lakewood YMCA. They are always polite and eager to help. All of the programs are very good. My only wish is for more private changing and shower rooms.

Referee Brianna Lambert has been amazing. My son talked about her the day before his game and asked if the blue haired lady would be there. When we said yes, he was excited to play. She is kind and patient to the kids. To my family and I, we consider her a pillar to t the YMCA staff.
I think your receptionist staff is amazing, especially during registration week. My home base YMCA is Pearl St YMCA. After a couple registration experiences at Pearl St, I quickly learned that I didn't want go through this type experience registration period again. The number system that Lakewood incorporates during registration works wonderfully. I remember during two registration periods at Pearl St YMCA, I got at there at 3:15pm and waited until registration time. There was about 5 members there for registration at this time and we all were seated where the staff told us to wait until registration time. The lobby filled up to standing room only as registration time got closer. All the people standing up for registration and the people just walking in all registered before the members that were sitting in the waiting area ahead register time. The staff did nothing in our defense.
I like everyone is kind!
I like the pool and the Hot tub. The staff are very friendly, helpful and kindness. They help me in and out of the lap pool and the hot tub. I'm so greedy appreciate theirs kindness towards me. I like to thanks to Mike, Rubby, Zack, and a few other lifeguard and to Trish the swimming instructor she make sure I have a land to swim and Elizabeth the Arabic instructor she always comes and greet me.
Thanks so much for making me through my day! I can come to swim 3-4 times a week. May God's blessings and protection upon everyone in the name of Jesus Christ 🙏 Amen 🙏

I like the facility and the staff. We've been coming for quite a while and now know many folks that we see every day and that's great too!
Clean environment; modern machines; friendly staff
Please fix or do an overhaul of the steamroom in the men's locker room. This steamroom is down way too much and too often. It is one of the pleasures to use after a wokout and it is frustrating when it is out of order.

Great classes and class teachers!!!
