Member Testimonials
I love the 7am classes!
How friendly and welcoming the Y is
The Masters Swim program at the Poole Family YMCA is absolutely incredible—it’s one of the best I’ve experienced. The staff is always friendly, and the facility is consistently clean and welcoming. In my opinion, this is the best YMCA facility in the area!
Clean friendly, a lot of different things to do and a lot of classes and programs
Clean facility, good quality equipment, and friendly staff.
I do miss the old elliptical trainers though (Precor I think ?) -- they had longer strides.
I love working out in the Thrive classes. The instructor’s are fun and knowledgeable. Always giving options for various skill levels. And we always have great music to go along with the workouts. Everyone feels welcome. And the members I’ve met are welcoming and nice. I look forward to going to class each week.
The classes are great instructors are great, and the staff is friendly!
