Member Testimonials
I love my regular classes, the instructors are so great: Marianne, Molly, and Heather.
Staff consideration and friendliness, easy going approach to resolved problem of using the equipment.
The Finley Y does an outstanding job of supporting our community through its events, educational opportunities, and special programs. What makes it especially wonderful is the people and the warm, welcoming, and inclusive environment they create. It’s a place where everyone can feel supported, connected, and part of a community.
The Friendly and courteous staff and the equipment the membership in general. The environment gives encouraging and positive energy.
Multiple instructors in small groups.
Children are divided by ability. The lead of the program (Ms. Jada) is very hands-on. She is there for every class overseeing the instructors and she remembers my kids from previous lessons so she knows how to push them to do more. This is the best Y to get swim lessons for kids.
Variety of activities and professional & friendly staff.
I enjoy using the gym almost daily and also enjoy the various activities there are for my children. The staff is always wonderful and friendly.
The people who come to the Y and the staff are friendly. I love that we have several days of indoor pickleball. The new downstairs renovation should be great. Thank you for all that you do.
I like the friendly, caring instructors and Y staff.
Everything- staff, building, equipment, classes, trainers
Andrew provided excellent, well-paced instruction, appropriate to the group. Then he offered solid guidance, critique and advice to each individual. The overall vibe was extremely supportive and helpful.
I love the feedback instructors provide after each class.
Small student to teacher ratio. They work with each person based on their skills and weaknesses. Affordable and convenient. Also I would like to personally give a HUGE Shout out to Grace!!! She is so sweet and caring. She was amazing with our little girl. Our little girl talks about her through out the week between lessons. Grace made this experience for our daughter exciting and you can tell she loves what she does!!
The whole program was very well organized. Our teacher, ms Kelly made my son feel so welcome and enoureged during the lessons.
The staff were very patient and professional with our 3 year old daughter. They encouraged her to try new things without pressuring her, and made her feel comfortable while learning.
I like that the instructor gave us personal feedback. I also like that the course was an introduction to a broad range of swimming basics, like butterfly and diving and safety issues.
Of all the classes I go to at Kerr and Finley, Brenda's Pilates class is my favorite!!
I also feel welcome by the greeters when I scan in, and I can always find a step climber or rowing machine available to use while I wait for my class to begin.
Located in a nice community. Facilities are typically well staffed and clean. I feel like my kids are safe when we visit our YMCA and thats really I care about.

The people who work at the A.E. Finely YMCA are — without exception — extraordinarily friendly, helpful, smart, informed and welcoming. In my 73 years of living I’ve never seen an organization where the culture is so helpful and uplifting.

Excellent customer service and a very welcoming atmosphere! The staff is always friendly, helpful, and professional. They make you feel welcome from the moment you walk through the door and are always willing to answer questions and provide assistance. It’s great to be part of a place where people genuinely care about their members. Keep up the great work! Highly recommend the YMCA!
Swimming. Sauna. Steam room.
I love the Finley YMCA. I enjoy my classes with Jodi so much. She is fantastic as is Molly B. The ladies at the front desk are always warm and welcoming. I also love the special events offered such as the bus to the state fair.
One suggestions for an enhanced experience would be to add a cold plunge to the locker rooms. This would really be a great health add to the Y.
Good facilities with friendly staff. Lots of programs and sports available for kids and adults.

Everything!
But, mostly the welcoming attitudes of the staff, all the way from check-in throughout the experience.
