Member Testimonials
I've only utilized the weight room a couple times
The facilities have the equipment I need, there are usually plenty of group classes for the cardio I want, the staff is friendly, instructors are good, and I love being able to use different locations. It’s an excellent value for the cost of membership. Plus, they support disadvantaged families in our community.

The pool
Positive vibs
Lots of equipment to use, lots of classes and the staff is always positive and friendly. The equipment is well maintained and clean. In fact, the whole facility is always clean. They have good hours that they are open which makes it convenient to use.
Well organized and staff and coaches do a great job explaining the sports
I enjoy the atmosphere, community culture and availability of resources. There are always ample available weight training machines and cardio machines whenever I go. I have been at various times of day and have never found the gym "too crowded." The YMCA is a bargain for the cost of access to classes, individual workout, two pools and locker rooms with sauna and steam rooms. I highly recommend!
First, I think the best Welcome Staff member is Ms Emma. Every morning you can count on her to start your day/work out like you're the most valued member. She does an excellent job.
I thoroughly enjoy the Swim Lessons I've been taking. I've signed up for several sessions back to back and continue to enjoy working with the instructors - Jenny and Leslie. I've watched them train others who are truly beginners; they explain steps thoroughly, have patience, encourage, provide positive feedback, and promote safety.
I also enjoy the Tuesday Chair Yoga class; although there needs to be something done about allowing individuals to attend the class who haven't been confirmed. Twice I've been confirmed and yet there are no chairs when I arrive. My suggestion would be to print a list of confirmed attendees and have individuals check off their name as they enter class. Maybe that will encourage people to do the right thing.
Sports at Finley always focus on the right thing - skill-building and sportsmanship over winning.
The leadership from Alex is top notch.
Great community!
I appreciate the care & dedication each teacher has shown in classes I've participated in.
I WOULD like to ask that discontinuing the Stretch class on Saturdays @ 4:00 be
re-examined/revisited!! There were at the very least, 10-12 participants each time and many of us need a class of that nature as opposed to Pilates or Cardio or classes w/ more strenuous planks, etc.
If it's hard to find the teachers (like Cuqiu or Jody) for that date & time, PLEASE consider offering it for another date & time.....PLEASE. I have injuries that are benefiting from that class.
Thanks much,

I think the YMCA does a great job! All the directors for each sport are very responsive, friendly, and professional. The YMCA provides a wonderful atmosphere for kids to play and learn different sports!
Friendly staff and sense of community.
The community and group fitness class instructors are the best ever. Not to mention the coffee.😁
My experience with her has been wonderful. I can schedule all my needs and I manage to exercise and take care of my health.
