Member Testimonials
Great facility, staff, and programs. I like the opportunity to get to know people while there.
Exploring all types of things to events
I just started yesterday!
The staff is very friendly, helpful and welcoming. I enjoy the classes that I have been taking with Joy, Lora, Kyle, Michelle O. and Paula. Each class has its own style. Every week the teachers have different exercises for their classes, and they all give you a challenging workout with adaptations as needed.
The entire operation is terrific, including the staff.
Friendly, helpful staff
Well-equipped
Variety of classes offered
Going to to the Y is many times the highlight of my day. Good friends have been made and the pleasant staff always makes my visit to the Y a good one.
Like family, friendly atmosphere, very welcoming. Members of all ages and fitness levels.
Need more 7:00/ 7:30am strength classes.
Social aspect, large equipment selection, clean shower rooms
I benefit physically, mentally and socially from the Thrive exercise programs designed for people 60 and over.
Great atmosphere, friendly staff, variety of classes at different times. Steam room ,sauna, pools.
Locker rooms, showers, and towels. Variety of weights and equipment.
It’s like family. . People know your name, make you feel welcome, and build relationships with other members.
A good array of classes are offered on a daily basis. Friendly staff and volunteers enhance the experience. I enjoy meeting many people in the classes. It's offered a means of socialization after many years of working.
I enjoy the childcare and the Pilates classes. Wish there was one every day!
Tye classes heard to the over 50. Wish recoups be more offered
We love the kid zone, workout classes, and family programs - soccer, basketball. And the pool!
Facilities always look nice and are clean, friendly and helpful staff, great atmosphere and great programs!
Equipment options and classes are good. However, some classes are getting crazy busy and far exceed the number of sign up slots available on website. Is there a way to vet the people in the class to ensure that they actually signed up? Otherwise there are days when I can barely get a spot in a class that I definitely have a spot in.
The friendly staff and great instructors!
Easy, good value for the money. I like knowing the YMCA is based on Christian principles and everyone is so nice and helpful.
I enjoy the Thrive courses. The Thrive courses helped me prepare for my knee surgery. I most enjoy the outdoor water fitness classes!
The classes ___ BUT not enough room as they fill up very fast.
The AP is tricky and can we please get a more politically correct opening photo on the Group Fitness Page. The one before this was colorful and non-race/gender specific. I suggest that a more politically correct generic fitness image is more inspiring. The current model looks angry and shouldn't fitness fun? Ho about generic and colorful like the previous opening page for the next one. And the AP is fussy. You have to go back and forth and it scrolls to off dates.
I like the basketball gym, the atmosphere is great with people that enjoy playing ball
Great instructor for the pilates class I took:) Jody
Options for exercise. Overall mission of YMCA.
Kindness of workers.
Towels provided.
Pools
I love the group classes and the friendships I have made.
The Y is more than a gym membership; it’s a community of people and families who support each other through fellowship, service and volunteering. I’ve made many friends during my group fitness classes and feel more connected to my neighbors.
I was impressed by the welcoming staff at the check-in counter. The towel service is appreciated and the cleanliness of the group fitness class and the locker rooms was on point. I look forward to being a member at the Y.
A.E. Finley Y’s staff makes you feel welcome. The facility is clean and well maintained.

The family feel to the facility.
