Member Testimonials
I very much enjoy working out at Taylor YMCA. I typically take yoga classes and work out with weights. The staff are friendly and helpful and the instructors are professional and well qualified. I do miss some pieces of the old layout. There is too much equipment in the areas that historically were designated for individual floor work. Now there is often not enough space for mat work in the weight areas. There are also never enough free weights it seems. Just my observation based on my preferences!
Family environment, great staff, great facilities, great members.

I very much like the pool. Although I have not availed myself of the exercise equipment in the main building, I intend to in the future.
The staff and facilities
Couldn't have been more friendly and informable at the front desk very nice
I enjoy exercising at the Y. The facility and equipment are clean and well maintained. The staff is helpful and friendly. I was a bit disappointed in the loss of abdominal exercise equipment with the recent refresh.
Variety of group classes daily, especially yoga, pilates, barre.
They have an active Senior engagement group with opportunities for those who would like to learn or engage in pickleball, or other sports, Bible study, and trips to build connections, to prevent so much isolation and increase mental enhancement. In addition, they have available numerous fitness classes for those who have the physical stamina, etc.
Great fitness class options, nice, friendly, helpful staff. Clean and lots of equipment that works well.
Nice people working there. Clean updated facility. Raquetball courts are mainly what I use there and it's hard to see the schedule online. The old schedule tool was much easier to use.
The staff and the programming. Love all the pickup volleyball and basketball options. Might need more yoga as it books up so fast!!! And always very clean facilities
Hello,
I like the warm safe feeling you get when you walk in through the doors. From the people you meet as you enter to the people behind the desk. I enjoy watching the staff and their kind interactions they have amongst themselves. Even when you get to see the children they are happy and being attended too. The warmth is all around even as you workout the spirt of "We are in this together" is felt. It the culture they have created that stands out.
The aquatic center and the classes
I really enjoy the access to an environment that promotes fitness without a lot of the toxic masculinity nonsense you experience at a lot of gyms. i.e., a more welcoming environment without the macho hogwash.
Convenience
Very friendly and helpful staff.
Clean atmosphere & locker rooms.
Ms. Barbara at the desk on Saturday morning (January 13th) was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. We had several questions and she answered all of them and never made us feel rushed. We could tell that she is a genuinely good person and that she enjoys helping people. I hope that this feedback can find it's way back to her/her supervisor because she was incredible.
Seeing everyone having a good time staying healthy.
My home base Y is Northwest Y which is closer to me. I love Taylor's Thrive trips. I enjoy all Thrive group classes but Taylor fills up within 5 minutes of being open for booking. I think you could use a larger room so more seniors could attend. I was first introduced to pickleball at Taylor's indoor times. The outdoor courts are super. I hope to get to attend water fitness when it gets warmer out. Staff is always friendly and helpful. My grandson attended your daycamp for month of August and loved it. He looks forward to coming again.
I like that there is an indoor track I do wish there was more equipment (both cardio and strength)
