Member Testimonials
I love the staff there - they make all the difference!
Great
The best thing about Central Branch is the men’s health club, unique from the other Y locations here. It would be greatly missed if ever there was a decision to close it!
Central Branch is also sometimes quieter and more (but not exclusively) adult oriented, which I appreciate in my age category as I know other friends do.
Friendly staff and clean facility
I love this Y! The people are nice, and responsive if there's ever anything that needs addressed. I grudgingly will go to the other locations if I need 24 hour access, but this is home!
Nice, friendly atmosphere.
Employees are friendly, helpful and professional.
Recently Danielle and Shawn did a great job of working out some account issues!!
Clean and friendly
great staff
The relaxed vibe is a pleasant respite from the hectic downtown outside the gym. While being in the heart of the city, it still manages to be less busy than other, more rural branches - or at least feels less busy, which is great when you exercise as a form of relaxation.
The space is always clean, bright, comfortable. Staff is friendly, responsive, and helpful. They always seem ready to go when that extra mile and are open to suggestions.
Class offerings are good.
It is a welcoming place.
The pool is awesome! The temperature is just right. There are a variety of water classes, including aqua aerobics and aqua Zumba!
Super friendly staff. Not crowded, easy access to equipment.
The staff is always friendly and helpful. They keep the towels picked up and keep the place clean

I love the welcoming feeling, the highly engaged staff, and all of the friends and neighbors who workout and socialize there. It is far more than a gym, its a community!
