Customer Testimonials
A large variety of events and activities daily. The staff are amazing and friendly. The lady that cleans the restrooms and common areas does a great job each day . It’s a place that welcomes everyone.
Meet great friends and they have classes for everything including exercise equipment
The Allen Senior Center provides a good variety of activities and makes it easy to sign up and pay for them. I especially like the day trips. I miss the extended trips that are 'more affordable'. But I can see why there are others who would like them.
the staff and the people are great
Clean, friendly people and lots of activities to choose from
The Grow Stronger together class that my wife and I attend every Tuesday and Thursday is excellent!! We’ve been going for 2+ years, the instructor (Tess) really knows her stuff, and each exercise allows the individual to do “what they can” “or what they feel like” which is wonderful given the diversity of ages in the class.
I really enjoy going to the Allen Sr. Center. There are many things to do and a work out room. What else do you need???
Everyone working/volunteering is so friendly
Very clean and always a helpful staff
Enjoy the chair volleyball very much! Great front desk, very friendly and helpful!
Relaxing facility, with 'on demand' coffee available.....
Allen Senior Center has always been a welcoming place.
I feel that I am treated with dignity and respect every time. The staff is professional and helpful.
There are many activities to choose from. A person can choose from many physical activities as well as all sorts of Crafting activities and educational activities.
I would highly recommend Allen Senior Center to anyone that is 60+ years old.
The amount of participation in classes. Friendly staff. Variety offered
The facility and staff were quite pleasant and helpful. The facility wasn’t overcrowded. The weight equipment was great for what I was looking to achieve. Thanks!!!
Fitness center and activities
Friendly and helpful
Everything. :) The staff is friendly and helpful. And the area is gorgeous! Very relaxing and stimulating at the same time.
The front desk personal are very friendly, knowledgeable and they make you feel so welcome to be apart of the center.
I've enjoyed my time since I've joined and it's been fun doing different activities. For me, I love the Cash Bingo, Water Color Therapy and Book Club. I'm sure there will be other activities that come along, but the facility if clean and maintained and the staff friendly.
The staff and members are very friendly. We enjoyed playing pool and ping pong, and look forward to using the exercise equipment and trikes. :)
I enjoy playing bunco and the mental aerobics classes.
I like the new updates. More variety of trips and activities. Staff has become more friendly/welcoming and takes time to say hello to the members.
Only improvement recommended
One place for gamers and freeing up break room for lunches and meeting before classes.
Too noisy
Need one bus that can accommodate day trips instead of two disability vans, present vans are limitedseating, crowded, uncomfortable seats. Replacing the two smaller city vans and need for two drivers.
Love the facilities; it is our go to place for our small senior's group on Tuesdays and Thursdays
I like the variety of activity choices and the pleasant instructors.

Really nice people. Great facility
It’s a great place. I enjoy the fitness and education classes. Instructors are knowledgeable and helpful. I like meeting new people.
At 83, I live with my son. I'm not able to drive so depend on my son or uber to take me to Dr appointments etc. The Allen Rec Center is my only other source of contact with the outside world, with the added bonus of offering me exposure to several enjoyable activities.

The facility is very nice: clean, roomy, and well equipped. I take Gentle Flow Yoga, Restorative Yoga, and Grow Stronger classes, all taught by Tess Thompson. She is a fantastic instructor, and I’m so glad I found her classes. I wish there were a way to expand the enrollment limit on the Grow Stronger class as I hear that there were many more people who wanted to enroll than could fit in the class as currently limited. I’m looking into evening classes as well since my husband works during the daytime and I’d love to get him into an evening class.
